Verrucous carcinoma (VC) is a distinctive clinico-pathological variant of well differentiated squamous cell carcinoma with low malignant potential. VC grows slowly, has a tendency of local invasion and seldom metastasizes. It occurs commonly in people who use snuff or smokeless form of tobacco. A case of verrucous carcinoma (VC) arising from the right lateral border of tongue in a 46 year-old female patient is hereby reported.
