Background: The introduction of ART had a momentous impact on women living with Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) with cervical cancer positive. The incidence of AIDS-defining cancers has decreased, but the risk is still higher than general population. Women living with (HIV) have a high prevalence of human papilloma virus (HPV) infection and correlated disease, including cervical cancer. HIV-related risk factors, such as immunodeficiency and chronic persistence of infection play an important role in its pathogenesis. HPV vaccine, screening and early antiretroviral therapies, are recommended to reduce the risk of developing cervical cancer among the WLH. Methodology: In this review, we considered the studies published about cervical cancer in women living with HIV between 2019 to 2022 in Kenya. We comprised only recent articles written in English, identifying 50 records. We excluded 10 articles after reading title and abstract. At the end of the assessment we included in our review the 40 full-text articles. Results: The normal history of HIV infection has been intensely modified by the introduction of HAART, but HIV-infected women still have a higher risk of developing HPV-related diseases, including cervical cancer. Conclusion: Further studies are needed to obtain data about interactions between HAART and HPV-related lesions. Lastly, psychological support for cervical cancer survivors and management of late effects are needed.
