Basal cell carcinoma (BCC) is the most common skin cancer. The most significant risk factor is ultraviolet radiation and the most frequent site of BCC is head and neck, with around 75-80% occurring on face. BCC occurs infrequently in non-sun-exposed skin. The axilla is one of the least sun-exposed areas of our body, and as such BCC at this site is very rare. We present a case of large neglected axillary BCC in a 35- year-old male.
基底细胞癌（BCC）是最常见的皮肤癌。最重要的危险因素是紫外线辐射，BCC最常见的部位是头颈部，约75%-80%发生在面部。BCC很少发生在非阳光暴露的皮肤。腋窝是我们身体中阳光暴露最少的部位之一，因此该部位的BCC非常罕见。我们报告一例35岁男性被忽视的巨大腋窝基底细胞癌病例。
