“…This is partly due to underreporting of minor cases treated in primary care but also due to a high frequency of recurrence when only the primary tumour is recorded -an estimated 30% of cSCC cases go unrecorded (CRUK 2014). In the US approximately 700,000 new cases of cSCC are diagnosed annually but as cSCC has been excluded from national cancer registries there is no precise data concerning incidence, metastases and related mortality (Karia, Han et al 2013). …”

“…4,56 The mortality rate for patients diagnosed with a primary skin SCC metastasis is estimated to be approximately 75%. 53,57,84 Similar to BCC, loco-regional therapies, including topical treatments (e.g., 5-FU [fluorouracil]), electrodessication and curettage, and surgery are highly effective in the majority of patients with localized SCC. However, systemic therapy may be required for metastatic SCC, with platinum-based chemotherapeutics and the EGFR (epidermal growth factor receptor) inhibitor cetuximab showing positive results in isolated case reports and a few small case series.…”
