    Background: The American Medical Association researched epithelial hyperplasia of Heck (HEM), in people between the ages of 14-69 who showed infection of the oral cavity by the papovavirus. The prevalence was 7% for oral VPH. Objective: Determine the characteristics of oral lesions for VPH in patients who resorted to the dermatology department of HVCM, Cuenca 2013. Method: This is a descriptive study, which was realized from February through August 2013. The universe is made up of all the people who consulted dermatology for oral lesions caused by the papovavirus. The data was collected on a validated questionnaire. The information was processed on Excel. Results: Fifty-nine people with oral lesions were studied: 56% were single; and 56% were women. The group between the ages of 11-20 represents 27% of the illness and 22% was between the ages of 21-30. The flat shaped lesions represent 92%. Multiple lesions were 69%. 63% were of a firm consistency. 49% were pink colored. The pedicle type represents 51%. The HEM represents 95% of the cases. 73% of the cases were treated with trichloroacetic acid. Complications due to treatment were pain and reappearance, 3.38%. Conclusions: Oral warts caused by VPH are not common in our surroundings, 59 cases were attended, for which almost entirely were due to HEM, concentrating majorly between the ages of 11-20 and the female gender. Characteristically the lesions were flat, multiple, of a firm consistency, sessile, on tongue, pink and melanin colored. The trichloroacetic acid was utilized mostly.
