A 48-year old patient with known xeroderma pigmentosum was referred to our skin cancer unit because of the recent development of histopathologically verified squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) lymph node metastasis on her left supraclavicular region. A whole body PET-CT showed additional abdominal and inguinal lymph node metastases. Her medical history included, in addition to several minimal surgeries of early forms of keratinocyte skin cancer, a poorly differentiated cutaneous SCC (cSCC) with invasion into the lymphatic vessels on her left tight, which was treated with wide surgical excision 5 years before.

Abstract
A 48-year old patient with known xeroderma pigmentosum was referred to our skin cancer unit because of the recent development of histopathologically verified squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) lymph node metastasis on her left supraclavicular region. A whole body PET-CT showed additional abdominal and inguinal lymph node metastases. Her medical history included, in addition to several minimal surgeries of early forms of keratinocyte skin cancer, a poorly differentiated cutaneous SCC (cSCC) with invasion into the lymphatic vessels on her left tight, which was treated with wide surgical excision 5 years before.| File | Dimensione | Formato | |
