Abstract
|
|
|
Both spindle cell variant of squamous cell carcinoma and atypical fibroxanthoma are
most commonly presented as a solitary, often ulcerated nodule, occurring on
sun-exposed skin of the elderly. These lesions also share the histologic features of
diffuse or indistinct fascicular arrangement of polygonal or plump spindle cells. Therefore
it is not easy to differentiate these two unless electron microscopy or
immunohistochemistry is done. A case of 73 year old woman with squamous cell
carcinoma of the skin resembling atypical fibroxanthoma is presented.
