Case Study Squamous Cell Carcinoma

Squamous cell carcinoma is the second most common nonmelanoma skin cancer, and it may present in a variety of ways. Several common conditions, including some that are benign, may mimic squamous cell carcinoma. It is critical for clinicians to be knowledgeable of the presentation of squamous cell carcinoma and other conditions that may present similarly to prevent a delayed or missed diagnosis. This case will be helpful for providers in general dermatology practice as it describes a presentation of squamous cell carcinoma and differential diagnoses considered.
