Squamous Papilloma: An Unusual Presentation as a Large Pedunculated Mass over Buccal Mucosa

Authors

Abstract

Oral squamous papilloma, a benign proliferation of stratified squamous epithelium commonly involves palate. It is cauliflower-like projection, seldom larger than 1.0 cm. We report a rare case of large 2.8x2.7x2.0 cm smooth pedunculated squamous papilloma involving buccal mucosa prolapsing outside oral cavity. The patient underwent surgical excision with complete resolution of symptoms. No such case report was found on searching the available literature.
