The present study analyzed the occurrence of exophytic verrucous hyperplasia (EVH) in the background of oral submucous fibrosis (OSF), which presents clinically as a solitary verrucopapillary lesion (VPL) mimicking malignancy. We also aimed to obtain additional information on VELscope appearance and histopathological features of EVH.
