Basal cell carcinoma (BCC) is the most common skin cancer in the fair-skinned adult population over 50 years of age and the incidence is rising. Generally, BCC has an indolent course, low mortality and a good prognosis due to low rates of metastasis. Giant basal cell carcinoma is a rare reported oncological entity which accounts for 0.5% to 1% of all cases of BCC and has a diameter larger than 5cm. Basosquamous carcinoma is a rare high-risk type of BCC with clinical and histopathological features of both BCC and squamous cell carcinoma. A 61-year-old female presented to our clinic for a giant bleeding tumor located under her left breast. She initially noted the tumor almost 15 years ago. Although the patient was a nurse, she was afraid to seek medical advice until an episode of significant bleeding. At presentation the tumor was a 15/7cm in size, was invading the underlying structures and had a central ulceration. The margins of the tumoral plaque had several nodules and pearly structures suggesting the possible clinical diagnosis of BCC.
基底细胞癌(BCC)是50岁以上白种成年人中最常见的皮肤癌,且发病率正在上升。一般来说,BCC病程进展缓慢,死亡率低,由于转移率低,预后良好。巨大基底细胞癌是一种罕见的肿瘤实体,占所有BCC病例的0.5%至1%,直径大于5厘米。基底鳞状细胞癌是一种罕见的高风险BCC类型,具有BCC和鳞状细胞癌的临床及组织病理学特征。一名61岁女性因左乳房下方出现巨大出血性肿瘤前来我院就诊。她大约在15年前首次发现该肿瘤。尽管患者是一名护士,但直到发生一次大量出血事件,她才敢寻求医疗建议。就诊时,肿瘤大小为15/7厘米,侵犯了深层结构,并有中央溃疡。肿瘤斑块边缘有几个结节和珍珠样结构,提示可能的临床诊断为BCC。
