BACKGROUND: Head and neck squamous cell carcinoma of unknown primary site (HNSCCUP) is a diagnostic challenge. Identification of an ultraviolet (UV) light-related DNA damage signature using next-generation sequencing (NGS) can classify the primary site of origin as cutaneous.
METHODS: A 62-year-old male was seen with 2 months of left neck swelling. He was a lifetime nonsmoker but had a history of cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) of the left helix. He was also found to have left hilar adenopathy. He had a p16-negative HNSCCUP on fine needle aspiration (FNA) biopsy of the left neck.
RESULTS: NGS of the FNA specimen revealed a high number of somatic mutations that were mostly C to T transitions, indicating a UV mutation signature and confirming the diagnosis of cutaneous SCC.
CONCLUSIONS: Identification of a UV DNA damage signature with NGS distinguishes HNSCCUP of cutaneous vs mucosal or other squamous cell carcinoma origin.
