Abstract
Oral Verrucous Hyperplasia is considered as an initialtype of verrucous carcinoma, representing a plausible malignant transformationof the oral mucous membrane. Studies have documented that verrucous hyperplasia transforms into verrucous carcinoma quite consistently and hence both theselesions should be managed identically. The present article reports the case of a 62-year-old male patient whoseprimary complaintwas that of a non-scrapableexophytic warty white outgrowth on edentulous alveolar ridge in the right upper posterior tooth region of the jaw. The growth was provisionally diagnosed as Squamous papilloma. Excision of the exophyticlesion was doneand the tissue biopsy sent for histopathological examination. Histopathologic examination suggested that the lesion was Oral Verrucous hyperplasia. 3 month follow-up of the patient revealed no signs of recurrence.
