Abstract
Importance
Although most cases of cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma (CSCC) are easily cured with surgery or ablation, a subset of these tumors recur, metastasize, and cause death. We conducted the largest study of CSCC outcomes since 1968.
Objective
To identify risk factors independently associated with poor outcomes in primary CSCC.
