| Summary: | This review is devoted to assessing the prevalence of human papillomavirus (HPV) in head and neck tumors (HNC). HPV is recognized as the etiological factor of cervical cancer, but it may be involved in other tumors progression. Of the 28 studies presented, 6 studies showed a low incidence of HPV in HNC tissue (1.6—6.2 %).Most often, HPV was detected in Singapore (90.6 %), Japan (100 %) and France (94.7 %). Most often found 16 types of virus (82 %) and 18 types (43 %). Low-grade HPV type 11 was most often observed in the Russian Federation (19 %). The frequency of occurrence of HPV in HNC varies, which raises the question about impact HPV and co-infection in HNC progression. It makes further research in this area relevant and promising. |
