Squamous cell carcinoma arising from Marjolin’s ulcer of the suprapubic cystostomy tract is a rare entity that usually occurs in patients with a history of spinal cord injuries and a chronic indwelling catheter. We present 2 cases of this rare entity with the clinical exams needed for diagnosis and treatment according to individual characteristics of each case. Marjolin’s ulcer is a cutaneous malignancy that arises from injured skin. The most frequent type of malignancy identified on histopathologic examination is squamous cell carcinoma (80-90%). It can develop from long-standing scars, chronic wounds, pressure ulcers, osteomyelitis, and burns. Only cases have been reported about Marjolin’s ulcer with squamous cell carcinoma at the cystostomy cite. Treatment regimens have not been standardized; cases have received individualized treatments, usually with excision, radiation, or a combination of both. There is insufficient evidence to aid in the understanding of the etiology. In addition, there is no consensus on its optimal treatment and follow-up schemes.
