A 74-year-old male patient came to medical consultation presenting a hyperpigmented stain near the lower left eyelid edge, with varying colors, between different shades of brown; the biopsy confirmed the diagnosis of lentigo maligna. Its location on the eyelid edge is rare. There is some divergence in the literature regarding the best method for its treatment. Non-surgical therapeutic options, such as imiquimod, have been suggested, as well as different variants in surgical management and required margins. In the case described, it was chosen to manage with conservative margins, preserving, the functionality of the area.

Squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) represents the second most common type of skin cancer. SCC originates from the atypical proliferation of the cells of the epidermis's spinous layer and is more frequent in men over 50 years of age, with a low skin phototype and history of sun exposure. We describe the case of a 61-year-old man, previously healthy, with a lesion presenting fast and exuberant growth on the face. The anatomopathological and immunohistochemical exams confirmed the diagnosis of moderately differentiated SCC.
