Treatment was performed by local radiotherapy and response was poor, as it usually happens in this type of tumors. Patient survived seven months after diagnosis. We present the clinical case and a bibliographic review. CONCLUSIONS: SCCP is a rare, difficult to diagnose and poor in prognosis tumor with very few therapeutic options.
