Oro- and Nasopharyngeal Papillomas with Squamous and Respiratory Features: A Case Series of Schneiderian-Like Papillomas of the Pharynx. Head Neck Pathol 2021; 16:486-493. [PMID: 34694538 PMCID: PMC9187839 DOI: 10.1007/s12105-021-01389-3] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/10/2021] [Accepted: 10/18/2021] [Indexed: 10/20/2022]
Abstract
There is limited literature detailing the histology of pharyngeal papillomas. Herein, we report our experience with papillomas occurring in the oro-and nasopharynx that have both squamous and respiratory features akin to the sinonasal Schneiderian papilloma. We retrospectively reviewed pharyngeal papillomas that were composed of both squamous and respiratory epithelium received at our institution between 2010 and 2020. Cases of sinonasal papillomas directly extending into the pharynx were excluded. Immunohistochemistry for p16 as well as RNA in situ hybridization to evaluate for 6 low-risk and 18 high-risk HPV genotypes were performed on all cases. Thirteen cases were included. Mean age was 61 with 12 males and 1 female. While often incidentally found, presenting symptoms included globus sensation, hemoptysis, and hoarseness of voice. Histologically, all tumors consisted of squamous and respiratory epithelium with neutrophilic infiltrates arranged in an exophytic/papillary architecture that was reminiscent of the exophytic type of Schneiderian papilloma. Immunohistochemistry for p16 was negative in all papillomas. 85% were positive for low-risk human papillomavirus (HPV) subtypes and all were negative for high-risk HPV subtypes. A well-differentiated, invasive squamous cell carcinoma was associated with two of the cases. Papillomas with squamous and respiratory features similar to the sinonasal exophytic Schneiderian papilloma can arise in the oro- and nasopharynx and like their sinonasal counterparts show an association with HPV. While many in this series were benign, they can be harbingers for invasive squamous cell carcinoma.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Human papillomavirus (HPV) is an established prognostic marker in oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma. Currently, the role of HPV in sinonasal carcinoma is being explored. OBJECTIVES This systematic review addresses the role of HPV in sinonasal cancer, establishing the occurrence of HPV-positive cancers and the influence of HPV-positivity on prognosis in sinonasal cancer as well as the utility of the putative surrogate marker of HPV (p16) in sinonasal cancer. MATERIAL AND METHODS Studies were identified with searches of Medline via PubMed and Embase via OVID (4 May 2020). Articles on original research concerning sinonasal cancer and HPV in humans written in English were included. Case reports with less than five cases were excluded. RESULTS Initially, 545 articles were identified; 190 duplicate articles were removed leaving 355 articles for title/abstract screening. Title/abstract screening excluded 243 articles, leaving 112 studies assessed for eligibility. After full-text screening, 57 studies were included. All articles investigated the significance of HPV in sinonasal carcinomas. HPV was reported in approximately 30% of sinonasal squamous cell carcinoma (SNSCC), where it was associated with a better prognosis. In sinonasal cancer, p16 is associated with diagnostic pitfalls and a putative utility of p16 in SNSCC has yet to be established. HPV was not frequently reported in other types of sinonasal carcinomas, besides the recently described subtype, HPV-dependent Multiphenotypic Sinonasal Carcinoma. In other types of sinonasal carcinoma, HPV is not frequently found. CONCLUSION Approximately 30% of SNSCC are HPV-positive. HPV-positivity in SNSCC is associated with improved survival. HPV occurs only rarely in other sinonasal cancers. There is currently not sufficient evidence for p16 as a surrogate marker of HPV in SNSCC.

Abstract
Glandular neoplasms of the temporal-mastoid region and endolymphatic sac (ELS) are rare, and it is quite challenging to differentiate between an adenoma and an adenocarcinoma. ELS tumors (ELST) usually present with papillary, follicular, or solid patterns and can be further distinguished histologically and through immunohistochemistry. The microscopic features and clinical course of this neoplasm have been comprehensively explained by Heffner, who considered it "low-grade adenocarcinoma of likely ELS origin." The papillary form more commonly affects females, and it is a more aggressive form of ELST that is destructive and exhibits extensive local spread. The tumor usually has a close association with von Hippel-Lindau (VHL) disease, but 11%-30% of the ELST cases develop in individuals without a VHL mutation. ELSTs manifest with headaches, hearing loss, ear discharge, and cranial nerve palsies. Currently, the only available curative therapeutic intervention consists of wide local excision and long-term follow-up. Because of the sensitive location of this tumor, the adjuvant radiotherapy options are still questionable. In this case report, the author presents a 74-year-old woman with a past medical history of Schneiderian papilloma and was diagnosed with papillary mucinous adenocarcinoma of the ELS not associated with VHL disease.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The role of human papillomavirus (HPV) in sinonasal squamous cell carcinoma (SNSCC) is not well understood. METHODS The National Cancer Database was queried for cases of SNSCC with known HPV status. Demographics, socioeconomic variables, TNM stage, histology, grade, treatment modalities, and overall survival (OS) through 5 years were compared between HPV-positive and HPV-negative tumors. Cox proportional hazard regression analyses were performed. RESULTS Seven hundred seventy (770) cases were identified; 526 were HPV-negative (68.3%) and 244 (31.7%) were HPV-positive. Patients with HPV-positive tumors were younger (58.0 vs 63.7 years, p < 0.0001). Nasal cavity (49.4%) tumors were more likely to be HPV-positive (p < 0.05) than maxillary (18.8%), ethmoid (18.8%), and frontal (18.2%) sinus tumors. Large cell nonkeratinizing (42.4%), papillary (42.1%), and basaloid (56.5%) tumors were more likely than keratinizing (25.2%) tumors to be HPV-positive (p < 0.05). Well-differentiated (grade I) tumors (9.0%) were less likely than higher grade tumors to be HPV-positive (p < 0.05). Gender, race, facility type, insurance type, median income, education level, Charlson-Deyo comorbidity score, overall stage, T stage, N stage, M stage, tumor size, treatment modality, surgical approach, and surgical margins did not vary by HPV status (p ≥ 0.05). HPV-positive tumors had higher OS than HPV-negative tumors (p < 0.0001). At 5 years, OS was 68.1% and 51.5% for HPV-positive and HPV-negative tumors, respectively. On multivariate analyses, HPV positivity remained a favorable prognostic factor (hazard ratio, 0.49; 95% confidence interval, 0.34-0.70). CONCLUSION HPV positivity is more common in nasal cavity SCC and nonkeratinizing SNSCC. It is also a favorable prognostic factor in SNSCC. Future studies on SNSCC should take HPV positivity into consideration.

Abstract
The interesting history of papillomavirus (PV) research has been reviewed before. The history of human papillomavirus (HPV) in head and neck region starts in 1901 when the contagious transmission of warty lesions into the mouth via oral sex was described, although the confirmation of their viral etiology had to wait until 1907. Ullman was the first to associate the human wart virus with laryngeal warts. Parsons and Kidd described the natural history of oral PV infections in rabbits already in 1942, but these findings were corroborated in humans only recently. Koilocytotic atypia described by Koss and Durfee in 1956 was recognized as a sign of HPV infection in cervical precancer lesions only in 1976-1977 (Meisels and Fortin; Purola and Savia). This prompted systematic surveys of head and neck lesions for the detection of koilocytosis since the late 1970s, and the authors of this communication were the first to propose the HPV involvement in a subgroup of head and neck cancers. Brandsma and Abramson demonstrated HPV16 DNA in tonsillar SCCs in 1989. Since the early 2000s, HPV research of head and neck squamous cell carcinomas (HNSCC) has made impressive progress, confirming that the specific anatomic site plays a key role in determining the susceptibility to HPV infection. The most likely cancer sites associated with HPV are the base of the tongue and palatine tonsils, followed by oral cavity, larynx, and sinonasal mucosa. There is substantial geographic variation in HPV association with HNSCC. Patients with HPV-associated HNSCC are younger, and survival is better than in the absence of HPV.

Abstract
The nasal cavity and paranasal sinuses occupy the top of the upper respiratory tract and form pneumatic spaces connected with the atmosphere. They are located immediately beneath the base of the cranium, where crucial vital structures are harbored. From this region, very much exposed to airborne agents, arise some of the more complex and rare benign and malignant lesions seen in humans, whose difficulties in interpretation make this remarkable territory one of the most challenging in the practice of surgical pathology. Contents of this chapter cover inflammations and infections, polyps and pseudotumors, fungal and midfacial destructive granulomatous lesions, as well as benign, borderline, and malignant neoplasms. Among the neoplasms, emphasis is made on those entities characteristic or even unique for the sinonasal region, such as Schneiderian papillomas, glomangiopericytoma, intestinal- and non-intestinal-type adenocarcinomas, olfactory neuroblastoma, nasal-type NK-/T-cell lymphoma, and teratocarcinosarcoma. Moreover, recently recognized entities involving this territory, i.e., HPV-related non-keratinizing carcinoma, NUT carcinoma, and SMARCB1-deficient basaloid carcinoma, are also discussed in the light of their specific molecular findings. Furthermore, the text is accompanied by numerous classical and recent references, several tables, and 100 illustrations.

Abstract
Inverted sinonasal papilloma (ISP) is a locally aggressive neoplasm associated with sinonasal squamous cell carcinoma (SNSCC) in 10% to 25% of cases. To date, no recurrent mutations have been identified in ISP or SNSCC. Using targeted next-generation sequencing and Sanger sequencing, we identified activating EGFR mutations in 88% of ISP and 77% of ISP-associated SNSCC. Identical EGFR genotypes were found in matched pairs of ISP and associated SNSCC, providing the first genetic evidence of a biologic link between these tumors. EGFR mutations were not identified in exophytic or oncocytic papillomas or non-ISP-associated SNSCC, suggesting that the ISP/SNSCC spectrum is biologically distinct among sinonasal squamous tumors. Patients with ISP harboring EGFR mutations also exhibited an increased progression-free survival compared with those with wild-type EGFR. Finally, treatment of ISP-associated carcinoma cells with irreversible EGFR inhibitors resulted in inactivation of EGFR signaling and growth inhibition. These findings implicate a prominent role for activating EGFR mutations in the pathogenesis of ISP and associated SNSCC and rationalize consideration of irreversible EGFR inhibitors in the therapy of these tumors.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Inverted papillomas are a benign sinonasal tumor with a propensity for recurrence and malignant transformation. Although many investigations have been made into the nature of this disease, its etiology and causes for malignant transformation have yet to be fully elucidated. It is the authors' objective to present a review on management of the disease and evaluate the present relationship between human papilloma virus (HPV) and inverted papilloma. RECENT FINDINGS A causal relationship between HPV and the pathogenesis and progression of inverted papilloma has been posited since the 1980s. Although widely varied HPV detection rates have been reported, recent studies have noted a substantial increase in both recurrence and malignant transformation in HPV-infected inverted papillomas. However, exact cellular mechanisms by which infection leads to subsequent recurrence and development of carcinoma have yet to be elucidated. SUMMARY Evidence exists suggesting that HPV infection plays a role in the progression of inverted papilloma and confers an increased risk for recurrence and malignant transformation. PCR is the preferred detection method, and fresh or frozen specimens are the ideal source of tissue for evaluation. Although multiple studies have detected an association between HPV and inverted papilloma (both recurrent and malignant transformation), further studies are necessary to elucidate the underlying molecular pathways before an association can be changed to causation.

Abstract
Skull base inverted papilloma (IP) is an unusual entity for many neurosurgeons. IP is renowned for its high rate of recurrence, its ability to cause local destruction, and its association with malignancy. This paper is a comprehensive review of the reports, studies, and reviews published in the current biomedical literature from 1947 to September 2010 and synthesize this information to focus on its potential invasion to the base of the skull and possible intradural extension. The objective is to familiarize the clinician with the different aspects of this unusual disease. The role of modern diagnostic tools in medical imaging in order to assess clearly the limits of the tumors and to enhance the efficiency and the safety in the choice of a surgical approach is pointed out. The treatment guidelines for IP have undergone a complex evolution that continues today. Radical excision of the tumour is technically difficult and often incomplete. Successful management of IP requires resection of the affected mucosa which could be achieved with open surgery, endoscopic, or combined approach. Radio and chemotherapy were used for certain indications. More optimally research would be a multicenter randomized trials with large size cohorts.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES/HYPOTHESIS To perform a systematic review and formal meta-analysis of the literature reporting on HPV detection in sinonasal papillomas. Since first reported in 1983, the etiological role for human papillomavirus (HPV) in sinonasal papillomas has been subject to increasing interest. STUDY DESIGN A systematic review, with meta-analysis and formal meta-regression. METHODS Literature was searched through April 2012. The effect size was calculated as event rates (95% confidence interval [CI]), with homogeneity testing using Cochran's Q and I(2) statistics. Meta-regression was used to test the impact of study-level covariates (HPV detection method, geographic origin, papilloma type) on effect size, and potential publication bias was estimated using funnel plot symmetry. RESULTS Seventy-six studies were eligible covering 1,956 sinonasal papillomas from different geographic regions. Altogether, 760 (38.8%) cases tested HPV-positive; effect size 0.421 (95% CI 0.359-0.485, random effects model). The summary HPV prevalence was highest (65.3%) in exophytic papillomas (EP), followed by inverted papillomas (37.8%) and cylindrical cell papillomas (22.5%). In meta-analysis stratified by 1) HPV detection technique, 2) geographic study origin, and 3) papilloma type, the between-study heterogeneity was significant only for the papilloma types (P = .001). In meta-regression, HPV detection method (P = .102), geographic origin (P = .149), or histological type (P = .240) were not significant study-level covariates. Some evidence for publication bias was found only for studies on EP. In sensitivity analysis, all meta-analytic results were robust to all one-by-one study removals. CONCLUSIONS Variability in HPV detection rates in sinonasal papillomas is explained by their histological types (not by HPV detection method or geographic origin of study), but none of the three were significant study-level covariates in formal meta-regression.

Abstract
The sinonasal tract (SNT) includes the nasal cavity and paranasal sinuses (maxillary, ethmoid, frontal, and sphenoid) and may give rise to a variety of nonneoplastic and neoplastic proliferations, including benign and malignant neoplasms. The benign neoplasms of the SNT include epithelial neoplasms of surface epithelial origin, minor salivary gland origin, and mesenchymal origin. The spectrum of malignant neoplasms of the SNT includes epithelial malignancies, sinonasal undifferentiated carcinoma, malignant salivary gland neoplasms, neuroectodermal neoplasms, neuroendocrine neoplasms, melanocytic neoplasm, and sarcomas. This article concentrates on some of the more common types of benign and malignant neoplasms.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The purpose of this study of human papillomavirus (HPV), Epstein-Barr virus (EBV), p21, and p53 in sinonasal inverted papilloma (IP) was to help elucidate its pathogenesis. METHODS Seventy-three IPs, 48 nasal polyps, and 85 hypertrophied turbinates were subjected to HPV polymerase chain reaction (PCR) study. Seventy-three IPs, 30 nasal polyps, and 32 hypertrophied turbinates were subjected to EBV in situ hybridization (ISH), p21, and p53 immunohistochemical (IHC) studies. RESULTS HPV was positive in 3 of 73 IPs (4.1%). All specimens were EBV negative. In all, 99% of IPs showed strong and diffuse p21 nuclear reactivity. Most nasal polyps and hypertrophied turbinates showed weak to moderate immunoreactivity of the basal and parabasal cells. Only focal p53 immunoreactivity of the basal and parabasal cells was found in 19% of IPs and 40% of nasal polyps. CONCLUSIONS HPV prevalence of our IP is low. EBV is not present in IP. High p21 and low p53 expression in IP suggests a non-p53-dependent regulation pathway.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Cylindrical cell papillomas are rare tumours which usually arise in the sinonasal region. CASE REPORT We report a case of a nasopharyngeal cylindrical cell papilloma in a 56-year-old man who presented with a four-month history of right-sided hearing loss, otalgia, vertigo and tinnitus. Investigation revealed a soft, nodular lesion obstructing the pharyngeal opening of the right eustachian tube; this was treated by wide endoscopic excision. CONCLUSION Cylindrical cell papilloma is a possible cause of eustachian tube obstruction in adults. Effective treatment of these lesions usually requires wide endoscopic excision, in order not to miss coexistent carcinoma.

Abstract
This study investigated the role of human papillomavirus (HPV) in Schneiderian papillomas (SPs) to determine whether HPV is associated with the pathogenesis of particular histologic subtypes and whether p16(INK4a) can be used as a surrogate marker for HPV detection. Twenty-seven papilloma specimens (19 inverted [IPs], 6 exophytic [EPs], 1 oncocytic [OP] and 1 mixed) were collected from 23 patients. Purified SP DNA extracts were tested for HPV by PCR using GP5 +/GP6 + primers; HPV genotyping was performed by dot blot hybridization. PCR positive specimens were screened for HPV by biotinyl-tyramide-based chromogenic in situ hybridization (CISH). Immunohistochemsistry (IHC) for the HPV L1 capsid protein and for p16(INK4a) was performed on all specimens. HPV was detected by PCR in 16/27 (59.3%) SPs; 9/19 (47.4%) IPs; 6/6 (100%) EPs [p = 0.051], and 1/1 (100%) mixed SP. HPV was not detected in the single OP. High risk genotypes were detected in 4/9 IPs (44.4%) and 0/6 EPs (0%) [p = 0.10]. Seven of 16 PCR positive SPs were also CISH positive for HPV: 5/6 EPs (83.3%) and 1/9 IP (11.1%) [p = 0.01]. IHC for the L1 capsid protein was positive in 2 SPs (1 EP and 1 mixed). p16(INK4a) staining was seen in 14/16 (87.5%) PCR positive SPs and in 10/11 (90.9%) PCR negative SPs (p = 1.00). In summary, this study demonstrates a strong association between HPV and EPs, however, its role in IPs remains less well-defined. Further, p16(INK4a) is not a useful surrogate marker for HPV detection across the various SPs.

Abstract
Die Gesichtsmitte (der Bezirk zwischen Oberlippe und Stirn) entwickelt sich zwischen der 4. und 8. Schwangerschaftswoche. [ 220] Der Stirnfortsatz bildet sich währen der 4. postovulatorischen Woche, aus ihm gehen die oberen und mittleren Anteile des Gesichts hervor. Die Oberkiefer- und Nasenwülste entwickeln sich unterhalb des Stirnfortsatzes. Am Ende der 4. Woche bilden zwei oberflächliche Verdickungen der Nasenwülste die Riechplakoden, die ektodermaler Herkunft sind und aus denen der Epithelbelag der Nasenhöhle und Nasennebenhöhlen hervorgeht. Die Plakoden stülpen sich ein und bilden die Riechgruben, aus denen die vorderen Choanen (Nasenlöcher) und weniger oberflächlich die primitiven hinteren Choanen entstehen. Die medialen Nasen- und Stirnfortsätze bilden das Nasenseptum, die Stirnknochen, Nasenknochen, die Siebbeinzellen- Komplexe und die oberen Schneidezähne. Die lateralen Nasen- und Oberkieferfortsätze vereinigen sich zur Bildung des Philtrum und der Columella. Das knorpelige Nasenskelet bildet sich während der 7. und 8. postovulatorischen Woche tief unterhalb der Nasen- und Stirnbeinknochen aus dem Chondrocranium. Die Nasennebenhöhlen entwickeln sich in der 6. Fetalwoche aus den lateralen Nasenwänden, und ihr Wachstum setzt sich nach der Geburt während des gesamten Kindes- und Jugendalters fort.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Evidence of an etiological role for human papillomavirus (HPV) in Schneiderian inverted papillomas IP arose in the late 1980's; yet almost three decades later, the association between HPV and IP has yet to be universally accepted. This is probably due to the disparate HPV detection rates in IP reported in the literature. We analyzed the weight of published data in order to address the following questions: why do the HPV detection rates in IP vary so greatly? What is the relationship between low-risk (LR) and high-risk (HR) HPV types and HPV detection rates in IP? Is there a relationship between the presence and type of HPV in IP and recurrence and malignant progression? MATERIALS AND METHODS A search using the Pubmed search engine was performed to identify studies published in English from 01/87 through 12/06 using the MeSH terms ''HPV'' and ''Inverted", "Exophytic", "Oncocytic Schneiderian" or "Fungiform papilloma''. Data was abstracted from publications including histology, HPV target, HPV type, method of detection, etc. HPV results were stratified by histology and other variables. Tests for heterogeneity (between-study variability) were conducted, and weighted prevalence (WP) estimates and 95% confidence intervals (CI) were calculated using a random-effects inverse-variance model stratified on study. The association between HPV IP recurrence was estimated by random-effects inverse-variance weighted odds ratio (OR). RESULTS Weighted estimates revealed similar detection rates across detection methods, 26.8% (95%CI 16.4-37.2%) by ISH, 25.2% (95%CI 14.7-35.6%) by consensus PCR, and 23.6% (95%CI 12.2-35.0%) by type-specific PCR. A preponderance of HPV 6/11 is found in IP as compared to HPV 16/18; the overall unadjusted ratio of LR to high-risk HR HPV types is 2.8:1 The HPV detection rates significantly increase (Wald t-test P < 0.02) in IPs with high-grade dysplasia (WP 55.8%, 95%CI 30.5-81.0%) and carcinoma (WP 55.1%, 95%CI 37.0-73.2%) as compared to IPs with no dysplasia or mild dysplasia (WP 22.3%, 95%CI 15.9-28.6%). Furthermore, the preponderance of LR HPV in benign IP (ratio LR/HR = 4.8:1) shifts in dysplastic and malignant IP. The LR/HR ratio is 1.1:1 for IPs with high-grade dysplasias, this ratio is inverted to favor HR HPV (1:2.4) for malignant IP. Recurrences developed in 44 of 236 patients; HPV was detected in 27 of 44 IPs (WP 57.9%, 95%CI 31.6-84.2%) that developed recurrences and in 24 of 192 IPs (WP 9.7%, 95%CI 4.4-15.0%) that did not develop recurrence. The presence of HPV was significantly associated with the likelihood of developing recurrence (weighted OR of 10.2, 95%CI 3.2-32.8). CONCLUSIONS We hypothesize that LR HPV may induce IP formation, and then are lost as infected cells are shed, as a "hit and run" phenomenon. HPV detection rates increase in dysplastic IP and SCC-ex-IP with increasing ratio of HR to LR HPV types, compared to nondysplastic IP. We believe that one explanation for the variation in HPV detection rates between different studies may be the actual histologic composition of the cohort. That is, if one series contains a higher frequency of dysplastic and malignant IP, it may have a higher detection rate than another series which contains only nondysplastic IP. We hypothesize that the higher rates of HPV detection in dysplastic and malignant IP may be related to HPV integration. The implication of this is that HPV sub-type testing may identify patients at risk for recurrence, or progression to dysplasia and malignancy, and thus may impact surveillance protocols.

Abstract
This review updates the evidence that the human papillomavirus (HPV) is involved in the development of benign and malignant sinonasal lesions. Since the early 1980s, when evidence was provided on the possible involvement of HPV in the aetiology of both benign respiratory papillomas and squamous cell carcinomas, a substantial number of studies have explored this issue. To date, 33.3% of sinonasal papillomas and 21.7% of sinonasal carcinomas analysed have been shown to be positive for HPV. Many elements of the data parallel the observations made in HPV lesions at other mucosal sites, such as malignant transformation and frequent recurrence after radical treatment; the fact that low risk HPV types 6 and 11 are usually confined to benign lesions, whereas the reverse is true for the oncogenic HPV types 16 and 18; and the presence of squamo-columnar junctions and squamous cell metaplasia in the sinonasal system. The discrepancies reported by several studies might result in part from technical reasons, but it is also possible that sinonasal lesions have a heterogeneous aetiology (HPV related and non-related) and/or that some novel (yet unidentified) HPV types exist in these lesions, which are detected by some studies but not by others.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Several studies have indicated an etiologic role for viruses in the development of sinonasal inverted papillomata (IP). A recent report demonstrates a strong relationship (65%) between Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) and these lesions using polymerase chain reaction (PCR) analysis. METHODS The present study analyzes a series of paraffin-embedded tissues, comprising 25 surgically resected IPs and four fungiform papillomata (FP) for the presence of EBV using a sensitive in situ hybridization (ISH) assay and PCR. RESULTS None of the specimens examined showed evidence of EBV infection by ISH, and only two papillomata (one sinonasal IP and one FP) gave positive reactions for EBV using PCR. CONCLUSIONS These data challenge the previous report and suggest that EBV is not a significant etiopathologic factor to be considered in the development of sinonasal IP.

Abstract
Human papillomaviruses (HPVs) cause benign tumors in the respiratory tract. Mounting evidence suggests that they also play a role in the etiology of a subset of head and neck cancers. Carcinomas in patients with a history of recurrent respiratory papillomatosis clearly are caused by persisting HPV interacting with one of more carcinogenic agents. Verrucous carcinomas of the oral cavity, tonsillar and tongue carcinomas are strongly linked with HPVs, based on molecular epidemiologic data. Tonsillar cancer have been shown to express HPV RNA, presumed necessary to induce and maintain a carcinoma, supporting a viral etiology. This paper reviews the molecular and cellular basis for considering HPVs as causative agents of cancer, and reviews the literature that considers the possible role of HPVs in head and neck cancer.

Abstract
Recent evidence suggests that human papillomavirus may play a role in the pathogenesis of inverted papilloma, a benign but locally aggressive neoplasm with a high recurrence rate and an association with squamous cell carcinoma. Histologic features of inverted papilloma have not been useful in discriminating lesions at high risk for malignant transformation. We studied archival pathology specimens from 39 patients with inverted papilloma treated at the University of Michigan between 1980 and 1994 using polymerase chain reaction techniques and human papillomavirus L1 and E6 consensus primers. Previously we reported that 63% of these specimens tested positive for human papillomavirus sequences and that presence of human papillomavirus predicted recurrence of inverted papilloma. We used type-specific primer pairs and polymerase chain reaction techniques as well as hybridization with type-specific oligonucleotide probes to determine human papillomavirus type. A significant correlation was observed between the severity of the lesion (dysplasia or carcinoma) and high risk human papillomavirus type (p < 0.01). All 12 benign inverted papilloma specimens that contained human papillomavirus tested positive for human papillomavirus 6 or 11. Of seven inverted papilloma specimens that exhibited dysplasia, five were human papillomavirus positive, three contained human papillomavirus 6, one contained human papillomavirus 11, and one contained human papillomavirus 18. In each of the three specimens that contained inverted papilloma in association with squamous cell carcinoma, the inverted papilloma portion of the specimen tested positive for a single human papillomavirus type: human papillomavirus 6, 11, or 16.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Histologic features of inverted papilloma have not been useful in discriminating lesions at high risk for recurrence. We studied archival pathology specimens from 32 patients with inverted papilloma treated at the University of Michigan between 1980 and 1994 with polymerase chain reaction techniques and human papillomavirus E6 and L1 consensus primers. Twenty (63%) specimens tested positive for human papillomavirus. The clinical status of the remaining 25 patients was reviewed after seven patients with recent diagnosis or who were lost to follow-up were excluded. A significant association was identified between the presence of human papillomavirus DNA in inverted papilloma and recurrence after surgical excision. Thirteen of 15 patients whose tumors tested positive for HPV recurred, whereas none of the 10 patients whose tumors were human papillomavirus negative recurred ( p < 0.00002). This strongly suggests that the presence of human papillomavirus predicts recurrence of inverted papilloma.

Abstract
To determine the role of human papillomavirus (HPV) in the etiology of sinonasal papillomas, 57 inverted papillomas including 5 cases associated with carcinomas, 16 exophytic papillomas, and 5 cases of columnar cell papillomas were examined for the presence of HPV DNA by in situ hybridization and polymerase chain reaction (PCR). The genetic studies were performed on the formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded material. In only 6% of the 52 benign inverted papillomas was HPV DNA identified, whereas 69% of the exophytic papillomas were infected by HPV DNA. In none of the 5 cases with columnar cell papillomas could HPV be demonstrated. HPV 6/11 was identified in all of these HPV-positive cases. In the carcinoma area, HPV was detected in 2 (1 HPV 6/11 and 1 HPV 18) of the 5 inverted papillomas associated with carcinomas. The findings confirm the presence of HPV DNA in sinonasal papillomas. The results also indicate that HPV 6/11 may be involved in the pathogenesis of, solely, exophytic papillomas. We found that in situ hybridization and PCR seem equally sensitive in detecting HPV in sinonasal papillomas.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The observed seasonal and geographic variations in the incidence of immunoproliferative small intestinal disease (IPSID) suggest that environmental factors contribute to its pathogenesis. One such environmental factor, the Epstein-Barr virus (EBV), has been associated with other B-cell lymphoproliferative disorders. METHODS IPSID tissues obtained at the time of initial diagnosis were retrieved from the American University of Beirut pathology archives (1972-1983) and examined for EBV genetic information by colorimetric in situ hybridization (ISH) and polymerase chain reaction (PCR). Eight patients were identified, four of whom also had serologic and immunohistochemical evidence of alpha-heavy chain disease. Thirteen tissue samples from these eight patients were available for study: eight were intestinal and five were nodal. Non-Hodgkin's B-cell lymphoma cases (nine) were randomly selected from the same archive to serve as a control for EBV in that geographic location. The ISH method used a probe to the "W" repetitive region of EBV, with the human placental DNA probe as a control for sample preparation. The PCR method amplified a 110 base pair region in the long internal direct repeat with amplification of beta-actin as control for DNA preservation. Both assays used formalin fixed paraffin embedded Raji cells as a positive control. RESULTS Neither ISH nor PCR demonstrated EBV in any of the eight patients with IPSID: The results for one of seven control blocks with adequate DNA preservation were positive when PCR was used but were negative when ISH was used. CONCLUSIONS These findings do not support a role for EBV in the induction of B-cell proliferation in IPSID:

Abstract
The frequency of human papillomavirus (HPV) in sinonasal papillomas seems to vary considerably. The highest frequencies have been reported by investigators using in situ DNA or RNA hybridization. Few studies have used polymerase chain reaction, and in these reports the frequency of HPV detection is rather low. We have investigated the presence of HPV in sinonasal papillomas using the polymerase chain reaction with a set of degenerated consensus primers, which amplify the vast majority of the known HPV types. Human papillomavirus was found in three of 14 papillomas. By in situ hybridization the same three papillomas were positive for HPV type 6/11.

Abstract
A method was developed for fast and efficient isolation of RNA from paraffin-embedded tissue sections for subsequent PCR analysis. This method is based on the binding of RNA to acid-treated glass beads in the presence of a high molarity of guanidinium salt. It can be completed within an hour, and obviates the need for dewaxing and phenol/chloroform extractions. The effect of various fixatives and fixation times was tested and the amplification of actin mRNA fragments ranging in length from 82 to 507 bp was used to demonstrate the presence of RNA in the extracts. The method was compared to existing extraction techniques by studying the quality of the templates for reverse-transcriptase polymerase chain reaction amplification (RT-PCR), using virus-infected and mock-infected paraffin-embedded cell pellets as a model. PCR amplification of cellular and viral RNA was successful for RNA isolated by use of all extraction techniques, although the glass bead method was preferred for its simplicity and rapidity. Specimens fixed with formalin were found to be suitable for PCR, but the best results were obtained with acetone-fixed paraffin-embedded material. Dewaxing of tissue sections had no effect on the yield and quality of RNA extractions, and further purification of the extracts using gel filtration did not improve the results. After the protocols were optimized, rotavirus-infected cell pellets were used to demonstrate that extraction and amplification of dsRNA was possible. The information obtained from the studies with the model system was used for extraction of toroviral and rotaviral RNA from archival intestinal material. These data indicate that paraffin-embedded archival tissue can be used for RT-PCR analysis, adding an important technique to diagnostic pathology and retrospective studies.
