Abstract
|
|
Introduction:
Nevus sebaceous is a congenital hamartomatous lesion that usually appears on the scalp and neck. With the advance of age, benign and malignant tumor changes on nevus sebaceous lesions may occur, these tumors are usually benign. Malignant transformation is very rare on the sebaceous nevus and the basal cell carcinoma is the most common.
Case Report: A 50-year-old female patient was admitted to our clinic with a 5×3 cm sized a verrucous erythematous plaque on the left parietal region of head. Total surgical excision was performed and histopathological examination of the sample revealed a basal cell carcinoma developed on ground of nevus sebaceous. Conclusion: To highlight importance of this rare malign development, a case of basal cell carcinoma on the ground of nevus sebaceous is presented. | |
