We demonstrate high-risk HPV-positivity in approximately one-third of patients with pSCC. Morphologic evaluation alone had a high sensitivity in correctly determining HPV status. Our results suggest that high-risk HPV status and morphologic features (differentiation in high-risk HPV-negative, and basaloid subtype in high-risk HPV-positive pSCC) may have prognostic value.
