Abstract:
A 27-year-old woman suffering from panmyelopathy for six years presented with a cervical low grade squamous intraepithelial lesion (SIL), vulvar high grade SIL and perianal squamous cell carcinoma with an inguinal metastasis. Southern blot hybridization with 32P-labeled human papillomavirus (HPV) DNA revealed HPV 16 DNA in varying copy numbers in material from the four locations. HPV 16 genomes persisting after surgery on the perianal tumor area were no longer detectable after betatron radiotherapy.
