Among 52 patients with squamous cell carcinoma of the skin of the pinna seen consecutively between 1952 and 1973, a single course of treatment failed to control the disease in 10 (19%). This failure rate is higher than that usually reported for squamous cell carcinomas of the skin in general (2 to 6%), and appears to be in conflict with the belief that squamous cell carcinomas of the skin of the pinna rarely metastasize. It appears that other factors than neglect are responsible for this discrepancy. In this series it was not possible to judge the relative efficacy of one mode of treatment over another.
在1952年至1973年间连续收治的52例耳廓皮肤鳞状细胞癌患者中，单一疗程治疗未能控制病情的有10例（19%）。这一失败率高于一般报道的皮肤鳞状细胞癌的失败率（2%至6%），似乎与耳廓皮肤鳞状细胞癌很少发生转移的观点相矛盾。看来造成这种差异的原因不是疏忽，而是其他因素。在这个系列中，无法判断一种治疗方式相对于另一种治疗方式的相对疗效。
