A Patient-Derived Xenograft Model for Venous Malformation
Published on: June 15, 2020
Abstract:
Basal cell carcinoma has been reported to occur in sites of chronic trauma, inflammation, or scarring, and even after a single injury. We report on a patient in whom a nodular basal cell carcinoma developed at the site of venipuncture. The venipuncture occurred six months earlier and the site never healed but gradually progressed to a nodule of basal cell carcinoma. Single injuries may provoke or aggravate the growth of basal cell carcinoma.
