Area of Science:

  • Dermatology
  • Oncology

Background:

  • Basal cell carcinoma (BCC) is the most prevalent human tumor, typically slow-growing and locally invasive.
  • Standard treatment involves surgical excision with margin assessment, though alternative therapies exist.

Observation:

  • A case report of a 75-year-old patient with ulcus terebrans, a destructive BCC variant.
  • The BCC involved the scalp and invaded the underlying frontal bone.

Findings:

  • Ulcus terebrans represents a rare and aggressive form of BCC.
  • Extensive bone invasion poses significant therapeutic challenges.

Implications:

  • This case underscores the difficulties in managing advanced BCC.
  • It highlights the need for innovative treatment strategies for rare, destructive BCC variants.
