ABSTRACT
Acantholytic squamous cell carcinoma (ASCC) is an atypical form of squamous cell carcinoma (SCC). Although it is well known that ASCC typically appears in sun-exposed regions of the face and neck, oral cavity cases are incredibly rare. In this case report, we present a rare case of a 50-year-old male who developed an ulcer on his right mandibular alveolus, diagnosed with ASCC post-biopsy. On histopathological analysis, acantholytic cells with a pseudo-glandular appearance were observed. Subsequently, the tumor was resected by modified radical neck dissection with a split-thickness graft. The patient responded well to surgery and had no complications post-surgery.
