Ann Burns Fire Disasters. 2007 Sep 30;20(3):159-60.
An 18-yr-old female patient presented to our unit two years after she had sustained a flame burn, with a three-month history of a right thigh scar ulcer. The ulcer had rapidly progressed with involvement of the sciatic nerve and infiltration of the right femur. Biopsy of the ulcer revealed squamous cell carcinoma. The patient however died shortly after admission from an overwhelming sepsis. The rarity of early onset of Marjolin's ulcer and the rapidity of fatality in this case constitute the reasons for presenting this report.
一名18岁女性患者在火焰烧伤两年后前来我院，右大腿瘢痕溃疡已有三个月病史。溃疡迅速进展，累及坐骨神经并侵犯右股骨。溃疡活检显示为鳞状细胞癌。然而，患者入院后不久因严重败血症死亡。本病例中Marjolin溃疡发病早且致死迅速的罕见情况是报告此病例的原因。
