Metastasizing basal cell carcinoma. Case report.

T Lildholdt, H Sogaard

    Scandinavian Journal of Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery
    |January 1, 1975
    PubMed
    Summary

    Metastatic basal cell carcinoma is a rare, aggressive skin cancer. Early, complete surgical removal and lymph node monitoring are crucial for managing this advanced disease.

    Area of Science:

    • Dermatology
    • Oncology

    Background:

    • Basal cell carcinoma (BCC) is the most common human cancer.
    • Metastatic BCC is rare but associated with poor prognosis.

    Observation:

    • Three cases of BCC with distant metastases are detailed.
    • Metastases occurred in regional lymph nodes, humerus, and brain.
    • Local recurrence despite radical surgery indicated aggressive tumor biology.

    Findings:

    • Histological examination confirmed aggressive growth patterns.
    • Metastases confirm the existence of an aggressive BCC subtype.
    • Aggressive BCC requires prompt and thorough initial treatment.

    Implications:

    • Early radical surgical intervention is critical for aggressive BCC.
    • Regular follow-up including lymph node examination is essential.
    • Highlights the importance of recognizing and managing aggressive BCC variants.
