Papillary squamous cell carcinoma of the palatine tonsil: a rare cancer of the head and neck

Abstract: Le neoplasie squamose papillari delle vie aeree digestive superiori sono una rara variante del carcinoma a cellule squamose. Sono caratterizzate da una crescita esofitica papillare e hanno una prognosi generalmente favorevole. Il tumore è già stato descritto a livello delle vie aeree digestive superiori. In tale contesto, le localizzazioni più frequenti sono la laringe e l’ipofaringe, mentre raramente sono interessati la cavità orale e l’ipofaringe. Gli studi limitati unitamente all’esiguo numero di casi pubbl… Show more

“…Previously, the World Health Organization (WHO) guidelines classified PSCC as SCC, but PSCC is now classified as a unique malignant tumor, distinct from verrucous cancer and other exogenous SCCs. 6 Owing to the limited number of cases in the literature, the biological behavior of PSCC is currently unclear, although it is considered a low-grade malignancy. 7 Surgical resection is still the first recommendation for localized noninvasive SCC.…”

“…One of the rare variants of OSCC is oral papillary squamous cell carcinoma (OPSCC), which was reported to have a favourable prognosis [ 5 ]. It has a correlation with the Human Papilloma Virus (HPV), and clinically, it appears as an oral lesion with papillary architecture [ 6 ]. It differs from conventional OSCC in that OPSCC has limited invasion, a lower rate of metastasis, and a better survival rate [ 6 ].…”
