Abstract
Two cases of primary squamous-cell carcinoma arising in a stomach damaged by corrosive acid burns are reported. Thirty-three previously reported cases of pure squamous carcinoma of the stomach are tabulated and their pathogenesis is discussed. A plea is made for treating corrosive acid burns of the stomach by some form of resection of the entire area involved rather than by more conservative methods, such as gastrojejunostomy, which have been used in the past.
