ABSTRACT
Introduction: Squamous cell carcinoma is a malignant tumor derived from epidermal kertinocytes, with metastatic potential. Its incidence is increasing both globally and in Cuba.Objective: To characterize the clinical and epidemiological behavior of patients with squamous cell carcinoma.
Methods: A descriptive, longitudinal and retrospective study was carried out in patients with clinical and histological diagnosis of squamous cell carcinoma in the hospitals of León Cuervo Rubio and Abel Santamaría Cuadrado áreas in the province of Pinar del Río, during the period from January 2019 to December 2020. The universe consisted of 1817 patients, and the sample of 453 patients. The variables age, sex, skin color, clinical forms location and degee of tumor differentiation were studied. Biopsy reports and cancer reports were used to obtain the information.
Results: 45.91% of patients were over 60 years old, 60.70% were male and 417 had white skin. The most frequent clinical form was ulceration with 109 cases, the main tumor location was in the head and neck with 108 patients and 57.17% had a well-differentiated tumor.
Conclusions: No differences were found in terms of epidemiology, clinical data, and histology, compared to what was reported in the literature.
