Atypical (Fungiform) basal cell carcinoma arising on a Tattoo: A case report

Basal cell carcinoma (BCC) is a malignant tumor that may arise in skin damaged by sunlight and ionizing radiation in burn or vaccination scars. Clinical variants of BCC include nodular, morphea type, superficial and polypoid. Tattoo reactions are histologically diverse and can be classified in three main classes: 1) Allergic, granulomatous, and Lichenoid reactions; 2) Inoculation and infe...

Basal Cell Carcinoma Arising on a Verrucous Epidermal Nevus: A Case Report

We report a case of basal cell carcinoma that appeared from an epidermal verrucous nevus in a 61-year-old patient. The onset of basal cell carcinoma in sebaceous nevi, basal cell nevi and dysplastic nevi is relatively common, but it is rarely associated with epidermal verrucous nevi. There is no consensus on whether the two lesions have a common cellular origin or whether they merely represent ...

Basal cell nevus syndrome presenting as a tender mass of the jaw: A case report

Pigmented basal cell carcinoma: A rare case report.

Basal cell carcinoma is the most common skin cancer mainly caused by prolonged exposure to ultraviolet rays. It is also known as rodent ulcer or basal cell epithelioma. The main mechanism suggested is prolonged exposure to high intensity ultraviolet rays, which causes DNA damage. Pigmented basal cell carcinoma is a rare variety of basal cell carcinoma. Usually, it presents as pigmented nodular ...
