Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: The mechanism underlying the malignant transformation of inverted papilloma (IP) has not yet been elucidated. METHODS: To clarify the genes responsible for the malignant transformation, we analyzed 10 cases of IP, 8 of IP with dysplasia, and 11 of squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) by targeted amplicon sequencing. RESULTS: The number of mutant genes increased in the order of IP < dysplasia < SCC....
