Introduction:
Dermatoscopy is an innovative non-invasive technique for clinical morphology of pigmented lesions and skin tumor. The purpose of our study was to highlight the morphological and dermoscopic features of basal cell carcinoma (CBC) in our study population.
Methods:
We conducted a prospective unicentric study over a period of 2 years. We used dermoscopy in all patients with BCC. Statistical analysis was performed using SPSS software version 17.
Results:
The study included 100 patients with BCC, the average age of patients was 51.87 years, with a sex ratio F/M = 0.6. BCC most commonly occurred in the face and most patients were prototype III and IV. We established conventional and non-conventional dermatoscopic criteria. Our study showed that there is a significant relationship between prototype and the degree of BCC pigmentation.
Conclusion:
This study highlighted the key role of dermoscopy in detecting small-sized BCC and in facilitating the diagnosis of pigmented BCC.
