Intro
1-10 % of OSCC
In spit tobacco users, a regular squamous cell carcinoma is 25 times more likely to develop than this low-grade variant.

Site
Mandibular vestibule
Buccal mucosa
Hard palate
Often corresponds to the to the site of chronic tobacco placement
Late diagnosis ?!!
Histo.
deceptively benign microscopic appearance
wide and elongated rete ridges that appear to push” into the under lying connective tissue
abundant keratin (usually parakeratin) production
a papillary or verruciform surface
no significant degree of cellular atypia
No direct invasion !!!
an intense infiltrate of chronic inflammatory cells in the subjacent connective tissue.
an adequate incisional biopsy.
TX and prognosis
Surgical resection
Radiation ?!
Chemotherapy
