The detection of human papillomavirus (HPV) in a case of minimal deviation adenocarcinoma of the uterine cervix (adenoma malignum) using in situ hybridization.
HPV-16 and HPV-18 DNA sequences were detected in a case of minimal deviation adenocarcinoma (MDA), a rare pathological type of uterine cervical cancer. This result suggests HPV to be associated with MDA as well as with other pathological types of cervical cancer.
