Abstract

Marjolin ulcer is a rare but aggressive malignant transformation of chronic wounds and scars first described by surgeon Jean Nicholas Marjolin. Most commonly associated malignancy is squamous cell carcinoma. A high recurrence and metastatic rate of this lesion warrants a strict vigilance for early diagnosis and management. We present a case report of one such case occurring in a 31-year-old male on a burn scar that occurred when he was 1 year old.
