Abstract
Oral Squamous cell carcinoma is the most common malignant neoplasm affecting oral cavity, generally seen in individuals
over 50 years of age and rarely before 40 years of age. As OSCC is rare in younger group, it may be often misdiagnosed
resulting in inappropriate treatment leading to poor survival rates. Here we report a case of OSCC of left lateral border of
the tongue in a 38 year old male patient and also review its literature.
