Penile verrucous carcinoma is known for its favorable biologic behavior and lack of metastatic potential. For preservation of function, treatment has been focused on partial penectomy. Despite partial penectomy for preservation of minimal functional and aesthetic aspects, patients have experienced psychosexual problems. A 73-year-old man had a cauliflower-like verrucous carcinoma on the penile ...

A malignant transformation is known to occur in many nevi such as a sebaceous nevus or a basal cell nevus, but a verrucous epidermal nevus has only rarely been associated with neoplastic changes. Keratoacanthoma, multifocal papillary apocrine adenoma, multiple malignant eccrine poroma, basal cell carcinoma and cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma (CSCC) have all been reported to develop from a ver...

Verrucous hyperplasia (VH) is a rare and potentially malignant exophytic oral mucosal lesion with verrucous or papillary surface. VH has tendency to transform into its counterpart, carcinoma, which clinically indistinguishable, yet histologically variable. The most common site of predilection the buccal mucosa more prevalent in patients habits areca nut chewing smoking. A biopsy surrounding nor...

Verrucous epidermal nevi are hamartomatous lesions of the epidermis that, unlike other epidermal nevi (such as sebaceous nevus or nevus comedonicus), are rarely associated with malignant neoplasms. The majority of squamous cell carcinoma develop in linear or multiple epidermal nevus and rarely in solitary epidermal nevus. In general, the prognosis is favorable. We report a case of well-differen...

Verrucous carcinoma is a form of squamous cell carcinoma which was first described as a distinct clinical and pathological entz'ty by Ackerman iri 1948. This study is the [irst report of 44 cases in Malaysians. Verrucous Carcinoma (VC) formed 1.8 percent of all oral squamous cell carcinoma cases. There was a predominance ofmales (M:F = 1.4:1). The peak age incidence was between 51 70 years (66 ...

Verrucous carcinoma is a locally invasive and nonmetastasizing variant of squamous cell carcinoma that is characterized by distinct clinical and histologic features. It develops most frequently on the mucous membranes of the oral cavity and larynx. The development of this tumor in the ear is particularly rare. We report a 45-year-old woman who presented with an enlarging malodorous mass on her ...

F ifty-year-old male smoker presented with a slowgrowing raised lesion on the mucosal surface of his upper lip (Fig. 1). He underwent an excisional biopsy and pathology confirmed verrucous hyperplasia without evidence of malignancy as shown in Fig. 2. Patient made an uneventful recovery. The most common site of presentation involves the buccal mucosa (48%) followed by the tongue (20%), palate (...

Actas Dermosifiliogr. 2009;100:151-62 160 asymptomatic tumor of 2 cm in diameter in the region of the left cheek that had grown progressively over the last 6 months (Figure 1). Two biopsies were taken with inconclusive results, and the tumor was finally removed. In the histological studies of the surgically removed tissue, findings characteristic of verrucous carcinoma were reported (Figure 2)....
