Abstract:
In order to study Marjolin's ulcer, all the case histories of patients admitted over a 5-yr period to a Service of Plastic Surgery and Burn Patients in Morocco presenting a histopathologically confirmed burn scar cancer were included in a data file with information regarding the medical background of the five patients concerned, their treatment, and the evolution of the case.After this data presentation, the problems set by spinocellular epithelioma, which is a serious and rare affection, are considered.The degeneration of burn scars is a dramatic development, caused by negligence. Preventive treatment, with systematic exeresis of any suspicious lesion, is strongly recommended as it guarantees almost certain recovery.
