Among thyroid gland tumors, papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC) stands out as the most prevalent. Degenerative changes, mainly in the form of nodular goiter, have been recorded, occasionally including areas of calcification and, more rarely, ossification; although the latter seldom progresses to calcinosis. Ectopic bone formation, known as osseous metaplasia, is a rare phenomenon in the thyroid gland, even more so when associated with extramedullary hematopoiesis (EMH), characterized by the presence of hematopoietic elements outside the bone marrow. We present the first documented instance in our country of a patient diagnosed with malignant thyroid nodule, specifically PTC, exhibiting areas of heterotopic ossification with EMH on histopathological examination of the surgical specimen. A possible relationship between heterotopic ossification, EMH, and PTC is suggested. Various growth factors such as bone morphogenetic proteins (BMPs), specific BMP subtypes, and associated receptors could play a crucial role in initiating and developing ectopic bone formation in the context of PTC.

Tumors were selected from an international series of 1010 patients with penile carcinomas. Mixed carcinomas were grouped, according to WHO recommendations, as follows: 1. Carcinomas with warty/basaloid features mixed with HPV-independent carcinomas and 2. HPV-independent subtypes mixed with each other. HPV detection and p16<sup>INK4a</sup> immunostaining were performed. For HPV detection, whole tissue section-PCR analyses were performed by SPF10-DEIA-LiPA25 (version 1). As expected, HPV was detected more frequently in HPV-associated mixed carcinomas than in HPV-independent mixed carcinomas. Carcinomas with basaloid or warty features mixed with other SCC subtypes showed an HPV positivity rate of 46% (33 of 72 tumors) compared with 7% found in tumors with nonwarty/basaloid morphology (2 of 29 tumors). Eleven high-risk HPV genotypes were identified and the most common was HPV16 (65%) usually associated with basaloid morphology. p16<sup>INK4a</sup> immunostaining was positive in 76% of HPV-positive tumors. As in nonmixed carcinomas, although in lower proportion, a variable array of HPV genotypes was detected in mixed carcinomas.

Thus, myxoid SFTs are unusual in the HN, with potential for misdiagnosis.
