Squamous cell carcinoma: can grow rapidly, often tender to touch, may have thick central keratin (crusting) or be ulcerated like this one. They are more dangerous than BCCs as they have the potential to metastasise. This was excised and repaired with a full thickness skin graft.

Another melanoma. I was worried this was going to be invasive but thankfully it was still only in-situ, meaning it was still limited to the skins surface. I did call the pathologist to double check this one as it was slightly raised but he confirmed no dermal invasion was present. Excised in rooms.
