The article shows current epidemiological situation and describes the structure of the virus and modes of transmission. It also explains the role of HPV infection in cancer with particular emphasis on oropharynx and head and neck cancer. Summarizing, HPV infection plays an importa nt role in carcinogenesis of the oropharynx tumors. The presence of viral genetic material in the tumor may influence prognosis and treatment method choices.
