Popis: Squamous cell carcinoma is the second most common skin carcinoma, which most commonly affects sun-exposed areas. However squamous cell carcinoma can rarely involve the anal and perianal region. It has been found in association with human papilloma virus infection, uterine cervix dysplastic changes and high-grade anal intraepithelial neoplasia (AIN). We report a case of extensive carcinoma of the perianal region, vulva and cervix. A 49 years old female came with complaint of swelling in the right inguinal region since one year, pain and swelling in the gluteal region since 7-8 months. Contrast enhanced CT scan and MRI were done which showed a mass involving the perianal region, vulva and cervix with a large inguinal lymph node. Biopsy revealed squamous cell carcinoma.
