Zusammenfassung:PURPOSE: To report evidence of many human papillomavirus types occurring in a solitary syringoma clinically appearing as a papilloma. METHODS: A 57-year-old man presented with a 10-year history of an upper eyelid tumor. Histopathology, human papillomavirus–nested polymerase chain reaction, human papillomavirus–DNA cloning into vector pCR2.1, sequencing, and computer-assisted evaluation were performed. RESULTS: Histopathology demonstrated a solitary benign syringoma. HPV-20 and HPV-23 were present in one clone each, and HPV–5–related HPV-DL332 was present in 9 clones. CONCLUSION: Many human papillomavirus types may be detected in an ocular syringoma.
