Research Abstract	It is reported that human papillomavirus (HPV) contributes to the carcinogenesis of uterine cervical adenocarcinoma (UCAC). However, details concerning the relationship between UCAC and HPV are not still well understood. In this study, we aimed to grasp the accurate frequency of HPV-ralated UCAC and the status of antioncogenes at the presence or absence of HPV. HPV may play a role for the carcinogenesis in some cervical adenocarcinomas. However, we must pay attention to other factors more.
