Cost-Effectiveness of HPV-Vaccination of Boys Aged 12 in a Norwegian Setting [Internet].

Infection with high-risk human papilloma virus (HPV) types 16 and/or 18 is documented to be related to cervical, vulvar, vaginal, penile, anal and oropharyngeal cancer, while infection with low-risk HPV types 6 and/or 11 is documented to be related with genital warts. This economic evaluation examines the cost-effectiveness of vaccinating both 12-year-old boys and girls against HPV-infection compared to maintaining the current practice of vaccinating only 12-year-old girls.
