ABSTRACT
Squamous cell carcinoma is a malignant tumor arising from the epidermis or its appendages, Squamous cell carcinoma of extremity comprises approximately 1 to 2 percent of all squamous celi carcinoma and of these 0.2 to 1.7 percents are secondary to chronic osteomyelitis and 2 percents are secondary to the burn scar. We experienced 4 cases of squamous cell carcinoma invading bone directly, of these 2 cases are secondary to chronic osteomyelitis and 2 cases are secondary to the burn scar. With prompt and aggressive surgical treatment the prognosis is good. Routine regional lymphadenectomy is unnecessary because in most instances enlarged nodes are inflammatory and subside after amputation.
