Abstract
In-situ hybridization provides a convenient and reliable method to detect human papillomavirus (HPV) infection in formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded tissue. Cases of conjunctival papillomas, conjunctival intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN), conjunctival carcinoma in situ (cCIS), and invasive squamous cell carcinoma (SCC), in which low-risk (LR) and/or high-risk (HR) HPV types were evaluated by RNA or DNA in-situ hybridization, were retrospectively identified. LR HPV types were frequently detected in conjunctival papillomas (25/30, 83%), including 17/18 (94%) with RNA probes, compared to 8/12 (75%) with DNA probes. None of the CIN/cCIS or SCC cases were positive for LR HPV by either method. HR HPV was detected by RNA in-situ hybridization in 1/16 (6%) of CIN/cCIS cases and 2/4 (50%) of SCC cases, while DNA in-situ hybridization failed to detect HPV infection in any of the CIN/cCIS lesions. Reactive atypia and dysplasia observed in papillomas was generally associated with the detection of LR HPV types. Collectively, our findings indicate RNA in-situ hybridization may provide a high-sensitivity approach for identifying HPV infection in squamous lesions of the conjunctiva and facilitate the distinction between reactive atypia and true dysplasia. There was no clear association between HPV infection and atopy in papillomas or dysplastic lesions.

[PMID: 29402465 DOI: 10.1016/j.jfo.2017.09.005] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/30/2017] [Revised: 09/03/2017] [Accepted: 09/04/2017] [Indexed: 01/10/2023]
Abstract
INTRODUCTION Cyclosporine A (CsA) has well-known cutaneous carcinogenic effects when administered systemically. In ophthalmology, it is increasingly used in the form of eye drops since its indication for moderate to severe eye dry eye. The goal of this review of the literature is to evaluate a possible link between topical ocular CsA use and the occurrence of ocular surface neoplasia. MATERIALS AND METHODS A literature review was performed. Publications evaluating the safety and efficacy of topical CsA as well as studies on the epidemiology and risk factors for conjunctival neoplasia and cases of conjunctival neoplasia were analyzed. Finally, post-market surveillance data from commercially available CsA eye drops were also evaluated. RESULTS Five cases of conjunctival neoplasia in patients treated with systemic and/or topical CsA have been described in the literature, three with systemic administration alone, another with combined systemic and local administration, and one case of local administration alone. In these cases, no direct link with the administration of ocular topical CsA could be determined. Among the numerous prospective studies evaluating the safety and efficacy of topical CsA as well as the case-control studies evaluating the risk factors for developing conjunctival neoplasia, no relationship between the occurrence of conjunctival neoplasia and the use of topical ocular CsA was observed. CONCLUSION Despite plausible pathophysiologic mechanisms, to date there is no evidence of an increased risk of ocular surface neoplasia with the use of topical ocular CsA. Further studies specifically addressing this question and with a longer duration are needed in order to precisely evaluate this theoretical risk.
