“…Greek farmers with a sixfold increase in photodamaged skin have been recorded with an increased presentation of aggressive subtype BCC and less superficial BCC . A recent Canadian study also found nodular subtype BCC to be threefold more likely and aggressive BCC 2.4 times more likely on head and neck sites . We found a stronger head and neck site association with an increased shift towards a higher incidence of superficial combined with both nodular and aggressive BCC.…”

This association may be due to longer duration and or more intense Australian solar exposure.…”

“…Most commonly nodular, then the superficial and infiltrative types of BCC are seen 1,16,17 . In our study, our cases had nodular (83.6%), superficial (9.6%), basosquamous (2.6%), and morpheaform (2.6%) subtypes of BCC similar to the literature.…”

Objective: Our aim in this study is to define the histopathological subtypes, body site distribution, and incidence rates of single or multiple of BCCs. The study is conducted on patients from a single institution in Istanbul which has a migrant-receiving population reflecting that of the country overall. Method: We retrospectively analyzed data concerning 896 cases of BCC seen between 2014 and 2018. Data about patient demographics (age and sex), tumor diameter,its anatomic localization, histological type, presence of ulceration, lymphovascular/perineural invasion, and single or multiple tumor formations were retrieved from both the hospital's automated system and archived records of the pathology clinic. Results: Our univariate analysis showed that the patients' age, tumor size, and tumor multicentricity were all significantly related to their gender (p=0.011, p=0.001, and p=0.021, respectively). Further, age, male gender, and tumor size were all significantly related to tumor multicentricity (p=0.003, p=0.021, and p=0.001, respectively). BCC was most commonly found in male, and the diameters of the BCC tumors were also larger in male patients. Multiple BCC was more frequently seen in older and male patients, and the tumors had larger diameters in these groups. The nodular type of BCC was the most frequently seen type in all age groups. Conclusion: As our study is the first BCC study that has the greatest number of cases in Turkey and as Istanbul reflects the population of Turkey, it is important for the data of BCC cases in Turkey.

Histopathological and patient-related characteristics of basal cell carcinomas of the head and neck influencing therapeutic management

et al. 2018

The authors hypothesize that histopathological characteristics of basal cell carcinomas of the head and neck (BCCHN) have changed over time and the correlation of BCCHN localization and histological tumour type can help improving the number and quality of necessary therapeutic interventions. Information of 222 patients with 344 BCCHN was gained. Descriptive measures were compared to prior studies to prove whether or not characteristics of basal cell carcinomas or patients have changed over time. Afterwards descriptive measures were correlated with number of conducted operations to evaluate if tumour localization, histological tumour type and number of operations depend on one another. Aggravating factors which lead to a higher number of operations were older age, greater size of BCCHN, adjacent elastosis, the localizations eye, ear and nose and histological tumour types morpheaform and nodularulcerated. In comparison to earlier studies characteristics of BCCHN and patients showed positive developments because of grown awareness of BCCHN. Furthermore, our correlations demonstrate that therapeutic results of BCCHN treatment are continuously improving. Nevertheless, treatment of aggressive morpheaform BCCHN in combination with distinctive patient characteristics still needs improvement.
