Evaluation of rabbits as experimental animal model for Herpes simplex virus type-2 (HSV-2) (HV-219 Strain) induced cervical carcinoma resulted in the development of a neoplastic condition in the form of leukoplakic patches only. On Papanicolaou’s staining, these areas revealed intra-nuclear vacuolization. The production of leukoplakic changes correlated with increase in the antibody level against HSV-2.
