title: Verrucous carcinoma (epithelioma cuniculatum) plantare.
abstract: A case of plantar verrucous carcinoma is described. The lesion was treated as an ischaemic ulcer before the true nature was recognised. Prior to the diagnosis the patient had a femoro-popliteal arterial bypass graft performed. An amputation was undertaken once the diagnosis was established.
