Abstract
- Primary squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) of the colon is an exceptional tumor. Less than 150 cases have been reported in the literature up to the year 2014. In addition to its rarity, it is distinguished by its frequent association with other digestive neoplasias. We report the case of a 54-year old patient with primary SCC of the colon. In the light of this case study, we will discuss the anatomo-clinical and therapeutic features as well as the etiopathogenic assumptions of this unusual entity.
