Recent studies have suggested that esophageal HPV infection could be a risk factor for esophageal squatnous-cell carcinoma. The aims of our study were to assess the presence of HPV esophageal infection among French patients with esophageal squamous-cell carcinoma and to compare the prevalence of thi
## 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
## Abstract Certain regions of China have high rates of esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC). Previous studies of human papillomavirus (HPV), a proposed causal factor, have produced highly variable results. We attempted to evaluate HPV and ESCC more definitively using extreme care to prevent D
Esophageal papilloma, an infrequent benign tumor, and esophageal squamous-cell carcinoma sometimes appear to be associated with human papillomavirus (HPV) infection, HPV being implicated in anogenital carcinogenesis. Our aim was to assess whether there is any epidemiological difference in terms of r
## BACKGROUND. Human papillomaviruses (HPVs) commonly cause proliferative lesions of squamous epithelia, and infection with certain HPV types carries a high risk of malignant transformation, especially in the uterine cervix but also at other sites, including the esophagus. We used molecular techniq
