Abstract
Verrucous carcinoma is usually considered a low-grade variant of squamous cell carcinoma. Our case is a 56-year-old woman presented to our department of maxillofacial surgery of Ibn Sina hospital in Rabat with a budding lesion of the upper lip evolving 2 years ago. The diagnosis retained was that of well-differentiated squamous cell carcinoma of the verrucous type with infiltration of the chorion. The therapeutic decision was to perform a surgical excision with a safety margin of 1 cm followed by suturing of the defect and commissuroplasty. Its diagnosis is based on clinical and histological features. The treatment is not well codified. Surgery remains the treatment of choice.
