Performance of human papillomavirus (HPV) mRNA testing and HPV 16 and 18/45 genotyping combined with age stratification in the triaging of women with ASC-US cytology

•The performances of the AHPV and AHPV-GT tests for triaging ASC-US cytology of a large sample size were compared.•Our results support AHPV testing with age stratification triaging for women with ASC-US cytology.•AHPV-GT testing may be a proper risk stratification method for women with AHPV-positive ASC-US cytology.
