“…A high frequency of FEH has been observed among Indians from North, Central, and South America (9,10,12,13), Eskimos from Greetiland and North Canada (14)(15)(16), and people in South Africa (17,18). This condition has also been reported, although less commonly, in individuals from Argentina (19), Australia (20), Denmark (14), East Africa (Sudan) (21), Egypt (22), England (7), Finland (8,23), Scotland (7), Iran (1), Iraq (24), Israel (25), Italy (26), Lybia (27), Mexico (28)(29)(30), the Netherlands (31), North Africa (11), Norway (2,32), Puerto Rico (33), Sweden (34,35), Turkey (II), and West Africa (Nigeria) (36).…”

Two sisters of Mexican ancestry had focal epithelial hyperplasia (FEH). The lesions on the oral mucosa of the older child were initially misinterpreted as representing sexual abuse. Microscopic evaluation of a hematoxylin and eosin-stained section from a lower lip papule demonstrated the histologic features of FEH. Although human papillomavirus (HPV) type 13 and HPV32 have been most consistently present in FEH lesions, types 6, 11, 13, and 32 were not detected in the paraffin-embedded tissue specimen of our patient using an in situ hybridization technique. The lesions persisted or recurred during management using destructive modalities; subsequently, they completely resolved spontaneously.

Recurrent Focal Epithelial Hyperplasia due to HPV13 in an HIV-Positive Patient

et al. 2001

There are few reports on focal epithelial hyperplasia (FEH) in association with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection; thus the relationship between them has not been completely clarified yet. We present a case of recurrent FEH in an HIV-positive man (the first described in Belgium), which, according to the PCR-DNA testing, was due to human papilloma virus type 13 (HPV13). To our knowledge, based on the accessible literature, this type of HPV has not been detected in any other documented study of FEH in HIV-positive patients before. Our patient experienced three recurrences of FEH in 1 year. It is therefore suggested that immunodeficiency due to HIV infection is responsible for the HPV-related FEH and the subsequent recurrences. In order to support the consideration of FEH as an oral manifestation of an HIV-related opportunistic infection, every new ‘HPV-type’ oral lesion in HIV-positive patients must be completely documented.

“…We conducted a population-based study among a confined population and cases and controls were derived from children belonging to the same Embera-Chami community. We used type specific primers to detect HPV 13 (Williamson and Dennis, 1991) and therefore this permitted us to achieve the highest sensitivity in our assay, and improved our analysis by including only those samples with good quality DNA, as evaluated by the amplification of the human ␤-globin gene fragment. In order to avoid invasive procedures in controls, we previously evaluated cytobrush and mouth washes to collect exfoliated cells from oral mucosa.…”

“…Viral typing was performed by the technique described by Williamson and Dennis (1991). The sequence of the specific primers to amplify a segment of 240 bp from the HPV 13 L1 gene were: forward primer 5 -AAATCCCAGCAGAAT-TATAT-3 ; reverse primer 5 -AAAGAGATGATGTAGT-GGC-3 .…”
