Squamo-melanocytic tumors are very rare. The most common sites are head and neck followed by extremities. It consists of two distinct malignant tumors with epithelial and melanocytic components, hence classified as combined tumor. These tumors represent a diagnostic challenge and histopathological examination plays an important role in early diagnosis as well as treatment. We present a case of combined tumor that is malignant melanoma with squamous cell carcinoma in a 65 year old female patient to highlight its rarity as well as clinical and histomorphological features.
