Basal cell carcinoma is a malignant skin cancer, originating from basal cells. However, it is regarded more benign than other skin cancers, in the majority of the cases. If left untreated, it can lead to various complications, degradation of quality of life and even mortality to the patient. A basal cell carcinoma with one dimension more than 20 cm, is defined as super-giant. In this report, we present a case of a super-giant basal cell carcinoma occupying most of the scalp in an elderly patient, causing him severe anemia and general malaise.
基底细胞癌是一种起源于基底细胞的恶性皮肤癌。然而，在大多数情况下，它被认为比其他皮肤癌的恶性程度更低。如果不进行治疗，它会导致各种并发症、生活质量下降，甚至导致患者死亡。一个维度超过20厘米的基底细胞癌被定义为超巨型。在本报告中，我们呈现了一例老年患者的超巨型基底细胞癌病例，该肿瘤占据了大部分头皮，导致他严重贫血和全身不适。
