Oral inverted ductal papillomas are rare benign tumours of minor salivary glands. A case that appeared in a middle-aged HIV+ woman simultaneous to two condyloma acuminata on the lips is described. The presence of human papilloma virus (HPV) 11 DNA was demonstrated in all the samples using polymerase chain reaction. HPV could play an important role in the aetiology and pathogenesis of these lesions in this patient.
