Description:
Squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) is the second most common type of skin cancer. As ultraviolet exposure represents an important risk factor, SCC commonly occurs on the face, lips, scalp, hands, and heels. The foot is an unusual location to manifest SCC. In this report, we present a case of a 44-year-old woman with severe local recurrence of SCC in the right heel, four years after an initial excision of a primary, small lesion. For various reasons, the patient did not visit the clinic for follow-up assessment during this period. Considering the extent of the lesion and infection risk, the affected leg was amputated at one-third of the lower leg. This case report underlines the importance of educating patients about the risk of SCC and assisting them in attending follow-up visits. In addition, adequate attention should be given to foot lesions with suspicious appearance. Early detection would minimize systemic risks, including metastasis and infection, and maximize preserved function after surgical intervention.
