Postpartum colonic squamous cell carcinoma with a BRAFV600E mutation: a case report
Squamous cell carcinoma of the colon, particularly in postpartum women, is uncommon and often associated with an advanced stage and poor prognosis. Presently, patients with colorectal cancer carrying the BRAF<sup>V600E</sup> mutation typically exhibit a low ratio, an advanced stage, and limited response to existing treatment approaches, resulting in a poor prognosis. Considerable emphasis and effort must be devoted to colonic squamous cell carcinoma, specifically cases harboring the BRAF<sup>V600E</sup> mutation.
