Calvarium and Left Cerebral Parenchyma Involvement Arising from Squamous Cell Carcinoma in a Chronic Scalp Wound

摘要

Squamous cell carcinomas (SCCs) of the scalp constitute a significant medical condition with relatively uncommon invasive growth and metastasis. 1However, SCCs originating from Marjolin’s ulcer (MU) may have an altogether different course. Indeed, SCCs secondary to MU, by comparison with typical primary SCCs, not only have a considerable tendency to metastasize and invade to the calvarium and brain but also are associated with a significantly poor prognosis. 2
