Marjolin's ulcers (MUs) represent a unique degenerative process that results in malignancy. Classically, sites of previous burns are associated with MU but, in fact, any non-healing wound has been found to be a potential source of degeneration. Malignancies that arise include typically cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma (SCC), but SCC at the site of a previous wound is a more aggressive, lethal variant. This report represents a cautionary case of the management of an open wound and highlights a previously undescribed etiology of an MU in the breast.
马乔林溃疡（MUs）是一种导致恶性肿瘤的独特退行性病变过程。传统上，既往烧伤部位与马乔林溃疡相关，但实际上，任何不愈合的伤口都被发现是潜在的退行性病变来源。所发生的恶性肿瘤通常包括皮肤鳞状细胞癌（SCC），但既往伤口部位的鳞状细胞癌是一种更具侵袭性、致死性更强的变体。本报告是一例开放性伤口处理的警示病例，并突出了乳房马乔林溃疡一种此前未被描述的病因。
