Presence of human papilloma virus in a series of breast carcinoma from Argentina.

<h4>Background</h4>The etiology and the molecular mechanisms related to breast carcinogenesis remain poorly understood. Some recent reports have examined the role of Human Papillomavirus (HPV) in this disease. The purpose of this study was to determine the prevalence of HPV in breast can...
