Abstract
Verrucous carcinoma (VC) a low-grade variant of squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) is the rarest of all oral
cancers. A hybrid VC is a non-verrucous SCC that arises synchronously with the VC.The differential diagnosis of VC
remains difficult and requires clinical and pathologic data confrontation.As the malignant behaviour of hybrid VC is
confined to the non-VC component, careful examination of these tumors is needed .here we report a case of 44 year old
female with hybrid verrucous carcinoma.Clinical and histological features and treatment are discussed with the review of
literature.
