A 66-year-old woman presented with pure squamous cell carcinoma of the breast, a rare occurrence. The incidence of pure squamous cell carcinoma of the breast is lower than that of the mixed type. The preoperative diagnosis could be made by fine needle aspiration cytology. A modified radical mastectomy was performed. The patient was doing well, with no evidence of recurrence, 17 months after surgery.
