Verrucous Squamous Cell Carcinoma of the Scalp: Rare but Exists
Journal Title: Journal of Clinical Medical Research - Year 2020, Vol 1, Issue 1
Abstract
Verrucous carcinoma is a rare, low-grade, well-differentiated squamous cell carcinoma most commonly seen on mucosa. It has been infrequently reported to occur on the skin, where it is a slow-growing and locally aggressive tumour. It is not uncommon for cutaneous verrucous carcinomas to be mistaken for the more frequent verruca vulgaris and treated accordingly. We report a case of a rare localization of this tumor in the sclap of a 57 year old patient.
