Metastatic Basal Cell Carcinoma: A Biological Continuum of Basal Cell Carcinoma? [PDF]
Case Reports in Dermatological Medicine, 2012 Basal cell carcinoma (BCC) accounts for 80% of all nonmelanoma skin cancers. Its metastasis is extremely rare, ranging between 0.0028 and 0.55 of all BCC cases. The usual metastasis to lymph nodes, lungs, bones, or skin is from the primary tumor situated in the head and neck region in nearly 85% cases.

Basal cell nevus syndrome with excessive basal cell carcinomas [PDF]
Archives of Craniofacial Surgery, 2021 Basal cell nevus syndrome (BCNS), also known as basal cell carcinoma nevus syndrome, Gorlin syndrome, Gorlin-Goltz syndrome, and nevoid basal cell carcinoma, is a rare autosomal dominant disorder with a prevalence of approximately 1/60,000. A lower prevalence rate of 1/13,939,393 has also been reported in Korea. We report the case of a 40-year-old male

Postgraduate Medical Journal, 1997 Summary Basal cell carcinoma is the commonest malignancy in Caucasians with incidence rates of 300 per 100,000 reported in the USA. Rates are increasing at over 10% per year leading to a lifetime risk of 30%. Although mortality is low, the disease is responsible for considerable morbidity and places a substantial burden on health service

Periungual basal cell carcinoma [PDF]
Anais Brasileiros de Dermatologia, 2018 Periungual basal cell carcinoma is rare and needs to be differentiated from other common diseases that affect this region. Several factors are associated with the development of this tumor, and sun damage seems to play an important role in its pathogenesis.

Basal Cell Carcinoma in a Child [PDF]
Journal of Skin Cancer, 2011 Basal cell carcinoma is the most commonly seen nonmelanoma skin cancer which is rarely encountered in the childhood period. An 11-year old child was admitted to our clinic due to an erythematous and a slightly pigmented lesion with a3×4 cm diameter on his posterior scalp. Macroscopically, the lesion was excised with a 10 mm safety margin.

Focus on Basal Cell Carcinoma [PDF]
Journal of Skin Cancer, 2011 Nonmelanoma skin cancers (NMSCs), which include basal and squamous cell cancers are the most common human cancers. BCCs have a relatively low metastatic rate and slow growth and are frequently underreported. Whilst there is a definite role of sunexposure in the pathogenesis of BCC, several additional complex genotypic, phenotypic and environmental ...

Dermoscopy of basal cell carcinoma [PDF]
Clinical and Experimental Dermatology, 2018 Dermoscopy is widely used in dermatological practice. The method increases the accuracy of basal cell carcinoma (BCC) detection. Pigmented and nonpigmented variants of basal cell carcinoma present different dermoscopic features. Specific dermoscopy criteria have been recognized in different subtypes of BCC. Differentiation of superficial BCC from other

The Histochemistry of the Basal Cell Epithelioma
Journal of Investigative Dermatology, 1963 Sunlight has been accepted as a major etiologic factor in the development of basal cell epithelioma of the skin. Lesions have been reported, however, following other types of trauma and an appreciable number occur on areas seldom exposed to light (as the axillae, lower abdomen, lower legs, soles (13) and buttocks) and in areas never exposed to light ...

Culture of Basal Cell Carcinoma
Journal of Investigative Dermatology, 1992 Studies of basal cell carcinoma have been hindered by a lack of a suitable and reproducible tissue-culture model system. We have succeeded in growing this tumor in primary culture from eight different patients. We can separate and grow the tumor cells and the stromal cell component.
