Cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma (cSCC) is the second most common malignant skin tumor in Caucasian populations and occurs predominantly on sun-exposed areas of the body. In Germany, which has a nationwide skin cancer screening program, cSCC is usually detected in early tumor stages and can curatively be treated by surgical excision. We report the case of a 59-year-old man who had a giant untreated cSCC of the scalp and died from the local and systemic effects of the aggressively growing tumor. A subsequent medicolegal autopsy was performed. It is noteworthy that the patient had refused medical therapy throughout his lifetime despite the prominence of the tumor. Embarrassment, fear of stigmatization, and denial of the disease itself, as a coping mechanism for self-protection, are possible explanations for giant tumors not being treated, leading to a heightened importance of psycho-oncology in modern cancer therapy to ensure that the mental health of the patient remains intact.

Vilnius University's Faculty of Medicine, with a history dating back to the 18th century, has gathered numerous anatomy and pathology specimens over time. Regrettably, insufficient preservation has led to considerable deterioration of the collection. This study aims to evaluate the quantity and variety of congenital malformation specimens from the 20th century that remain under the care of our institution. Using archival records and visual inspection, we conducted a thorough assessment of these specimens. Congenital malformations represent an important aspect of human intrauterine development, offering valuable insights into medical history, embryology, and the complexities of prenatal life. While such anomalies were once frequently documented in historical records, they are now rarely encountered in modern medicine, largely attributable to advancements in perinatal healthcare and the availability of pregnancy termination. A total of 54 congenital malformation specimens were identified, with nervous system embryopathies being the most prevalent, followed closely by urinary tract and kidney embryopathies. Detailed documentation of these valuable historical specimens supports the development of a joint anatomy and pathology museum housed within the premises of Vilnius University's Faculty of Medicine. Establishing a unified museum to preserve and showcase this diverse collection of congenital malformations would provide a unique educational resource for students and researchers.
