ABSTRACT
Verrucous carcinoma is a distinct morphologic variant of well differentiated squamous cell carcinoma that is most often seen in the oral cavity & larynx but extremely rare in the nasal cavity. This neoplasm has been characterized as a slow growing lesion in elderly smokers with poor oral hygiene. It is histologically and locally invasive but metastasis is rare. We report a case of verrucous carcinoma found in the hard palate & the nasal floor and treated by surgical excision with a review of the literature.
