Abstract |
Six oral squamous cell tumours classified as focal epithelial hyperplasia (FEH), Condyloma acuminatum (CA) and squamous cell papilloma (SQP) were subjected to indirect immunoperoxidase staining with anti-human papillomavirus (anti-HPV) antiserum to demonstrate the possible presence of HPV antigens in these lesions. The results are discussed in the light of the observations on HPV-lesions elsewhere in the body (in uterine cervix), and a suggestion is made to adopt the name condyloma for all those tumours where HPV aetiology can be established by ultrastructural or immunohistochemical means.
