Basal cell carcinoma (BCC) has several subclassifications, including pigmented basal cell carcinoma. In our clinical experience, we have found that pigmented basal cell carcinoma itself has multiple subtypes which can overlap with traditional basal cell carcinoma subclassifications. In this letter, we argue for the subclassification of pigmented basal cell carcinoma, as either superficial, nodular, or morpheaform. We believe further subclassification of pigmented BCCs may reveal important therapeutic and prognostic differences which could make an impact on the morbidity and mortality of this condition for those affected, many of whom are skin of color patients that are already disproportionately affected by health disparities related to skin cancer.

基底细胞癌（BCC）有多种亚分类，包括色素性基底细胞癌。根据我们的临床经验，我们发现色素性基底细胞癌本身有多种亚型，这些亚型可能与传统的基底细胞癌亚分类重叠。在这封信中，我们主张将色素性基底细胞癌分为浅表型、结节型或硬斑病样型。我们认为，对色素性基底细胞癌进行进一步亚分类可能会揭示重要的治疗和预后差异，这可能会对受此疾病影响的人群的发病率和死亡率产生影响，其中许多是有色人种患者，他们已经受到与皮肤癌相关的健康差距的不成比例影响。《药物皮肤病学杂志》。2023年；22（2）：217 - 218。doi:10.36849/JDD.6883。
