History:

This poorly defined pigmented lesion on the scalp was noted on a skin examination. The area was shave biopsied and shown to be a pigmented intraepidermal carcinoma. It shows dots in lines which is a classic feature of this condition and in one image also shows the coiled vessels which are again typical of SCC in situ. He was treated with efudix cream.
