Description
Summary:Oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) is a more common malignant neoplasm in the oral cavity, being rare as simultaneous primary tumors. Based on this, we aimed to report a rare case of simultaneous OSCC. A 76-year-old female patient presented in intraoral examination 2 lesions, one localized in palate and the other localized in alveolar ridge, with history of evolution of 4 months. Both lesions had a tumoral aspect and corrugated and whitish surface. For lesion in palate was observed area of ulcerations. Incisional biopsy was performed for both lesions, and histopathologic analysis revealed a proliferation of atypical squamous cells in nests and sheets exhibiting atypical mitosis, moderate hyperchromatic nuclei, and nuclear pleomorphism. Final diagnosis was simultaneous differentiated moderate OSCC. Treatment indicated was surgery and radiotherapy, and after 12 months of follow-up, no sign of recurrence was observed.
