Cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) is a common skin cancer. This review details SCC

Area of Science:

Dermatology
Oncology
Pathology

Background:

Cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) is the second most common skin cancer.
Management of SCC has historically received less attention than other skin cancers.
Dermatologists play a key role in surgical care for cutaneous carcinoma.

Purpose of the Study:

To provide a comprehensive review of cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma (SCC).
To emphasize the importance of recognizing SCC's metastatic potential.
To guide dermatologists in managing high-risk SCC cases.

Main Methods:

Literature review focusing on etiology, pathogenesis, clinical presentation, histopathology, and treatment.
Emphasis on distinguishing SCC from basal cell carcinoma regarding metastatic potential.

Related Experiment Videos

Focus on appropriate care and management strategies for high-risk SCC.

Main Results:

SCC, unlike basal cell carcinoma, possesses significant metastatic potential.
Comprehensive knowledge of SCC management is crucial for dermatologists.
Risk stratification and tailored management are essential for high-risk SCC.

Conclusions:

Dermatologists require thorough knowledge of SCC management.
Recognizing and managing high-risk SCC is critical due to its metastatic potential.
This review provides essential information for optimal SCC patient care.
