dc.description.abstractIn this article, it was aimed to show that ulcerations can develop not only following circulatory insufficiency, localized pressure, granulomatous degeneration, malignant tumors and local injections, but following exogenous traumas to skin as well. We present a 65-year-old male with a history of ulcer development on his nape following a cranial trauma 6 weeks before. A biopsy was taken to differentiate it from squamous cell carcinoma. Histopathologic examination revealed no tumor cell areas. Bacteriologic culture from ulcer floor revealed enterobacter. By enacting a combined systemic therapy with ciprofloxacin and gentamycin in addition to topical antiseptic therapy, the ulcer underwent complete remission in 15 days. This case is presented not only to draw attention to the possible clinical similarities between traumatic ulceration and squamous cell carcinoma, but also to emphasize the importance of differential diagnosis in the proper treatment of ulcers.
