Verrucous hyperplasia, verrucous keratosis, and VC may not be distinguished clinically or may coexist. Though it appears remarkably harmless, the histopathological diagnosis of VC should be accompanied with careful identification of tumors with a greater chance to become frank cancers. Here, we report two cases of OVC, referring all the diagnostic intricacy occurring in the clinicopathological examination along with a review of the scientific literature.
