Abstract
White sponge nevus (WSN) is a hereditary mucosal defect that primarily affects the oral mucosa, presenting with asymptomatic velvety, corrugated hyperkeratotic white plaques that do not disappear on stretching the mucosa. In this case report, we present a non-familial case of a WSN occurring in the tongue in a middle-aged female, which was misdiagnosed as verrucous leukoplakia.
