【 摘 要 】

Squamous cell carcinoma is a non-melanoma skin cancer with a significant risk of mortality if not diagnosed promptly. A high index of suspicion is required, since it may mimic many benign conditions. Molluscum contagiosum is an innocuous viral infection which can also mimic a wide variety of other conditions.
