Systematic review reports on skin cancer risks in burn scars, suggesting improved management strategies.
Skin cancers arising from burn scars, especially SCC, demonstrate aggressive clinical behavior with significant morbidity and mortality. Reduced latency periods and high metastatic potential highlight the importance of vigilant, long-term surveillance and radical initial treatment. This review provides a contemporary benchmark for epidemiological understanding and supports calls for international registries, molecular diagnostics, and standardized management protocols for burn scar malignancies.
