Practice Points
- Verrucous carcinoma is a slow-growing tumor that often presents in advanced clinical stages because it is poorly understood and underrecognized, especially in developing countries.
- Good clinicopathological correlation is required in cases of verrucous carcinoma to avoid misdiagnosis and provide appropriate treatment.
- Case-specific management should be considered, as presentation of verrucous carcinoma varies.
- Radiography should be considered to assess for lymph node involvement.
