This case presented a therapeutic challenge to preserve tissue and avoid severe facial disfigurement. We found oral acitretin to be the treatment of choice. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

The patient was a European male of 42 who had had 21 carcinomas which healed spontaneously, and presented 8 lesions which were still active. The condition probably never leads to metastasis. [journals.co.za]

Further workup included an interleukin (IL)-1 level, which was within normal limits. Daughter clinical presentation. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Anamnestic data and data concerning age of onset, localization, number of tumours and treatment modalities were collected from the family and from medical records, and all living patients were examined. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

The majority of treatments were recorded retrospectively before a diagnosis of MSSE was established in the family and thus reflects prevailing treatments for SCC or KA. The optimal treatment of MSSE still has to be defined. [medicaljournals.se]

Prognosis Scarring following tumour resolution can be disfiguring. Although tumours can be locally invasive most resolve spontaneously and metastases are very rare. [atlasgeneticsoncology.org]

Also used is cryosurgery and radiotherapy.[2] Prognosis[edit] The prognosis varies dramatically, depending on the type and stage at the time of treatment. [en.wikipedia.org]

If it spreads, the cancer has a worse prognosis and can be fatal. About half of affected individuals survive more than five years after diagnosis. HNSCC is the seventh most common cancer worldwide. [ghr.nlm.nih.gov]

Etiology FSD may be due to loss of function mutations in the gene TGFBR1 (9q22) which encodes a transmembrane serine/threonine kinase receptor involved in TGF-β signaling. [orpha.net]
