'''Squamous papilloma''', also '''squamous cell papilloma''', is a benign squamous lesion, typically of the [[Head and neck pathology|head and neck]]. | |||
''Laryngeal papilloma'' redirects here. The caruncle lesion is dealt with in ''[[papilloma of the caruncle]]''. The lesion in the [[esophagus]] is dealt with in ''[[squamous papilloma of the esophagus]]''. | |||

*Branching papillae. | |||
**Papilla = nipple-like projection with a fibrovascular core. | |||
*Basal cell hyperplasia. | |||
*Koilocytes. | |||

===Micro=== | |||
The sections show fibrovascular cores covered by stratified squamous epithelium with basal cell hyperplasia and edema. Scattered lymphocytes are present in the epithelium. No mitotic activity is appreciated. There is no significant nuclear atypia. | |||
Dyskeratotic cells are seen focally. Parakeratosis is present. Koilocytes are not apparent. | |||
====Low-grade dysplasia==== | |||
The sections show fibrovascular cores covered by stratified squamous epithelium. Scattered lymphocytes are present in the epithelium. Rare mitotic activity is appreciated in the lower third of the epithelium. Mild nuclear atypia (hyperchromasia and mild nuclear enlargement in the lower third of the epithelium) is present. | |||
Dyskeratotic cells are seen focally. Parakeratosis is present. Koilocytes are seen focally. | |||
