Verrucous xanthoma is a rare benign muco-cutaneous lesion, whereas oral lichen planus is a chronic inflammatory disease relatively common in the clinical setting. Verrucous xanthoma and oral lichen planus can reportedly coexist according to foreign literature. Owing to the low incidence of verrucous xanthoma and the rarity of co-occurrence of these two diseases, the mechanism underlying the co-occurrence of the two diseases remains inconclusive. In this work, a case of oral verrucous xanthoma complicated with oral lichen planus was reported. Related literature was reviewed to discuss the clinical classification, pathological classification, and possible pathogenesis of the two diseases.

Article Synopsis
- Oral verruciform xanthoma (OVX) is a rare, benign oral lesion that can resemble other common growths and has only a few documented cases.
- It typically appears in areas like the masticatory mucosa, with its exact cause still uncertain, but it's thought to arise from monocyte/macrophage lineage.
- In a reported case, a 20-year-old male had a keratotic growth on his lower lip that was diagnosed as OVX through histopathology and immunohistochemistry; it was successfully surgically excised with no recurrence afterward.

Article Synopsis
- Verruciform xanthoma is a rare reactive lesion that typically appears in the skin but can also occur in the oral cavity, where it may be mistaken for leukoplakia.
- The text describes two cases of 30-year-old individuals with white plaques on the tongue and floor of the mouth, which were confirmed to be oral verruciform xanthomas through histopathological analysis.
- It's important for dental professionals to consider verruciform xanthoma in their differential diagnosis for potential oral cancer since it can appear in high-risk areas, with histopathological analysis being the most reliable method for diagnosis.
Verruciform Xanthoma: Clinical and Morphologic Spectrum Across Oral, Genital, and Cutaneous Sites.

Background: Verruciform xanthoma (VX) is an uncommon, benign epithelial lesion of the oral mucosa. While this entity can also present extraorally, including on the skin and in anogenital areas, the variation in its histologic features in extraoral sites is not yet well defined. Differences in the demographics and morphologic features of oral versus extraoral VX were assessed to help facilitate the accurate diagnosis and management of this lesion.

A 59-year-old man presented with a growing tumor on the glans penis, which we excised. Histologically, there was an acanthotic epidermis under which the papillary dermis was filled with foamy macrophages, best seen in a CD 68 stain. Verruciform xanthoma was diagnosed.
