Keratoacanthoma‐like squamous cell carcinoma successfully treated by the surgery combined with ALA‐PDT

Abstract Keratoacanthoma‐like squamous cell carcinoma (KA‐like SCC) is a malignant classification of KA. We report here a case of surgical combined with 5‐aminolevulinic acid‐photodynamic therapy (ALA‐PDT) to treat KA‐like SCC in an elderly male with successful tumor removal. The tumor resection was...

description Abstract Keratoacanthoma‐like squamous cell carcinoma (KA‐like SCC) is a malignant classification of KA. We report here a case of surgical combined with 5‐aminolevulinic acid‐photodynamic therapy (ALA‐PDT) to treat KA‐like SCC in an elderly male with successful tumor removal. The tumor resection was performed before ALA‐PDT. One week later, the lesion site was further treated with 20% ALA for 3 h when it was unknown whether the tumor was resected entirely or not. The irradiation was performed with a 633 nm light‐emitting diode lamp at 100 mW/cm2 for 200 J/cm2 after wiping off the ALA cream. Two sessions of ALA‐PDT were performed at a 2 weeks interval. One month after ALA‐PDT, the surgical trace of the lesion was found to have disappeared entirely, with a little scab, and the cancer did not recur. After 1 year of follow‐up, there was no recurrence. The combination with surgery and ALA‐PDT may provide a new idea for the treatment of KA‐like SCC for a wide range of patients.
