Cutaneous Squamous Cell Carcinoma At An Unusual Site.

Abstract

Cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) is the second most common form of skin malignancy. It is usually seen on the sun exposed areas of the skin, at the site of chronic irritation and in immunosuppressed individuals. A SCC developing on the waist line is quite uncommon. However awareness of such a lesion developing is important especially in those practicing in rural areas. A case of SCC developing on the waist line is reported along with a brief review of literature.
