== Historical Aspects ==
Reports of [[non-melanoma cancer]] dates back to biblical times. Percival Pott was likely the first person to report the malignant nature of [[squamous cell carcinoma]] in adolescent British chimney sweeps. That was the first occupation associated squamous cell carcinoma. Later additional associations were reported when there was incidence of squamous cell carcinoma in mule spinners, the so called ''mule spinner's disease''. French surgeon Jean-Nicholas Marjolin, in 1828, first described this carcinoma arising in traumatic scars and subsequently squamous cell carcinoma associated with burns was termed [[''Marjolin's ulcer'']].
