The purpose of this study was to present the clinicopathological features of a series of patients with human papillomavirus (HPV)-associated head and neck second primary tumors.
Patients with HPV-associated head and neck second primary tumors from 3 centers were identified. HPV infection was evaluated using p16 by immunohistochemistry (IHC), high-risk HPV DNA by in situ hybridization (ISH), and HPV genotyping by DNA polymerase chain reaction (PCR) enzyme immunoassay (EIA).
Eleven patients were identified: 5 with synchronous and 6 with metachronous HPV-positive second primary tumors, the latter demonstrating a mean time interval of 5 years. There were 13 second primary tumors: 11 oropharyngeal, 1 nasopharyngeal, and 1 floor of the mouth. Nine of 10 genotyped patients harbored HPV-16, and 1 patient had HPV-33 in 3 synchronous tumors.
HPV-associated second primary tumors may present as synchronous and/or metachronous lesions and can arise outside the oropharynx after prolonged intervals. Further work is necessary to identify patients at risk and to elucidate the mechanisms of HPV-associated head and neck second primary tumors.
本研究的目的是呈现一系列人乳头瘤病毒(HPV)相关头颈部第二原发肿瘤患者的临床病理特征。
确定来自3个中心的HPV相关头颈部第二原发肿瘤患者。采用免疫组织化学(IHC)检测p16评估HPV感染,采用原位杂交(ISH)检测高危HPV DNA,采用DNA聚合酶链反应(PCR)酶免疫测定(EIA)进行HPV基因分型。
共确定11例患者:5例为同步性HPV阳性第二原发肿瘤,6例为异时性HPV阳性第二原发肿瘤,后者的平均时间间隔为5年。共有13个第二原发肿瘤:11个口咽肿瘤、1个鼻咽肿瘤和1个口腔底部肿瘤。10例进行基因分型的患者中有9例携带HPV-16,1例患者在3个同步肿瘤中携带HPV-33。
HPV相关第二原发肿瘤可能表现为同步性和/或异时性病变,且在较长时间间隔后可发生于口咽以外部位。有必要进一步开展工作以确定高危患者,并阐明HPV相关头颈部第二原发肿瘤的发病机制。
