The development of carcinoma within a burn scar is an uncommon sequelae. When it does occur, the diagnosis is often delayed and consequently outcome less favourable. We present two cases seen and review existing literature on the aetiology, diagnosis and treatment of this problem. Delay in presentation and treatment is often the norm rather than the exception in this part of the world. We recommend early closure of all burn wounds and frequent biopsies of chronic leg ulcers.
烧伤瘢痕内发生癌变是一种罕见的后遗症。当这种情况确实发生时，诊断往往会延迟，因此预后较差。我们介绍了所见到的两例病例，并回顾了关于这个问题的病因、诊断和治疗的现有文献。在世界的这个地区，就诊和治疗延迟往往是常态而非例外。我们建议早期闭合所有烧伤创面，并对慢性腿部溃疡进行频繁活检。
