📌 3 Key Takeaways
Abstract
Basal cell carcinoma (BCC) is the most common form of skin cancer. Men are affected slightly more often than women. Ethiopathogenesis of BCC is directly related to sun exposure while genetic predisposition, immune deficiency, ionizing radiation, sebaceous nevus, scar tissue, light eyes and hair, history of exposure to arsenic are all considered as predisposing factors. Although BCC typically occurs as a single lesion, multiple lesions may rarely occur especially in predisposing syndromes. On the other hand, recurrences in multiple lesions are rare. Here we reported the patient 67 year-old female patient with non-syndromic multiple and recurrent BCC who as a risk factor previously used tar on to her scalp to provide hair regrowth in childhood.
Özet
ÖZET Bazal hücreli karsinom (BHK), en sık görülen deri kanseridir. Erkekler kadınlara göre biraz daha sık etkilenir. BHK etyopatogenezinde immün yetmezlik, iyonize radyasyon, sebase nevus, skar dokusu, genetik yatkınlık, açık göz ve saç rengine sahip olmak, arsenik ma- ruziyeti gibi predispozan faktörlerin yanında direkt olarak güneş maruziyeti suçlanmak- tadır. BHK genellikle tek lezyon şeklinde görülmekle beraber, özellikle de predispozan sendromlarla nadiren birden fazla lezyon oluşabilir. Öte yandan, çok sayıda lezyon oldu- ğunda nüks olması da nadirdir. Burada sendromik olmayan, risk faktörü olarak çocukluk döneminde saç çıkarması amacıyla kafa derisi için lokal olarak zift kullanan, birden fazla ve tekrarlayan BHK’li 67 yaşındaki bayan hastayı bildiriyoruz.
