Abstract

Clear cell SCC is a rare variant of SCC initially reported by Kuo in 1980. A lot of cases of clear cell SCC show intracytoplasmic glycogen deposition and thus need to be distinguished from trichilemmal carcinoma. Although some authors studied the histological features of clear cell SCC, with its limited case reports and the variety of its content, the histopathologic findings of clear cell SCC are still imperfectly known. Herein, we report a case of clear cell SCC with review of literatures for histopathologic findings of clear cell SCC.
