Basal cell carcinoma (BCC) is the most common skin cancer type in humans. Various factors play a role in BCC occurrence, but sunlight exposure is the most common etiologic factor. This case series presents three patients who had scarring after severe traumas (a deep abrasion, burn, and puncture injury); a long time after the respective traumatic events, a BCC occurred in the scar tissue. The lesions were excised, and BCCs were diagnosed based on histopathology. Although several etiologic factors may play a role in trauma-related BCC, the main mechanism remains unclear. A correct diagnosis with biopsy and an assessment of the lymphatic system are crucial to prevent aggressive procedures, and BCC should be kept in mind when lesions are found in scar tissue.
基底细胞癌（BCC）是人类最常见的皮肤癌类型。多种因素在 BCC 的发生中起作用，但阳光照射是最常见的病因因素。本病例系列介绍了 3 名患者，他们在严重创伤（深度擦伤、烧伤和穿刺伤）后出现了瘢痕；在各自的创伤事件发生很长时间后，瘢痕组织中发生了 BCC。病变被切除，并根据组织病理学诊断为 BCC。尽管有几个病因因素可能在与创伤相关的 BCC 中起作用，但主要机制仍不清楚。通过活检进行正确诊断并评估淋巴系统对于预防激进的治疗程序至关重要，当在瘢痕组织中发现病变时，应考虑到 BCC。
