Journal Title: IOSR Journal of Dental and Medical Sciences (IOSR-JDMS) - Year 2017, Vol 16, Issue 1

Abstract

Malignant oropharyngeal tumours are far more common as compared to benign tumours. Oropharyngeal squamous papilloma typically presents in adults. Squamous cell papillomas are result of infection with Human Papilloma Virus(HPV). Histopathological examination shows multiple papillary projections lined by stratified squamous epithelium and supported by delicate fibrovascular core. Here we present a case of squamous papilloma in posterior pharyngeal wall of Oropharynx in 3½ -year-old female child.
