Verrucous carcinoma, a rare skin cancer, can be mistaken for warts. Surgical removal is recommended as radiation therapy may lead to cancerous transformation.

Area of Science:

  • Dermatology
  • Oncology
  • Pathology

Background:

  • Verrucous carcinoma is a rare, low-grade squamous cell carcinoma.
  • It most commonly affects mucosal surfaces but can occur on the skin.
  • Cutaneous verrucous carcinoma is often misdiagnosed as verruca vulgaris.

Observation:

  • Presents three cases of cutaneous verrucous carcinoma.
  • Details include medical history and follow-up data for each case.
  • Highlights the slow-growing and locally aggressive nature of the tumor.

Findings:

  • Surgery is the primary treatment of choice for cutaneous verrucous carcinoma.
  • Radiation therapy carries a risk of anaplastic transformation in these lesions.
  • Accurate diagnosis is crucial to avoid inappropriate treatment.

Implications:

  • Emphasizes the importance of differentiating verrucous carcinoma from benign lesions.
  • Underscores the need for surgical intervention over potentially harmful radiation.
  • Contributes to understanding the clinical behavior and management of this rare skin cancer.
