Known and new facts on basal cell carcinoma

Abstract: Summary Basal cell carcinoma (BCC) is the most common malignant tumor in light‐skinned people and amounts to about 75 % of all cases of skin cancer. Increasing incidence rates have been reported for decades all over the world. The main risk factors include UV radiation, male sex, light skin type, advanced age, long‐term immunosuppression, a positive individual or family history, and certain genodermatoses. BCC metastasizes only rarely, and its mortality is low, but it is associated with significant morbidity. … Show more

“…The expression of CD103 in epithelial skin tumors has hardly been studied. This is surprising since (i) basal cell carcinomas (BCC) [ 91 , 92 , 93 ] and cutaneous squamous cell carcinomas (cSCC) [ 94 , 95 , 96 ] are by far the most common tumors of (especially fair-skinned) humans, (ii) these tumors are usually immunogenic [ 97 , 98 , 99 ], (iii) they often respond to topical and/or systemic immune modulation [ 100 , 101 , 102 , 103 , 104 ], and (iv) their incidence increases greatly upon immunosuppression [ 105 , 106 ]. Moreover, it was already described more than a quarter of a century ago that malignant T cells of cutaneous T cell lymphomas with high CD103 expression migrate preferentially into the E-cadherin-bearing epidermis [ 107 , 108 ].…”

“…BCC appears on sun-exposed parts of the body, especially on the skin of the face and on the nose area [ 3 , 4 ]. The main risk factors for BCC development include ultraviolet light (UV) exposure, light skin type, long-term immunosuppression, male sex, advanced age, and certain genodermatoses [ 5 ]. The stages of BCC onset related to sun exposure are represented in Figure 1 .…”

“…Das Basalzellkarzinom (BCC, basal cell carcinoma) ist mit 75–77 % aller Malignome der Haut die mit Abstand häufigste Hautkrebsart [1, 2]. BCC wachsen langsam, besitzen jedoch durch das infiltrative Wachstum ein hohes Zerstörungspotential für das Gewebe [1]. Prädilektionsstellen sind der UV‐Strahlung ausgesetzte Bereiche, besonders bei Menschen mit heller Haut: Etwa 80 % der BCC sind am Kopf oder Hals lokalisiert [1, 3, 4].…”

Prädilektionsstellen sind der UV‐Strahlung ausgesetzte Bereiche, besonders bei Menschen mit heller Haut: Etwa 80 % der BCC sind am Kopf oder Hals lokalisiert [1, 3, 4]. Werden BCC nicht oder nicht hinreichend behandelt, können sie besonders im Gesicht erhebliche Gewebeschäden verursachen [3, 5].…”
