Abstract. A case of verrucous carcinoma with a focus of cytologically malignant squamous‐cell carcinoma is presented. This usually occurs following radiation therapy of the verrucous carcinoma, but may rarely occur de novo, as in this case. The potential usefulness of fine‐needle aspiration in detecting focal anaplasia in verrucous carcinoma is discussed. This technique may be especially useful if the lesion is to be destroyed cryosurgically.
