Metastatic cutaneous SCC is uncommon but potentially lethal. Surgery and adjuvant radiotherapy remain the best practice and provide the best chance of achieving locoregional control.

Patients with metastatic cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma of the scalp have a poor prognosis with most dying from regional relapse. Those treated with surgery and adjuvant radiotherapy had a better outcome.

Supracricoid partial laryngectomy is an oncologically sound alternative to TL as salvage for radiation failure. The operative morbidity and potential for mortality is high in this setting.
