Cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma (cSCC) is a non-melanoma skin cancer whose lesions mostly arise on light-exposed sites. Patients with compromised immunity, Fitzpatrick I or II skin phototype, and previous burn scars or radiations are more at risk of developing it. The treatment of choice for cSCC is surgery; however nonsurgical options are generally reserved for patients who refuse a very invasive treatment or cannot tolerate a surgical procedure. We report a case of cSCC successfully treated with intralesional methotrexate.
Keywords: NMSC; methotrexate; squamous cell carcinoma.
