Transcriptionally Active HPV and Targetable EGFR Mutations in Sinonasal Inverted Papilloma: An Association Between Low-risk HPV, Condylomatous Morphology, and Cancer Risk?

Abstract excerpt

Sinonasal inverted papillomas (IPs) commonly recur, and transform to malignancy in 5% to 10% of patients. It has long been debated whether IPs are caused by high-risk or low-risk (lr) human papillomavirus (HPV) and whether the HPV is transcriptionally active. EGFR mutations have also been recently implicated in the pathogenesis of IP with an unclear relationship to HPV status. IP cases over a 10-year period were...
