Abstract
Squamous papilloma is the most common benign oral epithelial lesion, and it is well known to be associated with
human papilloma virus 6 and 11. Here, we report a case of squamous papilloma associated with human papilloma
viruses (HPV)‑32 in a 4‑year‑old boy who presented with a verrucous lesion on the lower lip. HPV‑32 is often associated
with a rare benign condition focal epithelial hyperplasia (FEH). A limited number of lesions and the absence of
characteristic histology ruled out FEH in our patient. To the best of our knowledge, the association of oral squamous
papilloma with HPV‑32 is hitherto unreported.
