Popis: | [Background]: Acantholytic cutaneous squamous cell carcinomas (aCSCCs) have been classically considered as a high-risk variant of CSCC. However, more recent studies show that aCSCC does not confer more aggressiveness. This study aims to establish whether the prognosis of the aCSCC is worse than that of the non-acantholytic (naCSCC) or not. [Methods]: Retrospective case-control study with 50 aCSCCs and 50 naCSCCs. For each aCSCC, an naCSCC with similar high-risk features to the aCSCC but with no acantholysis was selected. Prognosis between both groups was compared. [Results]: The mean age was 86 years (SD 9.61). Sixty-one patients were men. Thirty-nine CSCCs were located in high-risk head and neck areas. Twenty CSCCs exhibited a poor degree of differentiation, and 36 showed an infiltrative growth pattern. The tumor diameter was 18.71 mm (interquartile range, IQR 35), and the tumor thickness was 6.72 mm (IQR 15.50). Twelve CSCCs exhibited perineural infiltration, and eight CSCCs exhibited invasion beyond the subcutaneous fat.
