human papilloma virus causes benign and malignant abnormalities in different part of the body. the link between high risk types of hpv and some anogenital and aerodigestive tract cancer is well established. oral hpv infection plays a role in developing oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma. we studied the prevalence of oral hpv in healthy individuals and its relative risk factors.saliva samples...

purpose: to explore any association between human papilloma virus (hpv) infection and ocular surface squamous neoplasia. methods: forty pathological specimens including 20 cases of conjunctival intra-epithelial neoplasia grade i (cin i) and 20 cases of cin iii and invasive squamous cell carcinoma (scc) together with 20 pterygium samples (controls) were analyzed by polymerase chain reaction (pcr...

results in 12 patients (37%), human papilloma virus was detected by pcr method. in addition, there was no difference in distribution of patients with respect to affliction with human papilloma virus between high-risk and low-risk groups. there was no relationship between clinical manifestation and type of papilloma virus. materials and methods this cross-sectional study was conducted on 32 pati...

introduction: the human papilloma virus (hpv) can play a role in the development of head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (scc). our aim was to assess the prevalence of hpv dna in scc of the larynx. the impact of hpv infection on patient survival was also evaluated.  materials and methods: this case-control study was performed in 44 patients with scc of the larynx (case group), while the contro...

objective: in recent years, humman papilomaviruses (hpv) infection is the most common type of sexual trasmitted diseases (std) in majority of countries. it's a significant source of morbidity and mortality worldwide. in this study, we aimed to compare the history of reproductive disease between two groups of iranian women with and without hpv infection through colposcopy precedure. materials an...
