| pubmed-article:2176667 | pubmed:abstractText | A 76-year-old woman was referred after results of the biopsy of an ulcerated mass of the right long finger suggested poorly differentiated squamous cell carcinoma. Excision and skin grafting were done and a diagnosis of malignant acrospiroma was established. These tumors are aggressive and 5-year survival rate may be as low as 30%. A ray amputation was subsequently done and the specimen was without residual tumor. At 14 months follow-up, the patient remains free of disease. | lld:pubmed |
