Abstract Introduction/Objective Human Papilloma Virus (HPV)-related multiphenotypic sinonasal carcinoma, previously known as HPV-related sinonasal carcinoma with adenoid cystic carcinoma-like features, is a rare type of sinonasal carcinoma with both epithelial-derived and salivary gland-type morphologic features. It is associated with high-risk HPV, but lacks MYB gene rearrangements. Methods/Case Report We report a case of a 59-year-old male who presented with a rapidly growing sinonasal mass. On MRI, a left nasal cavity lesion was identified growing laterally along the frontal process of the maxilla, extending into the middle meatus and into the maxillary sinus. Patient underwent a complex left medial maxillectomy, spheno- ethmoidectomy, and sinusotomy. On gross evaluation, the left inferior turbinate and sidewall demonstrated a 4 cm unremarkable turbinate with attached friable soft tissue. Microscopic examination revealed sections of carcinoma with various architectural patterns comprised of foci with adenoid cystic carcinoma-like morphology, basaloid squamous cell carcinoma and adenocarcinoma. The tumor showed positive immunostaining for P40, but focal reactivity to S100 and rare scattered reactivity with CD117. INI-1 immunostain was retained in tumor cells. P16 immunostain was strong and diffuse and high-risk cocktail HPV RNA ISH was positive. However, MYB FISH testing was equivocal. Morphologic and immunophenotypic findings were consistent with HPV-related multiphenotypic sinonasal carcinoma. The tumor involved the olfactory nerve fibers requiring a skull base resection and showed extension into the dura mater. Results (if a Case Study enter NA) NA Conclusion HPV related multiphenotypic sinonasal carcinoma is a recently described entity that can pose significant diagnostic challenge. It typically has an indolent clinical course with potential for late recurrences. This case study highlights the potential aggressive nature of this type of sinonasal carcinoma, despite association with high-risk HPV, and use of ancillary testing in aiding diagnosis.

Background: Several studies have shown the presence of onco viral DNA in colorectal tumor tissues. Viral infection by onco-viruses such as Human papillomaviruses (HPVs) and Epstein–Barr virus (EBV) are well-known to be involved in the onset and/or progression of numerous human carcinomas. Methods: We explored the co-presence of high-risk HPVs and EBV in a cohort of colorectal cancer samples from Lebanon (94) and Syria (102) by PCR, immunohistochemistry and tissue microarray. Results: The results of the study point out that 54% of colorectal cancer cases in Syria are positive for high-risk HPVs, while 30% of the cases in Lebanon are positive for these viruses; the most frequent high-risk HPV types in these populations are 16, 18, 31, 33 and 35. Analysis of LMP1 showed similar results in both populations; 36% of Syrian and 31% of Lebanese samples. Additionally, we report that EBV and high-risk HPVs are co-present in these samples. In Syrian samples, EBV and HPVs are co-present in 16% of the population, however, in the Lebanese samples, 20% of the cases are positive for both EBV and HPVs; their co-presence is associated with high/intermediate grade invasive carcinomas. Conclusion: These data suggest that EBV and high-risk HPVs are co-present in human colorectal cancers where they can cooperate in the progression of these cancers. Nevertheless, further studies are needed to elucidate the role of those oncoviruses in the development of human colorectal carcinomas.

Introduction: Infection with HPV is the main cause of cervical cancer. Determining HPV infection and the types of HPV plays an important role in diagnosis, treatment and prognosis of cervicitis/cervical cancer. Aims: Determining proportion of high-risk HPV types and the occurrence of coinfection with multiple HPV types. Methods: 177 women with cervicitis or abnormal Pap smear result were enrolled in the study. Performing the real-time PCR for detecting HPV and the reverse DOT-BLOT assay for determining type of HPV in cases of positive PCR. Results: 7 types of high-risk HPV was dectected, the majority of these types were HPV type 18 (74.6%) and HPV type 16 (37.6%); the proportion of infection with only one type of HPV was 30.4% and coinfection with multiple HPV types was higher (69.6%), the coinfected cases with 2 and 3 types were dominated (32.2% and 20.3%, respectively) and the coinfected cases with 4 and 5 types were rare. Conclusion: Use of the real-time PCR and reverse DOT-BLOT assay can determine the high-risk HPV types and the occurrence of coinfection with multiple HPV types. Key words: HPV type, Reverse DOT-BLOT, real-time PCR,PCR, cervical cancer
