ABSTRACT

Collision or combined tumors are a rare histological finding which can be defined as the presence of two or more neoplasias in the same biopsy. Frequently both tumors are benign or hace low malignant potential. We present the case of a basal cell carcinoma and an intradermal nevus clinically diagnosed as a dysplastic nevus.
