Nonsyndromic Multiple Basal Cell Carcinomas.

Basal cell carcinoma (BCC) comprising several lesions is not uncommon, but nonsyndromic multiple BCCs with parotid invasion are rare entities. We present two cases of multiple sporadic, nonsyndromic BCCs, and one of these cases is a unique case of parotid invasion associated purely with actinic keratosis. In Case 1, a 79-year-old female presented with multiple skin lesions on the face and left hand. All lesions were completely removed by surgery. The pathologic results showed lesions consistent with BCC and some lesions consistent with actinic keratosis. After 8 months, the patient presented with skin lesions in bilateral temporal areas and left cheek area. Surgical excision of the lesions was performed, and the biopsy results were squamous cell carcinoma in situ and actinic keratosis. In Case 2, a 43-year-old woman presented with multiple skin lesions on the face, scalp, right chest, abdomen and right leg. All lesions were completely removed by surgery. Pathologic evaluation confirmed the diagnosis of BCC. BCC is rarely metastatic, but it can lead to severe disfiguration or destruction. It is important to diagnose and treat BCC at an early stage.
