Squamous cell carcinoma occurring in a skin-grafted ileostomy stoma. Report of a case.
A squamous cell carcinoma arose in a skin-grafted ileostomy stoma 26 years after proctocolectomy for Crohn's colitis. The patient presented with peristomal ulceration and pain of several months' duration. Attention is drawn to this late complication of ileostomy which requires wide local excision and relocation of the stoma.
