title: Squamous cell and adnexal carcinomas of the skin.
abstract: The diagnosis and treatment of adnexal cancers continues to pose a challenge to a wide range of clinicians. The diseases are a diverse lot, owing to the wide range of skin structures and large surface area. Early recognition and treatment are key to improved outcomes. Education of the patients as to their role in their care, especially early detection, is also of crucial importance. Further study may yield information to improve diagnosis and treatment.
