Squamous cell cancer of the lung is a common condition at the worldwide level, especially in smokers. It typically affects the conduction airway, and the papillary variety tends to invade the bronchi. The most common symptoms are caused by the mechanical effect on the lower airway, and include cough, hemoptysis, and recurrent pneumonia. We present the case of a patient with a well differentiated squamous cell tumor whose behavior was atypical and aggressive, with involvement of the airway, the pleura, the rib cage, and the soft tissues of the chest up to the skin. We also describe its clinical manifestations, diagnostic studies, and review the literature. Squamous cell carcinoma of the lung is one of the non-small-cell lung carcinomas. It is a malignant neoplasm that typically produces keratin, and is discriminated by histological and immunohistochemical studies. Its prevalence is higher among smokers and ex-smokers, who represent 90% of cases. Timely diagnosis improves the survival and quality of life of affected patients. In this article we present a case with atypical behavior; it teaches us to include this condition in the differential diagnosis of injuries compromising the chest wall.
