ABSTRACT
Localized cutaneous amyloidosis was reported recently in association with vulvar squamous intraepithelial neoplasia (VIN). High-risk human papillomavirus (hrHPV) type 16 is the most commonly reported subtype found in usual-type VIN. However, it is unknown whether any hrHPV subtype(s) is/are prevalent in simultaneous squamous intraepithelial lesions and localized amyloidosis in the same individual - the subject matter of this report. To observe the potential clinical significance, study cases were followed and compared to usual-type VINs without amyloid deposition. Of 45 patients of usual-type VINs associated with amyloidosis, 33 had detectable hrHPV, and 12 were negative. HPV 16 alone or in combination with HPV 31 accounted for 72%, HPV 51 alone accounted for 2% of the cases, and 26% were negative for hrHPV. Lack of demonstrable hrHPV in a significant proportion of cases (26%) raises the possibility of a novel or presently undetected hrHPV subtype. Five of the total 22 (23%) patients with amyloid had either Squamous cell carcinoma or high-grade VIN on follow-up. In contrast, 14 of 18 (78%) patients exhibiting lesions without amyloid had disease on follow-up. These findings may indicate that amyloid deposition may represent a feature of regression or a potential favorable prognostic indicator.
