Prevalence and physical status of human papillomavirus in squamous cell carcinomas of the head and neck.

Fresh-frozen biopsies were obtained from 61 patients at diagnosis of squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck (HNSCC) for study of the prevalence and physical status of human papillomavirus (HPV) DNA. The frequency of HPV DNA and genotypes were determined by SPF10 PCR screening with a general probe hybridization and INNO-LiPA HPV genotyping assay. In addition, a single-phase PCR with primers FAP 59/64 and a nested PCR with primers CP 65/70 and CP 66/69 served to detect particularly cutaneous HPV types.
