    Area of Science:

    • Oncology
    • Dermatology

    Background:

    • Metastatic basal cell carcinoma (BCC) is an uncommon condition.
    • Diagnosis requires specific clinical and pathological criteria.
    • Long-standing, neglected cutaneous lesions are often observed.

    Observation:

    • A rare case of basal cell carcinoma (BCC) originating on the scalp was identified.
    • The BCC presented as a long-standing and neglected cutaneous lesion.

    Findings:

    • The basal cell carcinoma (BCC) metastasized to the lungs.
    • This represents a rare instance of distant metastasis from a primary scalp BCC.

    Implications:

    • Highlights the importance of recognizing rare presentations of BCC.
    • Underscores the potential for neglected skin cancers to metastasize.
    • Emphasizes the need for thorough diagnostic evaluation in suspected advanced BCC cases.
