local recurrence but not metastatic spread. Distinguishing VC from benign lesions is difficult because the epidermis shows minimal atypia. VSLDN was first described by Gerbig and Hunziker in 1995. 2 Although the precise pathogenesis of VSLDN is unclear, both VSLDN and diabetic ulcer are thought to be due to chronic pressure or friction in an area of sensory loss. 3 VC occurs preferentially on the foot and usually appears as a warty tumor that may resemble VSLDN. In this case, the patient had been diagnosed with VSLDN, and the right sole lesion did not respond to topical treatment and debridement. A case of VC of the foot developing in a chronic pressure ulcer has been reported. 4 Malignant transformation of a pressure ulcer is rare, with a reported incidence of about 0.5%. Although an association between diabetic ulcer and VC has not been previously demonstrated, the presence of diabetic ulcer in the opposite foot in this case raised the possibility of VC developing from diabetic ulcer. It has been reported that p53 immunostaining is useful for distinguishing between VC and VSLDN because p53 positivity in the basal epidermis in the former is higher than
