title: [Squamous cell carcinoma of the liver].
abstract: A case of primary squamous cell carcinoma of the liver in a 38-year-old male patient is informed. We could only find 13 cases reported in the literature, all of them in male patients; in the Mexican literature this histologic type of hepatic neoplasia has not been reported. The prognosis of these lesions are extremely poor, and no case has survived over six months.
