ntroduction: Basal Cell Carcinoma (BCC) typically affects older individuals with Predilection for sun-exposed skin (face, hands) small, well-circumscribed, pearly tan-gray papule devoid of scale lesions enlarge with time and tend to ulcerate (rodent ulcers). Basal cell nevus syndrome: multiple basaloid hamartomas on the cutaneous surface associated with palmar keratotic pits, jaw cysts, and basal cell carcinomas in non–sun-exposed locations. BCC rarely metastasize; when they do, the primary lesion is usually advanced. Aim: The aim of our study was to determine the frequency of various types of BCCs encountered in our practice, to delineate the spectrum in our setup and to determine the different histological patterns, anatomical location, site predilection, and age and sex incidence. Materials and methods: The present study was carried out in the department of pathology in a tertiary care centre. The study was prospective (2years) as well as retrospective (5 years) and was done during the period of September 2004 to September 2011 i.e., 7 years. Results: In the present study 21 cases of BCC were seen and accounted for 26.25% of all the malignant tumors of skin. Conclusions: In the present study majority (85%) of the lesions of BCC were located on head and neck region, average age of cases of basal cell carcinoma was 65.6 years, and solid type of BCC was most common type |
