TI  - Human papillomavirus infection and primary fallopian tube carcinoma: a 
      seroepidemiological study.
PG  - 425-9
AB  - OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the role of human papillomavirus (HPV) types 6, 11, 16, 
      18, 31 or 33 infection in primary fallopian tube carcinoma (PFTC). DESIGN: A 
      retrospective case-control study. SETTING: Department of Obstetrics and 
      Gynaecology, Helsinki University Hospital, Finland. POPULATION: Seventy-eight 
      consecutive women with PFTC diagnosed between 1985 and 2000 were studied. For 
      each case, two healthy controls were selected. METHODS: Serum immunoglobulin G 
      antibodies to HPV types 6, 11, 16, 18, 31 and 33 were measured from women with 
      PFTC and their healthy controls. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Analysis of HPV 6, 11, 
      18, 31 and 33 seropositivity among women with PFTC and controls. RESULTS: 
      Seropositivity rates of non-oncogenic or oncogenic HPV types did not differ 
      between cases and controls, odds ratios being 1.04-1.30 for oncogenic HPVs and 
      1.08-1.19 for non-oncogenic HPVs, similarly. We did not find any multiplicative 
      joint effect in PFTC by antibodies to more than one oncogenic HPV type; neither 
      did we find any antagonistic effect among women with antibodies to non-oncogenic 
      and oncogenic HPV types. CONCLUSIONS: Our results do not suggest any link between 
      PFTC and serological evidence for HPV infection.
