| Article Title | HPV detection by in situ hybridisation in sinonasal inverted papilloma and squamous cell carcinoma |
| Abstract | Dear Editor: Sinonasal inverted papilloma (SNIP) is a rare benign but locally aggressive tumour with an annual incidence of approximately 0.5–1.5/100 000, accounting for 4.7% of all sinonasal tumours. SNIP may recur and can transform into sinonasal squamous cell carcinoma (SNSCC) (1). Human papillomavirus (HPV) has been linked to SNIP recurrence and malignant progression, with a meta-analysis reporting the incidence of HPV in SNIP as 16.9% (2). This aligns with the results of our previous prospective study (17.8%), showing that the presence of HPV DNA was associated with SNIP recurrence in 90 patients undergoing surgery (3). |
