  • Title: Squamous cell carcinoma of skin developing in a skin graft donor site.
    Author: Neilson D, Emerson DJ, Dunn L.
    Journal: Br J Plast Surg; 1988 Jul; 41(4):417-9. PubMed ID: 3293679.
    Abstract:
    We report a case of squamous cell carcinoma of the skin of the right ring finger which was treated by excision and split skin grafting. Three months later the patient presented with a further lesion at the margin of the skin graft donor site on the right thigh. Excision biopsy of this second lesion revealed a squamous cell carcinoma of a similar pathological appearance to the original lesion. We have been unable to trace any previous similar reports. A possible pathological basis for the sequence of events is discussed.
