   Sammanfattning : Background: Human papillomavirus (HPV) is known to cause recurrent respiratory papilloma (RRP) and certain types of oropharyngeal cancer. HPV has also been associated with sinonasal inverted papilloma (SIP). LÄS MER

5. 4. Immune cells in human pharyngeal and palatine tonsils and in the uvula : tissue distribution, cellular composition and functional properties
