In a twenty-year period we have treated five patients with intranasal squamous cell carcinomas who initially were thought to have benign cutaneous disorders of the nasal skin. Advanced squamous cell carcinoma requiring total rhinectomy, often with extensive contiguous midface excision, was found in all patients. Three of these five patients died of their disease. In one patient, a red nose resembling acne rosacea was present. In the four others, chronic cellulitic or ulcerative cutaneous involvement was caused by squamous cell carcinoma. These cases emphasize the need for intranasal examination and appropriate radiologic studies to exclude intranasal carcinoma in patients with apparently unresponsive cutaneous nasal disease.
