Acantholytic squamous cell carcinoma arising in a nevus sebaceous: A case report
Abstract
Although nevus sebaceous (NS) is known to develop various types of secondary neoplasms, it rarely causes carcinoma and only fifteen cases of secondary squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) have been reported. We report a rare variant of SCC (acantholytic type) arising in nevus sebaceus.
Key words:
Nevus sebaceous, squamous cell carcinoma, tumors
