Herein, we report a case of a patient with an abnormal skin lesion that remained unchecked by medical professionals for approximately 20 years. Upon physical examination in the emergency department for a fractured hip, an infiltrative mass was incidentally discovered. The neoplasm was noted to have progressed from an eraser-sized mass to a 3.5-cm invasive lesion. Initial surgical intervention was believed to have been successful in removal, as margins were clear with the exception of 1 indeterminate segment. However, subsequent 1-year follow-up revealed recurrence of the disease with bilateral axillary node and deep muscle involvement. This prompted a more extensive surgical approach complemented with radiation therapy. The patient had remained disease-free for a year.
在此,我们报告一例患者,其皮肤病变异常,医学专业人员约20年未对其进行检查。因髋部骨折在急诊科进行体格检查时,偶然发现一个浸润性肿块。该肿瘤已从橡皮擦大小的肿块发展为一个3.5厘米的浸润性病变。最初的手术干预被认为成功切除,除1个不确定节段外切缘清晰。然而,随后的1年随访显示疾病复发,双侧腋窝淋巴结和深部肌肉受累。这促使采取更广泛的手术方法并辅以放射治疗。该患者已无病生存1年。
