Area of Science:

  • Dermatology
  • Oncology
  • Pathology

Background:

  • Basal cell carcinoma (BCC) and keratoacanthoma (KA) are common skin neoplasms.
  • Co-occurrence of BCC and KA is rare, necessitating detailed case reporting.

Observation:

  • A 65-year-old Korean female presented with a 20-year history of multiple facial papules and nodules.
  • The patient reported no history of arsenic exposure, radiation, herbal medications, or pre-existing skin conditions.

Findings:

  • Histopathological examination confirmed the presence of both solid and adenoid types of basal cell carcinoma.
  • Keratoacanthoma was also identified, indicating a coexisting diagnosis.

Implications:

  • This case underscores the importance of thorough histopathological evaluation for accurate diagnosis of complex skin lesions.

  • Understanding the association between BCC and KA can aid in clinical management and prognosis.
  • Further research into potential shared etiologies or risk factors for coexisting BCC and KA is warranted.
