Squamous cell carcinoma of the skin in black patients with discoid lupus erythematosus.

W R Caruso, M L Stewart, V K Nanda, F P Quismorio.   

Abstract

Skin cancer is relatively uncommon among black individuals. Squamous cell carcinoma occurred in a scar of chronic discoid lupus erythematosus in a black patient. A review of 7 previously reported cases of squamous cell carcinoma in blacks with chronic discoid lupus erythematosus indicates a tendency of the cancer to metastasize. Sun exposure of the hypopigmented lesions of chronic discoid lupus and possibly other factors predispose to cancer of the skin. Poorly healing skin lesions in chronic discoid lupus should arouse suspicion of malignant change.
