چکیده
Squamous cell carcinoma is the second most common cancer of the skin. This tumor arises predominantly in sun exposed actinically damaged areas. Implicated as predisposing factors, in addition to sunlight, these are industrial carcinogens, chronic ulcers, and ionizing radiation [1]. They are common cancer in immunocompromised and renal transplant patients [2]. Squamous cell carcinomas are known to be the most prevalent malignant tumor of the head and neck region [3]. They are also reported in many organs including cervix, lung, bladder, uterus, ovary, esophagus and teratomas [4;5;6,7].
