A Giant Basal Cell Carcinoma of the Scalp-A Clinical Case Study

We describe the case of a 57-year-old female patient who reported to the dermatology outpatient clinic due to a large, ulcerated tumor of the scalp measuring approximately 12 × 10 cm. Based on the interview with the patient, it was determined that the tumor appeared more than 10 years before and was gradually increasing in size. Clinically, advanced basal cell carcinoma was suspected, which was confirmed by histopathological examination. After considering possible therapeutic options in agreement with the patient, the medical board decision qualified her for radiotherapy treatment.
