BONIVENTO JOHNSSON, PETTY et al. NON-MELANOMA SKIN CARCINOMA: SPINOCELLULAR CARCINOMA, CASE REPORT IN A PATIENT WITH TYPE 5 PHOTOTYPE ACCORDING TO FITZPATRICK CLASSIFICATION. Rev. Med [online]. 2018, vol.26, n.2, pp.52-59.  Epub 01-Dez-2018. ISSN 0121-5256.

Spinocellular carcinoma is a subtype of neoplasia that does not involve melanocytes, and together with basal cell carcinoma, they represent 75% of non-melanoma skin carcinomas. In Colombia, it was calculated that from 2003 to 2007 non-melanoma cancer registered an uptick of 19 to 39 cases per 100,000 inhabitants. Spinocellular carcinoma tends to appear in skin phototypes 1 and 2, in photoexposed areas that represent head and neck (70%), in upper extremities (25%) and in non-photoexposed areas such as buttocks and genital mucous membranes (5%). This article makes a case report of a spinocellular carcinoma in a 51-year-old patient with a clinical picture of approximately two years that was characterized by various tumors located in the right lower lip and lower jaw related to chronic sun exposure and presence of actinic keratosis on face and scalp.
