It is characterized by its aggressiveness and its increased risk of recurrences and metastases compared to non-scarrings quamous cell carcinoma.

Our work is a retrospective study of 34 cases of Marjolin's ulcer, collected in the plastic surgery department of the CHU Mohammed VI in Marrakech, with the aim of raising the epidemiological, therapeutic and evolutionary aspects of this pathology.
