The vermilion border of the lower lip is a frequent location of squamous cell carcinoma (SCC), but it is very rarely mentioned within the published series of basal cell carcinomas (BCCs).
We present 6 cases of BCC involving either mainly or exclusively the vermilion border of a lip.
We reviewed from our files all the cases of BCC diagnosed in a period of 11 years.
A number of 3,477 BCCs were histologically diagnosed in that period; 2,872 (82.6%) of them were located on the head, and 66 (2.3%) of the latter (1.9% of all BCCs) were on the lips. In 6 cases, the neoplasm involved either mainly or exclusively the vermilion border of either the lower (5 cases) or the upper (1 case) lip.
Not every carcinoma of the vermilion border of the lip is a SCC.
下唇的唇红缘是鳞状细胞癌(SCC)的常见发病部位,但在已发表的基底细胞癌(BCC)系列病例中很少被提及。
我们报告6例主要或仅累及唇部唇红缘的基底细胞癌。
我们回顾了档案中11年间诊断的所有基底细胞癌病例。
在该时期经组织学诊断出3477例基底细胞癌;其中2872例(82.6%)位于头部,后者中的66例(2.3%)(占所有基底细胞癌的1.9%)位于唇部。在6例病例中,肿瘤主要或仅累及下唇(5例)或上唇(1例)的唇红缘。
并非所有唇部唇红缘的癌都是鳞状细胞癌。
