Abstract
The development of a squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) in a linear epidermal naevus is a rare event previously reported in long-standing and often extensive lesions of middle-aged to elderly patients. To the best of our knowledge, this case appears to be only the second report of an SCC arising in a linear epidermal naevus in a young patient and the first report of two SCCs developing in a small epidermal naevus, over a short time, in a young patient with no other risk factors.Entities:
