Lymph node metastasis from cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma is uncommon. The popliteal fossa is rarely involved with metastasis. Popliteal lymph node dissection is uncommonly performed and not frequently discussed in the literature. We present a case of squamous cell carcinoma of the heel with popliteal and inguinal metastasis. This is followed by a description of the relevant anatomy of the popliteal fossa and the technique of popliteal lymphadenectomy.
皮肤鳞状细胞癌的淋巴结转移并不常见。腘窝很少发生转移。腘窝淋巴结清扫术不常施行,在文献中也很少讨论。我们报告一例足跟部鳞状细胞癌合并腘窝和腹股沟转移。随后描述了腘窝的相关解剖结构和腘窝淋巴结清扫术的技术。
