Abstract:
Verrucous carcinoma of the oral cavity is a rare tumor representing 4.5-9.0% of oral squamous tumors. Involvement of the lip is less common within the oral cavity. It presents as a slowly enlarging, exophytic warty growth with extensive local invasion, though well-differentiated and rarely metastaticl. We herein repart a case of verrucous carcinoma on the lower lip in a 31-year-old man.
