Oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) is the most common epithelial malignant neoplasm affecting the oral cavity; early detection is an important criterion for achieving high cure rate. The control of oral squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) is difficult even after treatment because it has a tendency to multiple primary carcinomas. The purpose of this report is to describe the clinicopathological characteristics of a SCC of lateral border of the tongue in a 38 year old male patient and to determine whether any associated risk factors are present.
