Subdermal basal-cell carcinoma

D J Grande, D C Whitaker, F C Koranda

    The Journal of Dermatologic Surgery and Oncology
    |September 1, 1982
    PubMed
    Summary
    This summary is machine-generated.

    Recurrent basal-cell carcinoma at the mandibular ramus presented as a subdermal nodule after aggressive treatment. Incomplete tumor removal or deep implantation during the procedure may have caused this unusual recurrence.

    Area of Science:

    • Dermatology
    • Oncology
    • Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery

    Background:

    • Basal-cell carcinoma (BCC) is the most common type of skin cancer.
    • Recurrence of BCC can occur, particularly after aggressive treatment modalities.
    • The mandibular ramus is a less common site for BCC compared to sun-exposed areas.

    Observation:

    • A case of BCC recurrence at the mandibular ramus is presented.
    • The recurrence manifested as a clinically evident subdermal nodule.
    • Previous treatment involved aggressive curettage and electrodesiccation, penetrating through the dermis.

    Findings:

    • The recurrence pattern suggests potential challenges in complete tumor extirpation.
    • Iatrogenic deep implantation of tumor cells during the initial procedure is a hypothesized cause.

  • The subdermal presentation is atypical for BCC recurrence at this site.

    • Implications:

    • This case highlights the importance of thorough surgical evaluation for BCC.
    • Aggressive treatment techniques may require meticulous follow-up to detect unusual recurrences.
    • Understanding iatrogenic implantation mechanisms is crucial for refining surgical techniques in head and neck oncology.
