Lymphoedema is a chronic debilitating condition characterised by diffuse swelling caused by lymphatic obstruction. The secondary form of lymphoedema is more common than the primary form. Untreated filariasis remains an important cause of lymphoedema in developing countries. The most common complication of chronic lymphoedema is cellulitis. It is also a risk factor for the development of neoplasms such as lymphangiosarcoma, squamous cell carcinoma, melanoma, lymphoma and malignant fibrous histiocytoma. We report a case of a woman in her 60s who developed squamous cell carcinoma in the background of chronic lymphoedema.
淋巴水肿是一种慢性衰弱性疾病，其特征为淋巴阻塞引起的弥漫性肿胀。继发性淋巴水肿比原发性淋巴水肿更为常见。未经治疗的丝虫病仍然是发展中国家淋巴水肿的一个重要原因。慢性淋巴水肿的最常见并发症是蜂窝织炎。它也是淋巴血管肉瘤、鳞状细胞癌、黑色素瘤、淋巴瘤和恶性纤维组织细胞瘤等肿瘤发展的一个危险因素。我们报告了一例 60 多岁的妇女，她在慢性淋巴水肿的背景下患上了鳞状细胞癌。
