Abstract | AIM: MATERIALS AND METHODS: RESULTS: HPV 18 and the polyclonal HPV antibody was detected in all adenosquamous endometrial carcinomas, both in the endometrioid (n = 7/8) and squamous (n = 8/8) parts of the tumor. Neither ER-alpha or ER-beta were detectable in any tumor, in contrast to PR-A and PR-B which were detected in about half of these tumors (PR-A: n = 5/8 and PR-B: n = 2/8). Inhibin-alpha and -betaB were not detected, while inhibin-betaA was expressed in all adenosquamous carcinomas. CONCLUSION:
