Metastatic basal cell carcinoma (MBCC) is extremely rare, with an incidence of 0.0028% to 0.1%. Typical lesions are large, ulcerated, neglected, refractory to treatment and occur more commonly in middle-aged men. Metastases are usually single and to local lymph nodes. Multiple metastases to distant sites are much less common. Certain criteria must be met to diagnose MBCC. A case of MBCC meeting the criteria for diagnosis is reported. The present case is unusual in that the patient is a young woman and the tumour metastasized diffusely throughout the skeleton. |
