摘要
Human papillomavirus(HPV)related squamous cell carcinoma(SCC)involving the anal canal is a well-known carcinoma associated with high-risk types of HPV.HPVrelated SCC with papillary morphology(papillary SCC)has been described in the oropharynx.We describe,for the first time,a case of anal HPV-related squamous carcinoma with papillary morphology.The tumor arose from the anal mucosa.The biopsies revealed a superficially invasive SCCwith prominent papillary features and associated in situ carcinoma.The tumor cells were positive for p16 and were also positive for high-risk types of HPV using chromogenic in situ hybridization.The findings are consistent with a HPV-related SCC of the anal canal with papillary features.This tumor shows histologic features similar to a papillary HPV-related SCC of the oropharynx.Additional studies are needed to characterize these lesions.
