Squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) of the colon without known primary source is a rare finding that needs aggressive management. We report two cases of SCC of the colon without any clear extra-colonic source despite extensive workup. In our experience, the clinical course and prognosis are largely dependent on the presence of metastatic disease at diagnosis. The main treatment is surgery, with chemotherapy having less defined role.
结肠鳞状细胞癌(SCC)且无已知原发灶是一种罕见情况,需要积极处理。我们报告两例结肠SCC,尽管进行了广泛检查,但仍未发现明确的结肠外原发灶。根据我们的经验,临床病程和预后很大程度上取决于诊断时是否存在转移性疾病。主要治疗方法是手术,化疗的作用尚不明确。
