Abstract
Verrucous carcinoma refers to a clinicopathologic concept implying a locally aggressive, clinically exophytic, low-grade, well-differentiated squamous cell carcinoma with minimal metastatic potential. Verrucous tumor, as described by Ackerman, is a variant of well differentiated squamous-cell carcinoma. Overall, patients with verrucous carcinoma have a favorable prognosis, although the course of verrucous carcinoma lesions is characterized by slow, continuous local growth. Four subtypes have been defined according to the location. Here, we present two verrucous tumor cases which are found in different locations. Both tumors were originated in areas where surgery is mostly utilized. Several treatment modalities and surgical techniques of these tumours also have been discussed in this article.
Özet
Verrüköz kanser, lokal olarak agresif yapıda, klinik olarak ekzofitik olan, düşük dereceli ve minimal metastaz potansiyeli olan iyi diferansiye skuamöz hücreli kanserdir. Verrüköz kanser, Ackerman tarafından tanımlanan, iyi differansiye skuamöz hücreli karsinomun bir varyantıdır. Genel olarak, verrüköz kanser yavaş ve devamlı olarak büyüme göstermesine rağmen iyi prognoza sahiptir. Günümüzde yerleşimine göre 4 tipi tanımlanmıştır. Bu makalede iki farklı yerleşim gösteren ve cerrahinin en sık uygulandığı bölgelerde gelişen verrüköz kanser olguları sunulmuştur. Bu kanserlere yaklaşım ve uygulanan cerrahi teknikler irdelenmiştir.
