Abstract

A clinical case of a 9-year-old patient who seeks care for elevated lesions of the oral mucosa is presented. A disease caused by HPV was diagnosed. This case might potentially involve child abuse due to modes of disease transmission. On clinical examination, an ulcerated papillary lesion of approximately 0.5 cm was observed in the right lip corner. Multiple raised warty lesions were seen on both cheeks and the lower labial mucosa. We conclude about the importance of a good clinical history and a complete oral examination to implement the right treatment and follow-up of pathologies.
