Abstract

Squamous cell carcinoma of the skin arises mostly in the head and neck regions, less frequently in the rest of the body, and rarely in the palms and soles. We report a case of a 6S-year-old man who had had time-sequential development of multiple squamous cell carcinomas on his palms and soles for the past 12 years. These lesions were, in order of time, ulcerative nodules, ulcerative hyperkeratotic papules, hyperkeratotic plaques, maceratied plaques, dark discolored patchs, and hyperkeratotic papules. They were treated by total excision and cryotherpy apart from the last squatnous cell carcinoma in 1994.
