Abstract
|
|
|
|
Squamous cell carcinoma on the lip is a common oral malignancy, and it is responsible for ＞30% of all oral squamous cell carcinomas. Numerous factors have been implicated in the development of squamous cell carcinoma on the lip, but the most frequently identified risk factors include chronic exposure to ultraviolet radiation. Squamous cell carcinoma on the lip is more prevalent in elderly men, with a male-to-female ratio of 5：1. We report an interesting case of squamous cell carcinoma mimicking herpes simplex on the lip in a 35-year-old woman who presented with erythematous grouped vesicles on the upper lip.
