Abstract: The incidence of SCC from chronic osteomyelitis is 0.2-1.7% [1, 2]. Here we report a cases of SCC arising from chronic osteomyelitis presented as non healing skin ulcer. In our case untreated fracture led to chronic osteomyelitis and sinus formation. It is evident that chronic irritation, repeated infection, and prolonged discharge from sinus tracts gradually triggered cellular changes, culminating into malignant transformation.
