(b) Colon biopsy (H&E, 40x) showing a dysplastic squamous cell epithelium with keratin material, suspicious for squamous cell carcinoma. (c) Gross picture showing a cystic teratoma with sebaceous material and hair (right), the colon (left), and a firm white tan mass in between. (d) Squamous cell carcinoma (inferior left) invading into the colonic wall up to the submucosa (H&E, 20x). (e) P63 immunostain highlighting the tumor (20x). (f) Negative p16 immunostain (20x).
