概要
Seventy-seven tissue samples from patients with either degree I, II, or III smokeless tobacco keratoses were examined. The tissues were evaluated for the presence of human papillomavirus (HPV) antigen by immunocytochemical staining. Capsid antigen could be identified in sixteen cases (20.78%). This investigation further supports the concept that smokeless tobacco-associated leukoplakias can be correlated with HPV infection.
