Abstract
A 68-year-old patient was referred to the dermatology clinic with a large destructive tumour on his nose. Due to COVID-19-related fear, he had avoided his regular dermatology appointments. Histopathology revealed a poorly differentiated squamous cell carcinoma. This case demonstrates the impact of delayed healthcare due to fear of COVID-19.
