Pre-cancerous lesions of the cervix may cause elevated SCC. The full name of SCC is Squamous Epithelial Cell Carcinoma Antigen, which is a tumor marker.The common causes of elevated SCC are squamous cancers, such as cervical cancer, lung cancer, head and neck cancers; hepatitis and so on. Cervical cancer in women often presents with elevated SCC, especially in advanced cervical cancer. The main pathologic type of cervical cancer is squamous cell carcinoma, and SCC is a specific marker for squamous cell carcinoma. Elevated SCC can occur if precancerous lesions of the cervix cause the body to produce sufficiently high concentrations of serum squamous epithelial cell carcinoma antigen. However, not all squamous cell carcinomas will have an elevated SCC. If you have elevated SCC, you need to go to the hospital as soon as possible and have your doctor formulate an individualized diagnosis and treatment plan according to your specific condition, so as to avoid delaying your condition.
