Abstract

Objectives: To review the international and national scientific production on Human Papillomavirus (HPV) and head and neck cancer, focusing on oropharyngeal tumors. Materials and Method: This is a systematic literature review conducted in the PubMed database for electronic resources published between 1999 and 2019. Results: The results indicate that HPV is a factor for the formation of oropharyngeal squamous cells carcinoma (OPSCC), being HPV-16 the most common type of HPV related to OPSCC. Conclusions: Before the elevated rates of morbidity and late diagnosis of head and neck cancer, early diagnosis plays a key role in patients affected with this condition.
