Abstract

Squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) is the second most common form of skin cancer and frequently arises in the sun-exposed skin of middle-aged and elderly individuals. We retrospectively reviewed 443 patients managed for SCC (cutaneous and non-cutaneous) in our hospital from January 1979 to December 2002. The age distribution showed peak incidence between fourth and sixth decades of life. The duration of symptoms ranged from 6 months to 552 months (standard deviation [SD] = 54.29), while the head and neck region was the most common site of cutaneous SCC. SCC is not rare in our environment. Patients with skin lesions are advised to present early to their physician for early diagnosis and appropriate treatment.

摘要

鳞状细胞癌（SCC）是第二常见的皮肤癌形式，常发生于中老年个体暴露于阳光下的皮肤。我们回顾性分析了1979年1月至2002年12月在我院接受治疗的443例SCC（皮肤和非皮肤）患者。年龄分布显示发病高峰在40至60岁之间。症状持续时间为6个月至552个月（标准差[SD]=54.29），而头颈部是皮肤SCC最常见的部位。在我们的环境中，SCC并不罕见。建议有皮肤病变的患者尽早就医以进行早期诊断和适当治疗。
