Rarely, cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) may be associated with PS. We present a patient with a giant SCC located on the right leg and a pheochromocytoma. Considering the concurrent onset and parallel course of both pheochromocytoma and SCC in this patient, and the complete resolution of the endocrine abnormalities after resection of the skin tumor, it was possible to conceive of the pheochromocytoma as a paraneoplastic phenomenon. To our knowledge, this association has not been previously describedTEXTznanstveno časopisjejournalsSlovenian National E-content AggregatorNational and University Library of SloveniaZdruženje slovenskih dermatovenerologov
