  • Background: The aim of this study was to screen for human papillomavirus (HPV) infections in head and neck squamous cell carcinomas (HNSCCs) using P16 immunostaining. Materials and Methods: A retrospective study was performed on 150 samples from patients diagnosed with HNSCCs. HPV status was determined using $p16^{INK4A}$. Results: 31 of the 150 (20.7%) HNSCCs were HPV positive. Conclusions: A large proportion of HNSCCs in Sudan are associated with HPV infection. The fact that the prevalence of HPV is high among Sudanese patients with head and neck cancers (HNC) has obvious implications for vaccine therapy.

  • Chronic burn scars often cause various skin malignancies at rates of up to 2%. These lesions are usually squamous cell carcinomas, but rarely, malignant melanoma is reported. We report a 67-year-old male with a malignant melanoma on a burn scar with regional metastasis. This patient presented an ulcerative lesion only in 2 weeks. After histopathological diagnosis, we performed only palliative surgery on patient's demand, and followed up the subsequent deterioration course. Our case reemphasizes the need for rapid diagnosis and treatment when suspect lesions are present on chronic burn scar. Also, physician should be in mind and inform the patient about malignant melanoma and its aggressive course.

  • Purpose: To evaluate the expression of p16 and Ki67 in cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN) and cancer. Materials and Methods: We performed a immunohistochemical study of p16 and Ki67 in 243 cervical tissues - 53 non-dysplastic lesions, 106 CIN1, 61 CIN2/3 and 23 squamous cell carcinomas. The expression of p16 and Ki67 was interpreted independently by 2 researchers and the sensitivity and specificity to detect clinically significant lesions (${\geq}CIN2$) were determined. Results: The overall agreement results of positive or negative immunostaining of intra-inter observer variability were 0.659 for p16 and 0.808 for Ki67. p16 expression was demonstrated in 91.3% of invasive carcinomas, 78.7% of CIN2/3, 10.4% of CIN1 and 9.4% of non-dysplasic lesions. The corresponding Ki67 expression was: 100% of all invasive carcinomas, 75.4% of CIN2/3, 22.6% of CIN1, and 11.3% with non-dysplasia. The expression was significantly different between CIN2/3 vs CIN1 for both p16 and Ki67 (p-values <0.001 both), and cancer vs CIN2/3 for Ki67 (p-value 0.008). The differences were not significant between CIN1 vs non-dysplasia (p-values 1.000 for p16 and 0.130 of Ki67), and cancer vs CIN2/3 for p16 (p value 0.219). The sensitivity and specificity to detect > CIN2 were 84.5% and 90.5% by p16 and 82.1% and 88.6% by Ki67. Conclusions: The rates for 16 and Ki67 expression were directly associated with the severity of cervical lesions. Significant differences in these markers expression may be useful in cases with equivocal histologic features among cervical intraepithelial lesions, but not between CIN1 and non-dysplastic lesions. The two markers had high sensitivity and specificity in determining >CIN2.

  • 연구목적: 폐암은 생불학적 및 병리학적인 특성에 따라 비소세포폐암과 소세포폐암으로 구분되는데 전체폐암의 약 80%가 비소세포폐암으로 국소적인 폐암인 경우 수술적 치료가 절대적 완치 방법인데 조기에 발견하여 광범위한 절제로 치료된 경우에도 환자의 약 50% 정도만이 5년간 생존한다. 확실히 비소세포폐암에서 비슷한 병기의 환자들도 생존 가망성은 상당한 차이를 보인다. 이러한 상황이 보다 정확히 생존 가망성을 예측하고 각각의 환자에게 보다 효율적인 치료를 제공할 수 있게 도울 수 있는 새로운 예측 인자를 밝혀야 하는 필요성이 제기되었다. 정상적인 세포주기 뿐만 아니라 암종의 세포주기에 중요한 역할을 하는 cyclin D계중 하나인 cyclin D1이 세포주기에서 G1기에서 S기로의 전환을 유도하므로써 세포주기를 진행시키는데 유방암, 식도암 및 방광암에서 이의 과발현이 암발생에 중요한 요인이 되다는 보고가 있다. 이에 본 연구에서는 광범위 절제된 비소세포폐암에서 cyclin D1의 과발현이 예후에 미치는 영향을 알아보기 위해 연구를 시행하였다. 방 법: 1983년 1월부터 1995년 7월까지 한양대학교 부속병원에서 비소세포폐암으로 진단된 술전 병기 IIIa 이하인 환자 총 81예를 대상으로 치료적 목적으로 광범위 폐절제술을 통해 얻어진 술후 조직에서 cyclin D1에 대한 단클론성 향체를 사용하여 면역조직화화적 염색을 시행하고 더불어 병리조직학적 특정과 임상적 특정, 특히 생존률과의 연관성을 알아보았다. 또한 술후 환자의 예후적 인자를 최소한으로 줄이기 위해 술전에 방사선 치료나 항암제 치료를 받은 환자는 제외하였고 혼합형의 조직학적 진단이 이루어진 경우와 술후 l달 이내에 사망한 경우는 본 연구의 대상에서 제외하였다. 조직병리학적 병기 판정은 TNM 병기 판정 기준에 맞추었고 조직학적 특징은 WHO 표준 기준에 맞추었다. 결 과: Cyclin D1의 발현은 총 81예에서 시행하여 26에에서 발현되어 30.9%의 발현율을 보였고 각각의 조직형이나 병기, 암의 크기에는 통계적 차이를 보이지 않았으나 TNM 병기 판정에 따라 NO와 나머지 N1-3의 두군으로 나누어 비교할 때 cyclin D1에 따른 통계적 의의를 보였고(p=0.035) cyclin D1 양성 발현군의 평균생존기간은 $22.76{\pm}3.507$개월, 음성 발현군의 평균생존기간이 $45.3{\pm}5.64$개월 (p=0.0515)로 생존율과외 상당한 통계적인 연관성의 가능성을 나타내었다. 결 론: 본 연구에서는 여러 가지 세포주기를 직, 간접으로 조절하는 인자중 cyclin D1의 과발현은 비소세포폐암에서 상당히 불량한 예후 인자로 작용할 수 있다고 생각되며 앞으로 보다 초기와 진행된 병기에 따른 cyclin D1의 발현이 예후에 미치는 영향 등 보다 세밀하고 대단위적인 연구가 진행되어 비소세포폐암에서 보다 정확한 치료와 예후를 예측활 수 있는 인자로서의 역할을 밝혀야 한다고 생각된다.

  • Background: Head and neck SCC is a common cancer related to various factors. IL-10, a pleiotropic cytokine produced by macrophages, T-helper-2 cells, and B lymphocytes, is thought to play a potential pathogenetic or therapeutic role in a number of human conditions, such as inflammation, autoimmunity and cancer. The present study was designed to evaluate the relation between tissue expression, serum and salivary levels of IL-10 in head and neck squamous cell carcinomas (HNSCCs) and their correlation with clinicopathologic features. Materials and Methods: Samples were collected from 30 patients with HNSCCs and 24 healthy volunteers. IHC analysis was used to examine the tissue expression and ELISA was employed to measure serum and salivary levels. Results: Our study showed tissue expression of IL-10 to be significantily higher in patients (P: 0.001), but there was no relation between tissue expression, serum and salivary levels of the marker (P>0.05). Also except for a positive correlation between tissue expression of IL-10 and stage (P: 0.044), there was no relation between this marker and clinicopathologic features. There was no correlation between serum and salivary levels in either patients or controls. Conclusions: It seems there is no correlation between level of IL-10 in serum and saliva and this marker in saliva and serum does not reflect tissue expression.

  • Objective: We aimed to define clinicopathologic risk factors associated with regional recurrence (RR) and thus the effectiveness of postoperative radiotherapy (PORT) for neck control for head and neck squamous cell carcinomas (HNSCCs) with differing cervical lymph node status. Methods: A retrospective study was performed in 196 HNSCC patients with pathologically positive neck node (N+) to evaluate the high-risk factors for RR and to define the role of PORT in control after neck dissection and postoperative radiotherapy (PORT). Results: Overall, the RR rate after neck dissection and PORT was 29%. Extracapsular spread (ECS) was confirmed to be the only independent risk factor for RR. There were no significant risk factors associated with RR in the ECS- group. The 5-year disease-specific survival rate was 45%, which descended to 10% with the emergence of RR. Conclusions: ECS remains a determined risk factor for RR after neck dissection and PORT in patients with N+. PORT alone is not adequate for preventing RR in the neck with ECS after neck dissection. More intensive postoperative adjuvant therapies, especially combined chemotherapy and radiotherapy, are needed to prevent regional failure in HNSCC patients with ECS.

  • Infection with high-risk human papillomavirus (HR-HPV) is an essential cause of cervical cancer. Because of substantial geographical variation in the HPV genotype distribution, data regarding HPV type-specific prevalence for a particular country are mandatory for providing baseline information to estimate effectiveness of currently implemented HPV-based cervical cancer prevention. Accordingly, this review was conducted to evaluate the HR-HPV genotype distribution among Thai women with precancerous cervical lesions i.e. cervical intraepithelial neoplasia grade 2-3 (CIN 2-3), adenocarcinoma in situ (AIS), and invasive cervical cancer by reviewing the available literature. The prevalence of HR-HPV infection among Thai women with CIN 2-3 ranged from 64.8% to 90.1% and the three most common genotypes were HPV 16 (38.5%), HPV 58 (20.0%), and HPV 18 (5.5%). There were high squamous cell carcinoma/CIN 2-3 prevalence ratios in women with CIN 2-3 infected with HPV 33 and HPV 58 (1.40 and 1.38, respectively), emphasizing the importance of these subtypes in the risk of progression to invasive cancer among Thai women. Data regarding the prevalence and genotype distribution of HR-HPV in Thai women with AIS remain unavailable. Interesting findings about the distribution of HPV genotype in cervical cancer among Thai women include: (1) a relatively high prevalence of HPV 52 and HPV 58 in invasive squamous cell carcinoma; (2) the prevalence of HPV 18-related adenocarcinoma is almost double thepreviously reported prevalence, and (3) 75% of neuroendocrine carcinomas are HPV18-positive when taking into account both single and multiple infections.
