HPV in Head and Neck Carcinomas (Editorial, N Engl J Med 2007:356;1993 - 1995) . The last sentence of the fourth paragraph should have read “Moreover, on pathological examination of paraffin-embedded specimens with the use of in situ hybridization, HPV-16 was found in 72% of 100 oropharyngeal cancers sampled,” rather than “HPV-16 was found in 72% of 60 oropharyngeal cancers sampled.” The text has been corrected on the Journal's Web site at www.nejm.org.
