Are verruca vulgaris and radiation exposure associated with squamous cell carcinoma of the finger? Context: Factors associated with the development of squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) of the finger are verruca vulgaris, radiation exposure, burns, and arsenic ingestion. We wish to further document the relationship between human papillomavirus (HPV) and roentgen exposure to squamous cell carcinoma of the finger. A retrospective study of 32 cases of digital squamous cell carcinoma seen at UCLA Medical Center was performed. Ten patients (31%) had histories of verrucae at the site of the carcinoma. Eight patients (25%) had histories of x-ray therapy to the hand.
