Research Abstract |
The aim of this study was to assess the correct ratio of infection of HPV and its subtype of adenocarcinoma itself, using laser capture microdissection method to eliminate the contamination of squamous cells and stromal cells. We analyzed 60 adenocarcinomas of the uterine cervix (19 endometrioid type, 37 endocervical type, 1 intestinal type, 2 poor differentiated type and 1 unclassified adenocarcinoma), and 16 of squamous epithelium around the adenocarcinoma for presence of human papillomavirus and viral subtype using laser capture microdissection method and polymerase chain reaction method. There are 21 cases with HPV of 37 endocervical types (56.8%), 15 of 19 endometrioid types (78.9%), 1 of 2 poor differentiated types (50.0%), 1 of 1 unclassified type, respectively. And there is no case with HPV in intestinal type. Totally, we found 38 cases with HPV of 60 adenocarcinomas of the cervix (63.3%). There is no case demonstrated different type between adenocarcinoma and CIN around adenocarcinoma. Our studies support that human papillomavirus may play a certain role in the adenocarcinoma pathogenesis of the uterine cervix.
