Abstract

Authors present clinical-histological characteristics of squamous cell carcinomas of the skin in patients treated at the Clinic of Infectious and Dermato-Venereology Diseases in Novi Sad in the period from 1989 to 1995. The examined group comprised 26 cases (2.32%) with histologically verified squamous cell carcinomas of the skin out of 1119 nonmelanomatous epithelial skin tumors, clinically examined by dermatologists and treated by x-ray surface therapy. All patients with SCC were clinically examined by dermatologists at the Clinic of Dermatology and Venereology in Novi Sad, while histological examinations were performed by pathologists of the department of Pathology and Histology of the Faculty of Medicine in Novi Sad. Tumor biopsy specimens were obtained by shave biopsy, saucer biopsy and punch biopsy. All the biopsy specimens wee histologically examined and verified with standard methods with haematoxyllineosin-staining. In the group of examined patients most were with SCC--that is exophytic tumor of the skin in 16 cases (61.54%). Histological examination revealed: squamous cell carcinoma of the skin in 9 cases (56.25%), keratotic squamous cell carcinoma in 5 cases (31.25%) and invasive squamous cell carcinoma in 2 cases (1...Continue Reading
