Abstract
Diseases associated with the human papilloma virus (HPV) are particularly common among men who have sex with men (MSM). Unlike heterosexual men, MSM do not benefit from the herd protection provided by the vaccination of girls. In this review, we synthesize the available evidence on HPV vaccination for MSM. We also present the recommendations of the Québec Immunization Committee (CIQ) in this regard, which are: to provide targeted vaccination for MSM up to 26 years of age and in-school vaccination of preadolescent boys since this is the best approach to take to have a real impact on the burden related to HPV in the MSM population and to provide direct protection for all men.
