Abstract
Primary squamous cell carcinoma of the colon is extremely rare. The etiology is poorly understood, and currently, there are different hypotheses about the origin of this malignant neoplasm. Here, we report a case of an 87-year-old male with a moderately-differentiated nonkeratinizing squamous cell carcinoma of the colon.
