P16
Immunostain in short

HSIL showing the characteristic p16 staining. (WC/Nephron)
Similar stains HPV
Use HSIL versus LSIL, HPV associated SCC versus non-HPV associated SCC
Subspeciality gynecologic pathology, head and neck pathology
Normal staining pattern nuclear and cytoplasmic
Positive endometrial tubal metaplasia, cervical SCC, HPV-associated head and neck SCC, serous carcinoma of the endometrium
Endocervical AIS showing the characteristic p16 staining.

p16 is a commonly used immunostain. It can be considered a surrogate marker for HPV infection. p16, like most other "p" stains, is a nuclear stain.

Pattern

  • Nuclear stain +/- cytoplasmic staining.

Use

Head and neck squamous cell carcinoma

p16 testing is useful in:

  1. Lymph node metastases with an unknown primary - positivity suggests an oropharyngeal primary.
  2. Oropharyngeal carcinomas.

Note:

  • Like elsewhere, i.e. other anatomical sites, p16 is an imperfect surrogate marker for the presence of HPV.[1]
  • Non-oropharyngeal sites (oral cavity, larynx, and hypopharynx) are not well-studied; however, it is known that p16 positivity is much less common in there.[1]

Images

Positive

Benign

  • p16 endometrial tubal metaplasia.[4]

Focal staining

Negative
