High-risk squamous cell carcinoma masquerading as dense inflammation on Mohs frozen sections

Abstract

High-risk squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) can present a unique challenge in Mohs surgery. This case report describes how high-risk SCC may masquerade as only a dense inflammation on frozen sections. This feature should raise the index of suspicion for hidden SCC and be a routine indication for further processing by paraffin sections and immunohistochemistry.
