Our study described two histopathological NSCC subtypes and associated them with the two clinical subtypes: the blue-basaloid type, HPV-induced, in situ, of periungual localization in younger males; and the pink-keratinizing type, non-HPV-induced, invasive, of subungual site, in elderly. Immunohistochemistry was not contributing on its own, but p16 positivity associated with basaloid histopathological profile helps support HPV etiology.
