    Area of Science:

    • Oncology
    • Oral Pathology
    • Dermatology

    Background:

    • Verrucous carcinoma is a distinct variant of squamous cell carcinoma.
    • While considered rare in Scandinavia, a notable cluster of 16 cases occurred in Southern Norway between 1975 and 1982.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To investigate the clinical and histological characteristics of verrucous carcinoma in a Norwegian cohort.
    • To identify demographic and etiological factors specific to this patient group.

    Main Methods:

    • Retrospective analysis of 16 diagnosed cases of verrucous carcinoma.
    • Review of clinical presentations and histological findings.
    • Correlation of patient demographics and habits with tumor characteristics.

    Main Results:

    Related Experiment Videos

    • The most frequent site of occurrence was the mandibular alveolar ridge.
    • The average patient age was 71 years.
    • A female predominance was observed, and tobacco use was notably infrequent.

    Conclusions:

    • Verrucous carcinoma in this Norwegian cohort exhibited unique epidemiological features, including female predominance and a predilection for the mandibular alveolar ridge.
    • Ill-fitting dentures were a common patient complaint.
    • Surgical excision is recommended as the primary treatment modality.
