Ackerman's tumour (verrucous carcinoma) of the oral cavity: a clinico‐epidemiologic study of 426 cases

Abstract: Four hundred and twenty-six cases of verrucous carcinoma of the oral cavity were detected jointly by the per cent of 7988 primary malignant neoplasms of the oral cavity detected during the period. There were 276 men and 150 women with an average age of 67.5 years. The maximum incidence was noted in the sixth decade of life. The highest incidence was observed in the buccal mucosa, followed by tongue, alveolus, and lips. These patients had no associated malignancies but leukoplakia was observed consistently in a… Show more

“…Verrucous carcinoma is a rare variant of squamous cell carcinoma that presents in the head and neck with the most common sites being the oral cavity and larynx [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8]. It is so uncommon, in fact, that verrucous carcinoma composes only 5% of tumors at these sites [2,14].…”

“…Esta lesão, caracterizada por sua baixa agressividade e bom prognóstico, raramente evolui com metástases regionais, não sendo verificado relatos de disseminação tumoral a distância 1, 7,11,12,24,30,46,48,52,56,61,68,70,82,100 .…”

“…Clinicamente, apresenta-se com aspecto vegetante em couve-flor, superfície rugosa, sulcada e coloração branco-acinzentada 1, 7,11,46,52,56,61,68,70,82 Um diagnóstico seguro e confiável do carcinoma verrucoso requer uma biopsia adequada bem como, uma cuidadosa avaliação microscópica por parte do patologista 7,30,31,54,82 . Alguns estudos demonstraram que as alterações nas moléculas de adesão celular nos carcinomas espinocelulares 3,6,16,39,43,93,95,101 , principalmente aquelas associadas à Ecaderina 49,62,73,76,77,79,94,96 , são requisitos fundamentais para o processo de invasão e metástase, determinando um comportamento biológico mais agressivo e uma evolução clínica desfavorável para estes tumores.…”
