Popis: Abstract Background Basal cell carcinoma (BCC) incidence is steadily increasing but therapeutic solutions remain limited and present a public health challenge. Aims To identify predictive factors of BCC recurrence after primary free margin excision, with automated methods, by evaluating cell proliferation, the Hedgehog pathway activation and primary cilia. Materials and Methods This case–control study included 32 patients (16 with recurrence occurring at least 6 months after complete resection, and 16 without recurrence) who underwent surgery for BCC. Formalin‐fixed paraffin‐embedded cutaneous resections were processed for immunohistochemistry or immunostaining with the following primary antibodies: mouse anti‐MCM6, rabbit anti‐ARL13B and rabbit anti‐GLI1. Results BCC recurrence after free margin excision was significantly linked to a higher proliferative index (p
