Abstract
Central and peripheral types of squamous cell carcinoma (SQCC) are classified in different categories due to different clinical-pathological features. Peripheral SQCC, according to histological pattern; it is classified into three subgroups as alveolar space-filling type, expanding type and combined type. Of these three subtypes, alveolar space-filling neither causes lymphatic vessel invasion nor lymph node metastasis and has the best prognosis. Herein, we present a rare case of squamous cell carcinoma that did not metastasize at two and a half years years from initial diagnosis.
