ABSTRACT

Basal cell carcinoma (CCB) is the most frequent skin cancer worldwide, the most associated risk factor is intermittent exposure to ultraviolet radiation, however, there are unusual presentations such as in the palmar area of the hand. The clinical presentation occurs as erythematous squamous plaques of chronic evolution, not being the most frequent presentation of BCC, which is why in many cases its diagnosis is delayed. The diagnosis is confirmed by histopathology, and complete surgical excision decreases the risk of recurrence. The clinical case and a brief review of the literature of a patient with BCC in the palmar area are presented below.
