HLA-A and -B antigens and larynx carcinoma in Greeks.
The frequency of HLA antigens in 30 Greek larynx carcinoma patients was more prominent for the A21, A28 and B17 antigens compared to 400 healthy unrelated controls from the same population. It is suggested that immunogenetic factors may contribute to the pathogenesis of this neoplasia.
