Metachronous Keratinising Squamous Cell Carcinoma of Skin After Adenocarcinoma of Descending Colon
Journal Title: Journal of Medical Science And clinical Research - Year 2015, Vol 3, Issue 7
Abstract
Colorectal carcinoma is the most common malignancy of the GI tract, its development involving interplay between genetic and environmental influences. With advances in diagnostic techniques and treatment modalities, the number of patients identified with colorectal carcinoma who develop multiple primary malignancies during long-term follow up has been increasing. Metachronous appearance of keratinizing squamous cell carcinoma skin at an unusual location in the same patient is quite rare. This occurrence of two different unrelated carcinomas at 14 months interval is a rare presentation.
