Squamous cell carcinoma of the tongue is uncommon among children and teenagers. Most commonly, squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck presents during the fifth and sixth decades of life in patients with a long history of tobacco and alcohol use. The rarity of this lesion in young patients implies that clinicians might not include it in the differential diagnoses. In general, carcinoma of the oral cavity in young people is reported to be particularly aggressive and carry a poor prognosis. A case of carcinoma of the tongue in a 13-year-old boy is presented in this report.
