Abstract
Squamous cell carcinomas are known to arise in certain chronic, scarri ng dermatoses and also to be associated with exposure to ultraviolet r adiation. We now report a case arising in a plaque of lupus vulgaris, the patient having received radiation from a Finsen lamp as a child fo r a tuberculous abscess in that region.
