However, until recently, no consensus existed about when and how to test for HPV in patients with head and neck cancers. We aimed to evaluate the use of p16 and HPV testing at our institution because p16 immunohistochemistry is reportedly a reliable surrogate marker for HPV detection in OPSCCs.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title><jats:p>We identified all cases at our institution of primary or metastatic squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) of the head and neck with a concurrent p16 immunostain analysis from January 1, 2013, through August 31, 2018. Patient demographic data, tumor characteristics, p16 result, and any HPV result (in situ hybridization and E6 and E7 RNA test) were captured.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Results<\/jats:title><jats:p>We identified 104 patients. Most primary tumors (53\/57 [93.0%]) and metastases (40\/47 [85.1%]) were positive for p16. Thirty\u2010seven cases (35.6%) had reflex high\u2010risk HPV (HR HPV) testing performed. Of the 35 p16\u2010positive cases, 6 had discrepant HR HPV results (p16<jats:sup>+<\/jats:sup>\/HPV<jats:sup>\u2212<\/jats:sup>). We identified 47 p16 immunostains that were performed on lymph nodes with primary tumors of unknown origin. Most were cytology cases (34\/47 [72.3%]), and most were p16 positive (40\/47 [85.1%]). Neither tumor differentiation nor tumor keratinization was predictive of p16 positivity. Tumors with basaloid differentiation were universally p16 positive.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title><jats:p>p16 immunohistochemistry accurately identifies HPV\u2010positive OPSCC. Cytology specimens have an important role in characterizing SCC of unknown origin. HR HPV testing is not routinely required, and results may be discrepant with p16 findings.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1002\/dc.24593","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2020,8,27]],"date-time":"2020-08-27T00:26:29Z","timestamp":1598487989000},"page":"54-59","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":7,"title":["Utility of p16 and <scp>HPV<\/scp> testing in oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma: An institutional review"],"prefix":"10.1002","volume":"49","author":[{"given":"Dina A.","family":"Abdelhakam","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Clinical Pathology Ain shams University  Cairo Egypt"},{"name":"Department of Cancer Biology Mayo Clinic  Jacksonville, Florida USA"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Katherine A.","family":"Huenerberg","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Pathology George Washington University  Washington District of Columbia USA"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-6678-9329","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Aziza","family":"Nassar","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Laboratory Medicine and Pathology Mayo Clinic  Jacksonville Florida USA"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2020,8,26]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_7_2_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1002\/lary.23298"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_3_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1093\/carcin\/bgt223"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_4_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/0020-7292(83)90015-2"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_5_1","unstructured":"American Cancer Society.Cancer facts & figures;2018.https:\/\/www.cancer.org\/content\/dam\/cancer\u2010org\/research\/cancer\u2010facts\u2010and\u2010statistics\/annual\u2010cancer\u2010facts\u2010and\u2010figures\/2018\/cancer\u2010facts\u2010and\u2010figures\u20102018.pdf.
