Focal epithelial hyperplasia(FEH) is Human papilloma virus - induced, localized proliferation of oral squamous epithelium. FEH usually occurs in the childhood, but occasionally affects the young and middle-aged adults. Sites of the greatest involvement include the labial, buccal and lingual mucosa, but lesions of gingiva or tongue have also been reported. This disease is typically characterized by multiple soft, non-tender flattened papules and plaques. Occasional lesions show a slight papillary surface change. Individual lesions are small, discrete and well demarcated. The histopathologic hallmark of FEH is acanthosis of the oral epithelium. Cells demonstrating viral cytopathic changes including koilocytes or mitosoid cells may be present. The 5-year-old female of this case visited Department of Pediatric Dentistry, College of Dentistry, Yonsei University with a chief complaint of exophytic lesions on gingiva. Sessile papillary papules were detected by clinical examination on buccal gingiva at the maxillary left and right second deciduous molars. The patient did not complain of pain by palpation. An excisional biopsy was carried out for a histological examination and acanthosis was observed. The lesions were diagnosed as FEH. FEH would regress spontaneously after several months or years. Conservative excision may be performed for diagnostic or esthetic purpose. The risk of recurrence after this therapy is minimal, and there is no malignant transformation.

Here we describe the histological lesion of a viral fibro-papilloma in a hedgehog. After surgical removal from maxilla, the solitary swollen mass was round to oval, yellowish with rough surface and measuring $6{\times}3{\times}2mm$ approximately. The tumor mass was submitted to the laboratory of pathology, college of veterinary medicine, Kyungpook National University for pathological diagnosis. Pathological examination of the tumor was established, the tumor was described grossly and sample was trimmed, sectioned and routinely prepared for histopathological evaluation. The tumor mass was diagnosed as viral fibro-papilloma, as the histological picture showed characteristic features of warts caused by papillomaviruses. The tumor characterized by thickening of the stratum spinosum (acanthosis) and basale, koilocytosis, intra-nuclear inclusion bodies in keratinocytes and fibrosis of submucosa. Further, viral inclusion bodies were demonstrated by Machiavello stain giving red color to the nuclei. No lymphocytes that responsible for regression of the wart could be detected, suggesting the poor possibility of spontaneous regression of the tumor. Papillomatosis is a disease of young animals, but in our case the infected Hedgehog was 5 years old, that maybe due to an impaired immune system, which is also shown by absence of lymphocytes. To the best knowledge of the author, this case presents the first report of viral fibropapillomatosis in Hedgehog.

연구 및 목적 : 이번 연구의 목적은 한국인에서 편도 편평세포암종의 발생에 고위험 인간유두종 바이러스(high risk human pap-illomavirus)의 역할 및 관여 인자에 대해 밝히고자 한다. 재료 및 방법 : 연구는 편도 편평상피세포암종으로 진단받은 54명을 대상으로 하였다. 고위험 인간유두종 바이러스의 감염을 알기위해 in situ hybridization 방법을 이용하였다. 고위험 인간유두종 바이러스의 감염과 나이, 성별, 흡연, 음주, 병기, 병리학적 특징 등과의 관계를 분석하였다. 결 과 : 고위험 인간유두종 바이러스의 양성율은 31.5%(17/54)였다. 고위험 인간유두종 바이러스 감염은 젊은 연령(50세 미만), 비흡연자, 림프절 전이와 유의한 상관관계가 있었다(각각 p=0.008, p=0.042, p=0.027). 하지만 성별, 음주, 원발부위 병기, 종양분화도, 피막외침범, 혈관 및 신경 침범과 고위험 인간유두종 바이러스와의 관계는 통계적으로 유의하지 않았다. 6개월 이상 추적 관찰이 가능한 환자를 대상으로 조사한 5년 전체 생존율 및 질병 특이 생존율은 각각 60%와 62%였다. 고위험 인간유두종 바이러스의 양성율은 질병 특이 생존율과 유의한 상관관계가 있었다(p=0.019). 결 론 : 한국인의 고위험 인간유두종 바이러스 감염은 젊은 연령 및 비흡연자의 편도 편평세포암종의 발생에 관련이 있고 예후 인자로 중요한 역할을 한다.

구제역은 구제역 바이러스의 감염에 의한 우제류 동물의 악성전염병으로서 입, 혀, 발굽 및 유두 등에 물집(수포)이 생기고, 체온의 상승과 식욕저하가 수반되는 것이 특징으로서 세계동물보건기구(OIE) 지정 가축전염병 및 가축전염병예방법상 제1종 가축전염병에 속한다. 전파속도가 매우 빨라 한 번 발생하면 근절이 쉽지 않다. 소, 돼지, 양 및 염소가 주요 감수성 동물이다. 한 동물이 감염되었을 때, 이환율이 높아 대부분의 같은 집단에 있는 모든 동물은 감염될 수 있다. 임상증상 관찰은 구제역 방역의 성패를 좌우할 정도로 매우 중요하다. 증상을 초기에 발견했다하더라도 증상이 보이기 3-4일 전부터 동물로부터 바이러스가 배출되므로 주변에 퍼져 있을 가능성이 크기 때문이다. 이 글에서는 구제역 재발방지를 위해 구제역에 대한 동물별의 전형적인 증상 특징을 알아보고, 우리나라에서 발생되었던 구제역의 임상증상을 특징을 고찰하고자 하였다.

Verruca vulgaris is one of the most frequent lesions of the skin. Evidences support that this lesion has strong association with low-risk human papillomavirus. Unlike skin lesion, oral verrucae vulgaris are not easily encountered and often misdiagnosed as squamous papilloma. Herein, we reported eight cases of oral verruca vulgaris and analyzed their clinicopathological features.

Verruca vulgaris of the larynx (VVL) is an extremely rare disease that can be easily misdiagnosed as papillary keratosis, squamous papilloma or verrucous carcinoma, which would have led to needless operation. We experienced a case of VVL in a 66-year-old man with 1-year history of progressive hoarseness. Whitish lesions in both vocal cords were observed by using indirect laryngoscopy and completely removed via microlaryngeal surgery with $CO_2$ laser.

세포선별검사에서 ASCUS로 진단된 검체 중 F-UP이 진행되지 않은 검체 179건을 대상으로 HPV High risk factor, Low risk factor를 확인하기 위해서 Hybrid Capture II Test를 하였다. 결과 High risk factor 양성 및 Low risk factor 양성은 전체 179 cases 중 25 cases로 나타났으며, 전체 검체 중 약 15%에 해당되었다. 또한 전체 15%의 양성검체 중 High risk factor 양성은 87%에 해당되는 것을 확인하였다. 결론적으로 효과적인 검진 체계를 갖춘 나라에서도 자궁경부암의 예방이 완전히 해결되지 않고 있는 문제점이 있는 여건을 고려해 볼 때 추적 관찰이 용이하지 않은 경우를 대비해 자궁경부암으로 진행될 수 있는 precancerous lesion의 원인 인자인 HPV 존재 유무를 세포선별검사와 HPV Hybrid Capture II Test를 동시에 시행하는 것이 효과적이라고 사료된다.

Purpose: This descriptive research study aims to investigate influential factors on human papillomavirus vaccines, among parents who have elementary school daughters. Methods: This study was conducted with 210 parents whose children are elementary school girls, aged 9 to 12 years, in G Metropolitan City. Data were collected from August 17 to September 12, 2015 using structured questionnaires. A descriptive statistical analysis, a t-test, a ${\chi}^2-test$, a Fisher's exact test, and a logistic regression using SPSS/WIN 21.0. Results: The influential factors on the human papillomavirus vaccination intention were confirmed to be three variables: cervical cancer knowledge, perceived sensitivity, and perceived barriers. Conclusion: An intervention program, both to increase the sensitivity of vaccination and to decrease barriers, should be developed so as to improve parents' health beliefs towards human papillomavirus vaccination.

We describe a 44-year-old woman with paresthesia, fatigue, and palpitation, 10 days after human papillomavirus (HPV) vaccination. The quantitative sensory test showed abnormal detection threshold in her foot. Tilt test result indicated postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome. Symptoms were improved after immunomodulating therapy, pain control drug, and oral beta blocker medication. This is first case report for small fiber neuropathy and autonomic dysfunction after HPV vaccination in Korea.

Human papillomavirus (HPV) infection is a necessary precondition of cervical cancer. A change from cytology to molecular HPV testing is, however, challenging. A new HPV DNA chip test for the infection of 22 HPV genotypes were developed in Korea. The purpose of this study was to investigate the prevalence and genotype distribution of HPV infection in the Seoul area. Over the last year, a total of 5,614 samples were tested. Using a chip test, HPV genotypes were detected in 1,596 (28.4%); of which, 679 (42.5%) were considered as high risk and low risk HPV were 152 (9.5%). 831 were single positive samples (n=1596). The most frequently found genotypes in all HPV-single positive samples (n=831) were HPV-16 (16.5%), 58 (15.2%), 52 (8.8%), 51 (7.1%) and 56 (5.9%). Mixed genotypes (n=219) were detected in 2 (n=176, 11.0%), 3 (n=37, 5.9%), and 4 (n=2, 0.1%) positive samples (n=1596). This study demonstrated that epidemical investigated HPV infection in patients of general hospital. These findings could be used to indicate a nationwide distribution of HPV and the adoption of vaccines. It is hoped that additional epidemiological research regarding the outcomes that are important to decision makers will be conducted.
