O carcinoma basocelular ou CBC é a doença maligna mais comum em humanos. Acredita-se que os CBCs surjam de células pluripotenciais da camada basal da epiderme ou, menos comumente, do folículo piloso. Os CBCs geralmente ocorrem em áreas de exposição crônica ao sol e se apresentam como pápulas, placas ou nódulos avermelhados de crescimento lento na cabeça e no pescoço, embora a variante superficial esteja frequentemente localizada no tronco. Os CBCs freqüentemente ulceram e criam crostas. Embora raramente metastatizem, podem causar destruição local significativa e desfiguração se negligenciados ou tratados inadequadamente, principalmente se forem do subtipo esclerosante ou infiltrativo. | |||

Basal cell carcinoma or BCC is the most common malignancy in humans. It is believed that BCCs arise from pluripotential cells in the basal layer of the epidermis or, less commonly, hair follicle. BCCs typically occur in areas of chronic sun exposure and present as slowly enlarging reddish papules, plaques or nodules on the head and neck, although the superficial variant is often located on the trunk. BCCs frequently ulcerate and become crusted. Although they rarely metastasize, they can cause significant local destruction and disfigurement if neglected or inadequately treated, particularly if of the sclerosing or infiltrative subtype. | |||
