Common Questions and Answers about Aldara squamous cell carcinoma

Thank you so much for your reply. The dermatologist originally did a shave biopsy on the mole for me, just because I wanted it flat. (It is on my nose.) In an odd twist, the whole area became red and swollen after the scab came off. This is the area of the original mole and the area around it. I believe some kind of scraping was involved so I thought maybe this caused it. I was told it was not an infection or scar tissue as I went back to be evaluated.
This wound is now refusing to heal (the secondary wound not skin graft) and am wondering if I should ask my doctor for yet another biopsy on the non healing wound given it is so close to the original squamous cell carcinoma? Here in Australia the demographic for this cancer is approx 75yrs Male and worked in sun all life, I am however only 39, female and never worked in the sun, and only had two sunburns as a child no further exposures resulting in burns as an adult.
The good news is the prognosis for cats with Squamous cell carcinoma is much better than it is for other types of cancer. If the cancer is treated early enough, squamous cell carcinoma in cats is usually treatable. In most cats with skin Squamous cell carcinoma, the prognosis following surgery is excellent. It is promising that the affected area is small. It is a much better prognosis than for nose, ears or mouth!
There is no great rush for basal cell or squamous cell like there is with melanoma. To me this looks like a common reaction to sun exposure in someone with Irish or Scottish heritage particularly. If it cracks, bleeds, or has a change in surface texture, then I might suspect basal cell or squamous cell. With such fair skin, if you avoid sun exposure for a year, this will not leave much of a scar probably if you have it snipped off.
Biopsy done almost 2 weeks ago @ 650.00, results came back as Squamous Cell Carcinoma go back to have the job finished, was informed they needed 1805.00. Well needless to say I have stiches from the biopsy and still have the carcinoma. At what rate does this cancer grow... Can't go to the health dept b/c I work for a living... What do I do?
I had Mohs Surgery on my lower lip 2 months ago for superficially invasive well-differentiated squamous cell carcinoma. 3 layers were removed, post-op size was 2.1 x 1.3 cm. I have been following up with a dentist, an ENT as well as a dermotologist. My surgeon says he got it all (clean margins). I was also told by ENT I have allergic rhinitis and I have a bad taste in my mouth, also on lips. All of this is stressing me because I lost my mother 5 years ago from oral squamous cell carcinoma.
Hi. The next thing to do is to look for the organ from where that squamous cell carcinoma might have originated. Primary liver cancers usually present with a histology of adenocarcinoma (not squamous cell carcinoma), so your mom's liver mass must have come from somewhere else. The most likely candidates would be the lungs, the head and neck area, and the uterine cervix. It's important to first determine the organ of origin so that treatment will be more focused.
What percent of Squamous Cell Carcinoma patients subsequently develop brain cancer after successful Mohs surgery ? My last two check-ups have been great ; and my surgery experience was wonderful and without pain or incident - but in light of unexplained neurological problems , the thought crossed my mind . I have had two normal MRI's of the brain . The first was a closed MRI without contrast . The second was an open MRI also without contrast .
White female, age 35, 20 years smoking, protracted oral lichen planus
I was recently diagnosed with oral squamous cell carcinoma. It was on my R buccal mucosa. The path report says that it was early that there was a lot of inflamation. This was only last week so I'm floored. The "tumor" was small and I left it there for 2-3 months thinking that it was related to the lichen planus. It was a circular raised lesion covered with white -about the size of an eraser head.
An estimated 3,500 new cases of skin cancer of the lips occur each year, and 90 percent of them are squamous cell carcinoma, according to an April 2008 MSNBC Health report, "Not just lip service: Gloss can invite skin cancer." If diagnosed in its early stages and treated properly, this form of cancer is not as serious as other types, according to the report. But left untreated, this carcinoma can cause lip disfigurement, and in rare cases it can spread and become deadly.
The survival rate depends on what specific treatment was used in the clinical trial, and what organ the squamous cell carcinoma originated from (e.g. lung, head and neck, skin, unknown primary site, etc.). I can answer your question better if you can give me more details regarding the patient being treated (age, sex, etc.), the type of cancer being treated (lung, head and neck, etc.), and the treatment being given. Hope to hear from you soon.
All I can find on the web is stupid Squamous Cell Carcinoma, not Squamous Cell Mucosa, but I did find something that says the whole mess is caused by a compromised immune system. Does anyone know anything about this?
May I just say at this point, @*#*!*%#*@ Hepatitis C!!!! I just read the post about the man with high ammonia levels. Yeah. I'm reliving the terror I experienced when I was first diagnosed and failed my first treatment.
