Role of human papillomavirus in laryngeal squamous cell carcinoma: A meta-analysis of cohort study.

This study evaluated the survival impact of HPV infection in LSCC patients. The OS of the HPV-positive group was better than that of the HPV-negative group in terms of short-term survival. Compared with the HPV-negative group, the HPV-positive group had a better trend of DFS, suggesting that a larger sample size and further exploration of the pathology and local control of HPV-positive tumors are needed.
