Abstract

Human papillomavirus (HPV) infection that causes squamous papilloma is common in the oral cavity of adults but not in children. Although benign, the slow progressive growth is a concern to clinicians and parents as the lesion may clinically appear as an exophytic verrucous carcinoma or squamous carcinoma. This case report describes a squamous papilloma arising on the tongue of a 12-year old child.
