Abstract:
Objective To investigate chromosomal gains and losses in association with human papillomavirus status in the vulvar squamous cell carcinomas(VSCC). Methods We analyzed 21 VSCC with comparative genomic hybridization (CGH) and polymerase chain reaction.Results Each case had different degree of variances, including gains and losses of partial or whole chromosome. On average, each case had 4.9(102/21) abnormal regions; losses were more than gains, being respectively 2.6(54/21) and 2.3(48/21). Main variations were gains on chromosomes 3q(43%,9/21),8q(38%,8/21),12q(33%, 7/21 )and 9p(19%,4/21),and losses of 4p(52%,11/21),3p(43%,9/21)and 9p(10%,2/21).Gains of 3q(73%) and 12q(64%) were significantly more common in human papillomavirus (HPV)-positive VSCC compared to HPV-negative VSCC(10%,0;P
