Abstract:
There has been a growth in publications associating human papilloma virus and head and neck squamous cell carcinoma. The virus has recently been recognised as a causative factor for some head and neck cancers that have a distinct clinical profile of site, age and prognosis. We review the epidemiological trends, mechanism of carcinogenesis, methods of detection, clinical characteristics and discuss the likely future directions of HPVassociated research in head and neck cancer.
