- - A 22-year-old man presented with a non-healing sore on his foot, which worsened over time and was ultimately diagnosed as metastatic SCC that spread to his lungs and lymph nodes.
- - This case emphasizes the importance of considering cancer in persistent wounds, particularly in young patients, and highlights the need for early detection and comprehensive treatment strategies.
