Squamous Cell Carcinoma of Head and Neck
Squamous cell carcinoma of head and neck (SCCHN) is the most common cancer arising in the head and neck region. Smoking and heavy alcohol drinking are still the well-established causes of most cases worldwide; however, human papillomavirus (HPV) infection is the concerning cause in the Western world.

An exceptional case of cutaneous metastasis of squamous cell carcinoma of the lip
Majority of head and neck cancers are squamous cell carcinomas. Distant metastases of squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck (HNSCC) occur at many sites, especially in the lung and bone. However, metastases to the skin are unusual and rare.
