摘要
BACKGROUND. The term Marjolin ulcer is now synonymous with malignant transformation of chronic ulcers, sinus tracts, and burn scars. OBJECTIVE. To illustrate the importance of incisional or excisional biopsies in cases of suspected burn scar carcinoma. METHODS. Case report and review of the literature. RESULTS. Multiple punch biopsies were negative while a complete excision revealed the diagnosis of squamous cell carcinoma. CONCLUSION. Because of the focal Mature of malignant change in burn scars, incisional or excisional biopsy should be performed. (C) 1998 by the American Society for Dermatologic Surgery, Inc.
