Abstract
Verrucous carcinoma (VC) otherwise known Ackerman’s tumor is a distinct variety of epidermoid carcinoma with characteristic clinical presentation, behavior and histological features. It usually presents as a hyperplastic epithelium, abundant keratin superficially with a church-spire keratosis and also presenting parakeratin plugging which is characteristic of this VC. Oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) is seen in one-third of the oral sub mucous fibrosis (OSMF) patients. Whereas the development of verrucous carcinoma is rare. We are presenting a rare report of 2 cases of verrucous carcinoma occurring in conjunction with OSMF. These patients presented to the OP with a chief complaint of restricted mouth opening and a growth which on biopsy turned out to be a Verrucous carcinoma in conjunction with OSMF. List of abbreviations: Oral verrucous carcinoma (VC), Oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC), Oral submucous fibrosis (OSMF), Proliferative verrucous leukoplakia (PVL), Verrucous hyperplasia (VH).
