Ten cases of intraepithelial carcinoma, five with Bowenoid features and five with early invasion, and ten cases of invasive vulvar carcinoma were examined by in situ hybridization and Southern blot analysis using DNA probes for human papillomavirus (HPV) types 6, 11, 16, 18 and 31. HPV DNA was detected in 90% of the intraepithelial cases and in 10% of the invasive cases. All positive cases showed the presence of DNA of HPV type 16. The cases with intraepithelial lesions revealed a strong correlation between the presence of HPV type 16 DNA, cigarette smoking habit, other potential cofactors such as herpes simplex (HSV) DNA sequences and the use of contraceptive drugs, and clinicopathologic features of Bowen's type in situ squamous cell carcinoma. Similar associations were not observed among the cases with invasive disease. While HPV-16 is associated with differentiated Bowenoid type vulvar intraepithelial neoplasia, which appears to be the most common form of early carcinoma of the vulva, the same association was not seen with respect to advanced vulvar invasive squamous cell carcinoma. 相似文献

Non-neoplastic HPV-induced alterations of the vulva and vagina are frequent. The traditional three-tier grading system of vulvar intraepithelial neoplasia (VIN) will be replaced by the definition of usual and simplex type of VIN. The usual type is characterized by a strong association to high-risk HPV infections, the occurrence at younger age and multifocality, mostly associated with non-keratinizing squamous cell carcinoma. The differentiated (or simplex) type is rare and shows an association to older age and p53 alterations and is typically diagnosed co-incidentally with keratinizing squamous cell carcinoma. Vaginal intraepithelial neoplasia (VAIN) is still graded into VAIN 1-3 where VAIN?1 and 2 are mostly associated with low-risk HPV infections and a high spontaneous regression rate whereas VAIN 3 represents a high-risk HPV-associated lesion with capable progression into (micro-)invasive carcinoma. The differential diagnosis between a non-neoplastic condylomatous lesion and VIN common type and VAIN may be aided by p16 immunohistochemistry. The HPV-associated invasive vulvo-vaginal cancers are verrucous carcinoma (low-risk HPV) and the high-risk HPV-induced (non-keratinizing) squamous cell carcinoma (NOS), the condylomatous (warty) carcinoma and the very rare vaginal squamo-transitional carcinoma. 相似文献

Vulvar premalignant squamous lesions include low- and high-grade intraepithelial neoplasias. High-grade lesions include usual (classic) and differentiated (simplex) vulvar intraepithelial neoplasia (VIN). Usual VIN (uVIN), the most common, is related to human papilloma virus (HPV), occurs in younger patients, and is frequently multifocal. Differentiated VIN (dVIN), less common, is related to lichen sclerosus and other chronic vulvar dermatoses, occurs in older women, and is usually unifocal. Terminology schemes for premalignant lesions are reviewed. Invasive squamous cell carcinoma also occurs in two distinct clinicopathologic settings. Most conventional keratinizing squamous cell carcinomas arise from a background of dVIN and comprise the majority of invasive squamous tumours. Warty and basaloid invasive squamous cell carcinomas likely develop from uVIN and comprise a minority of invasive tumours. Clinical features, microscopic findings, differential diagnoses, immunoprofiles, prognosis and treatment of premalignant and malignant lesions are addressed. 相似文献

Precursor lesions of vulvar squamous cell carcinoma (VSCC) can be divided into two major biologic and prognostic groups: HPV-associated and HPV-independent VSCC. These two pathways are categorized as usual vulvar intraepithelial neoplasia (uVIN) with progression to basaloid or warty VSCC and differentiated vulvar intraepithelial neoplasia (dVIN) with progression to the more common keratinizing VSCC. While the HPV-dependent pathway to squamous cell carcinoma is well-understood, the development of squamous cell carcinoma from HPV-independent lesions is less clear. The majority of HPV-independent lesions fall into the dVIN category, and mutations in TP53 have been implicated as the driver behind their development. Other less common HPV-independent precursor lesions, termed differentiated exophytic vulvar intraepithelial lesion (DEVIL) and vulvar acanthosis with altered differentiation (VAAD), have also been characterized as precursors to keratinizing and verrucous VSCC. Inflammatory conditions of the vulva such as lichen sclerosus and lichen simplex chronicus also put patients at risk for developing VSCC. We herein evaluate the available evidence and biologic basis for these VSCC precursor lesions, among other speculated entities, and discuss their clinical, diagnostic, and prognostic features. 相似文献

Classification of squamous vulvar precancerous lesions is based on the concept of vulvar intraepithelial neoplasia (VIN) and incorporates a three grade evaluation of the intensity of dysplastic changes (VIN I, II and III). On the basis of histological features, VIN has been subdivided into the usual VIN (u-VIN) and differentiated VIN (d-VIN), which represent the two basic pathways of the pathogenesis of vulvar squamous cell carcinoma. Although u-VIN is etiologically associated with the human papillomavirus (HPV) infection and histologically corresponds to cervical intraepithelial neoplasia, d-VIN represents the HPV-negative sequence of vulvar carcinogenesis, which is linked to lichen sclerosus (LS) and lichen simplex chronicus (LSC). u-VIN preferentially occurs in relatively young women with a history of cervical, vaginal or vulvar premalignant lesions. On the other hand, d-VIN usually affects postmenopausal women without anamnestic data of other dysplastic lesions of the lower female genital tract. d-VIN is characterized by a higher tendency of stromal invasion than u-VIN and its malignant potential is analogous to carcinoma in situ (VIN III). The histological appearance of d-VIN is subtle with basal atypia and a well-preserved differentiation of the superficial parts of the squamous epithelium, therefore it is frequently misdiagnosed for u-VIN I, LS or LSC in vulvar biopsies. Primarily because of the low diagnostic reproducibility of the u-VIN I category and the doubts about its precancerous potential as well as due to the questionable differentiation between u-VIN II and III, a revised VIN classification was proposed in 2004. The grading of vulvar precancerous lesions was abandoned, the u-VIN I category was discontinued and u-VIN II and III were merged. In the revised terminology, the term u-VIN represents HPV-associated high grade precancerous vulvar lesions (formerly u-VIN II and III) and d-VIN encompasses HPV-negative high grade dysplasias. Keywords: vulvar intraepithelial neoplasia - VIN of the usual type - VIN of the differentiated type - lichen sclerosus - lichen simplex chronicus - HPV. 相似文献

Vulvar squamous cell carcinoma (VSCC) accounts for >90% of the malignant tumours of the vulva. Most VSCCs originate in intraepithelial lesions, named vulvar intraepithelial neoplasia (VIN), that precede the development of VSCC by a variable period of time. Strong evidence has accumulated showing that there are two different aetiopathogenic pathways for the development of VSCC and VIN, one associated with infection by human papillomavirus (HPV), and a second independent of HPV infection. These two different types of VSCC have different epidemiological, pathological and clinical characteristics, and should therefore be considered as two separate entities. Histologically, HPV‐associated VSCCs are of the basaloid or warty type, and arise from VIN of the usual type. Inactivation of p53 and the retinoblastoma tumour suppressor gene product by the viral gene products E6 and E7 is involved in the process of malignant transformation. HPV‐independent VSCCs are histologically keratinizing, are associated with differentiated VIN and lichen sclerosus, and frequently show mutations of p53. p16INK4a and p53 immunostaining can be useful for classifying VSCC into HPV‐associated or HPV‐independent. Although large, multicentre studies are needed to definitively assess the involvement of HPV in the prognosis of VSCC, most studies have not found clear differences in survival between HPV‐associated and HPV‐independent tumours. 相似文献

Analysis of clonality and HPV infection in benign, hyperplastic, premalignant, and malignant lesions of the vulvar mucosa 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
Ueda Y Enomoto T Miyatake T Shroyer KR Yoshizaki T Kanao H Ueno Y Sun H Nakashima R Yoshino K Kimura T Haba T Wakasa K Murata Y 《American journal of clinical pathology》2004,122(2):266-274
To elucidate the pathogenesis of vulvar carcinomas, we studied clonality and human papillomavirus (HPV) infection in vulvar epithelial diseases. Monoclonal composition was demonstrated in all 9 invasive tumors (squamous cell carcinoma [SCC], 6; basal cell carcinoma, 1; malignant melanoma, 2), 15 of 20 cases of vulvar intraepithelial neoplasia (VIN), 7 of 9 cases of Paget disease, 2 of 6 cases of lichen sclerosus (LS), and 2 of 3 cases of squamous cell hyperplasia (SCH); high-risk type HPV was revealed in 5 of 6 SCCs and 17 of 20 VINs. These observations might imply that a subset of cases of LS and SCH result from a neoplastic proliferation, similar to VINs but not related to infection with high-risk type HPV. In 1 case of SCC with concurrent VIN 3 in an adjacent lesion, both lesions showed the same pattern of X chromosome inactivation and the presence of HPV-16 in episomal and integrated forms, suggesting that monoclonal expansion triggered by high-risk type HPV integration is an early event for carcinogenesis of HPV-associated SCC. 相似文献

Sixteen cases of squamous cell carcinoma of the anus, including 4 incidentally discovered in situ lesions, and 3 anal condylomas, were examined for the presence of human papillomavirus (HPV). All in situ tumors and 6 of the invasive tumors were associated with histologic changes typical of condyloma, despite the absence of clinical anogenital warts. Immunohistochemical studies for viral capsid antigen gave positive reactions in two anal warts and in the condylomatous area associated with one invasive tumor. In situ hybridization was accomplished using isotopic DNA probes for HPV 6/11, 16, 18, and 31. Human papillomavirus 6/11 was expressed in the corresponding capsid-positive regions in the two warts and the wart-associated invasive carcinoma. Both HPV 6/11 and HPV 16 were associated with one carcinoma in situ, and HPV 16 was also found within two invasive anal carcinomas, one of which was associated with an extensive vulvar cancer. While these observations do not resolve the "passenger" or direct oncogenic role for HPV in anal carcinoma, the circumstantial evidence is that the oncogenic influence is similar to that accepted for female genital tract cancer. 相似文献

The pathogenesis of carcinoma of the vulva is diverse and includes both human papilloma virus (HPV)-positive and HPV-negative pathways. The objective of this study was to correlate the morphology with patterns of loss of heterozygosity (LOH) within four vulvar carcinomas and in adjacent vulvar epithelia. Tumors were categorized as HPV positive or negative by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) analysis. Forty-one different sites of normal squamous mucosa, hyperplasia, vulvar intraepithelial neoplasia (VIN), and carcinoma were microdissected in duplicate, and each extracted DNA was analyzed in duplicate for LOH at 10 chromosomal loci by PCR and polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. Patterns of LOH were compared within different sites of tumors and between the tumor and the noninvasive epithelia. Of three tumors with multiple invasive foci analyzed, divergent patterns of LOH were identified in two, correlating in one with differences in tumor grade. In one HPV-16-positive case, multiple sites of VIN displayed heterogeneity for LOH consistent with divergent clonal or subclonal populations, some of which were not shared by the tumor. In one HPV-negative case, LOH was found in foci of hyperplasia and differentiated VIN (atypical hyperplasia), the latter sharing LOH with the invasive carcinoma at some but not all chromosomal loci. This study suggests that a genetic relationship exists between VIN and carcinoma, irrespective of HPV involvement. It also suggests that in HPV-negative tumors, allelic loss may predate the onset of invasive carcinoma and, in some cases, cellular atypia (VIN). However, the divergent patterns of LOH observed imply that many genetic alterations in the adjacent vulvar epithelium are not directly related to the invasive carcinoma. 相似文献

The association between the human papillomavirus (HPV) and malignant neoplasms of the uterine cervix is well established; however, its role in the pathogenesis of vulvar cancer has not been well defined. This study correlates the clinical and histopathologic features of 21 invasive carcinomas of the vulva with the presence of HPV DNA as detected by Southern blot and polymerase chain reaction (PCR) analysis. By one or both techniques, HPV DNA was detected in 10 of the 21 tumors analyzed; all HPVs containing tumors hybridized with HPV-16 probes, although PCR also detected HPV-6 in two of the HPV-16-containing tumors. No HPV-18 DNA was detected in any tumor by PCR or Southern blot hybridization. Both the invasive cancer and the surrounding intraepithelial disease tended to display histopathologic features that usually could distinguish HPV-associated cancers from those without HPV DNA. The intraepithelial lesions associated with HPV-containing tumors were of the bowenoid type with koilocytosis, while tumors lacking HPV generally demonstrated a simplex type of intraepithelial lesion. Invasive tumors with no viral DNA were more frequently keratinizing than the HPV-containing cancers. Race, parity, hormonal therapy, and alcohol use did not affect the HPV status; however, HPV DNA was more prevalent in the tumors of younger women and in those with a history of tobacco use. Human papillomavirus status had no impact on the stage of disease or its prognosis. These findings identify two subsets of vulvar carcinoma cases based on HPV hybridization data and the histopathologic characteristics of the tumor. 相似文献

BACKGROUND: Differentiated vulvar intraepithelial neoplasia (VIN) is presumed to be the precursor of invasive squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) of the vulva. It is commonly assumed that differentiated VIN is related to lichen sclerosus (LS). However, evidence for this is limited to a small number of studies describing epithelial alterations adjacent to vulvar SCC. AIM: To study the histology and human papillomavirus (HPV) status in patients with a history of both LS and VIN without coexistent SCC. METHODS: Original biopsy specimens and surgical specimens of patients retrieved from the pathology files were revised for the presence of LS, VIN and (early) invasive SCC, specifically focused on the two different types of VIN: differentiated and undifferentiated. Thereafter, VIN lesions were tested for the presence of HPV DNA. RESULTS: Twenty-seven patients fulfilled the criteria for LS and VIN without SCC. In all 27 patients, LS was found to be related to undifferentiated VIN. Grading yielded the following results: VIN 1 (n=10), VIN 2 (n=11) and VIN 3 (n=6). Additionally, VIN lesions from 26 patients could be tested for the presence of HPV DNA. HPV DNA, predominantly type 16, was present in 8 (31%) of them. Seven of these eight patients had VIN 2 or 3. During follow-up, three patients progressed to (early) invasive carcinoma. In two of these patients, differentiated VIN was observed overlying early invasive SCC. CONCLUSIONS: VIN related to LS without coexisting SCC is likely to be undifferentiated, in contrast to what was previously thought. HPV DNA was demonstrated in 31% of the lesions, and was strongly related to high-grade VIN. 相似文献

Although the presence of racial differences in vulvar squamous cell carcinomas has been suggested, fully analyzed data concerning such tumors in Japanese women have not been reported. A total of 21 vulvar squamous cell carcinomas of Japanese women who lived in north-east Japan, were studied with respect to histological subtype, HPV, p53 and p16(INK4a). The majority of tumors consisted of keratinizing and non-keratinizing types (16/21, 76%), all of which were negative for HPV. The remaining five tumors of basaloid, warty or verrucous types were positive for HPV. HPV-negative tumors showed a trend of greater accumulation of gene abnormalities, including p53 gene mutation, than HPV-positive ones. p16(INK4a) overexpression was shown to not always be a marker for vulvar squamous cell carcinoma in Japanese women with activated high-risk HPV. 相似文献

The investigators report the clinical and pathologic features of 19 cases of intraepithelial neoplasia occurring in the anal canal mucosa of routinely excised hemorrhoidal tissue, a condition that has been infrequently described. The patients were 12 women and seven men having an age range of 21 to 74 years (mean, 48 years). Two patients had coexistent anogenital condylomata acuminata. Leukoplakia of the hemorrhoidal surface was noted in two patients. Intraepithelial neoplasia arose in the transition zone of the anal canal of 11 cases, in the squamous zone of three cases, and in both sites of five cases. All were high-grade intraepithelial neoplasms; one was classified moderate to severe dysplasia, 17 exhibited severe dysplasia/carcinoma in situ, and one contained microinvasive carcinoma. Both keratinizing and cloacogenic type neoplasms were observed. Associated koilocytotic atypia was identified in 16 cases (84%). In situ hybridization for human papillomavirus (HPV) messenger RNA demonstrated HPV RNA sequences in seven of nine neoplasms (78%) studied by that technique (five HPV type 16, one HPV type 18, and one coinfection with HPV types 6 and 18). Eighteen patients had no clinically evident recurrent or progressive disease at mean follow-up of 6.6 years. Residual/recurrent intraepithelial neoplasia was noted in one patient at 1, 2, 5, and 49 months posthemorrhoidectomy. Our data indicate that incidentally discovered high-grade intraepithelial neoplasia present in hemorroidal tissue is a clinically nonaggressive lesion frequently associated with HPV infection. Hemorrhoidectomy alone is curative in most cases. 相似文献

A 26-year-old Hispanic woman complaining of "itching" and "herpetic lesions" on the vulva for 9 months was seen at a university hospital. On physical examination, multiple vulvar masses were noted. Biopsies taken from these lesions showed invasive keratinizing squamous cell carcinoma. The vulvectomy specimen revealed 4 tumor masses, the largest located on the mons pubis. Although the incidence of vulvar intraepithelial neoplasia has increased in recent years, only very few cases of invasive carcinoma have been reported in young women. The tumors that occur at a younger age characteristically have basaloid or warty histology, in contrast to those occurring in older women, which usually are well-differentiated keratinizing carcinomas. We believe this is an unusual case of vulvar squamous cell carcinoma. In addition to our patient's young age, her tumor had a histologic profile usually found in lesions of an elderly woman. The tumor was negative for human papillomavirus by polymerase chain reaction analysis and was positive for p53 by immunohistochemistry. 相似文献

Thirty seven cases of oesophageal squamous cell carcinoma were studied by applying DNA slot blot analysis and in situ hybridisation using type specific probes for HPV 6, 11, 16 and 18. Cases of condyloma accuminata, cervical carcinoma, and laryngeal papilloma were used as controls. Blocks including areas of invasive carcinoma, intraepithelial neoplasia, and normal epithelium were studied in each case. No HPV genome was detectable in any of the oesophageal cases. It is concluded that these types of HPV do not have an association with oesophageal squamous cell carcinoma. 相似文献

p16, a member of the INK4a family of cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitors, is known as a negative regulator of cell cycle progression and differentiation. Although p16 has been shown to be a promising biomarker for the detection of cervical intraepithelial neoplasia, few data have been published on vulvar cancer. Using immunohistochemistry, we evaluated the expression of p16 in 80 cases of invasive vulvar squamous cell carcinoma. Results were correlated with clinicopathologic parameters and survival data to determine the prognostic significance of p16 in vulvar cancer. p16 expression was detected in 34 of 80 (43%) cases of invasive vulvar squamous cell carcinoma. The expression was localized to the cytoplasm and the nuclei of the tumor cells. Correlations between p16 expression status and any clinicopathologic variables failed to be of statistical significance. In a univariate analysis, groin lymph node status, tumor stage, and tumor grade were associated with disease-free and overall survival, respectively. Patients positive for p16 expression showed a significantly longer disease-free and overall survival by univariate analysis. p16 expression was not associated with survival in a multivariate Cox-regression model. Our data add on those published in the literature and suggest that p16 may be of prognostic significance in invasive vulvar squamous cell carcinoma. 相似文献

Human papillomavirus type 16 DNA is integrated into chromosome region 12q14-q15 in a cell line derived from a vulvar intraepithelial neoplasia 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

The SK-v cell line, established from a precancerous lesion (a vulvar intraepithelial neoplasia), contains 10 to 20 copies of the human papillomavirus type 16 (HPV16) genome, and was previously shown to derive from a clone of cells present in the patient's lesions. By in situ hybridization the integrated HPV16 DNA sequences were localized to a single site in chromosome region 12q14-q15. The localization of viral sequences to a single nonrearranged chromosome 12 suggests that integration occurred at this site in the patient's premalignant lesions. The INT1 and GLI protooncogenes are located in this chromosomal region. No detectable modification of the structure and expression of these genes was observed by blot hybridization experiments. 相似文献
