## BACKGROUND. Human papillomavirus (HPV) DNA has been identified in esophageal carcinomas. However, the incidence of HPV varies significantly in different geographic locations. In the current study, neoplasms from two separate geographic regions were analyzed for the presence of HPV DNA. ## METHO
Substantial clinical, epidemiologic, and experimental evidence has reinforced the role of high risk human papillomavirus (HPV) types in the development of cervical carcinoma. The authors investigated HPV in the uterine cervix squamous cell carcinomas and adenocarcinomas of Finnish patients. ## METH
A series of 156 formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded biopsies from 40 patients with surgically-treated oral squamous cell carcinomas was analysed for the presence of human papillomavirus (HPV) infection by histopathological evaluation, in situ DNA hybridization and polymerase chain reaction (PCR). Epit
In 45 patients who underwent an esophagus resection due to a squamous cell carcinoma, in addition to the TNM classification and usual morphologic criteria, the paraffin-embedded material underwent deparaffinization, was rehydrated, and was mechanically and enzymatically processed into a single-cell
