Abstract

Cutaneous reactions to tattoos are well reported and include allergic reactions, infections, and foreign body granuloma or may be a presenting sign of sarcoidosis. There have been very few reported cases of squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) arising in tattoo-treated skin. We report a case of SCC arising within a red-ink tattoo and discuss the potential the role of chronic low-grade inflammation in pathogenesis. This should serve to raise awareness of potential tattoo-related serious adverse effects.

摘要

纹身引起的皮肤反应已有充分报道，包括过敏反应、感染、异物肉芽肿，或可能是结节病的首发症状。纹身皮肤发生鳞状细胞癌（SCC）的报道病例极少。我们报告一例红色墨水纹身内发生SCC的病例，并讨论慢性低度炎症在发病机制中的潜在作用。这应有助于提高对纹身相关潜在严重不良反应的认识。
