Abstract

Due to the association with the causal HPV-16 infection, the oropharyngeal carcinoma spreads into two separate entities depending on HPV-16 positivity. More recent data show a diversified picture of the importance and prevalence of the surrogate parameter p16 (discordance) for a definitive HPV-16 association, which varies worldwide. In the context of prevention options, vaccination is of major and HPV screening of healthy people only of little importance.
