“Basal cell carcinoma of the hand: A systematic review and meta-analysis of incidence of recurrence”

“…The following reasons prompted the exclusion of 59 articles: improper methods (systematic review, review article, and letter to editor), n = 12, no outcome of interest ( n = 19), the full text could not be located ( n = 14), the specific location of BCC was not stated ( n = 12), included non-hand BCC patients ( n = 2). Thirty-five studies were case reports, 18 , 19 , 20 , 21 , 22 , 23 , 24 , 25 , 26 , 27 , 28 , 29 , 30 , 31 , 32 , 33 , 34 , 35 , 36 , 37 , 38 , 39 , 40 , 41 , 42 , 43 , 44 , 45 , 46 , 47 , 48 , 49 , 50 , 51 , 52 2 studies were case series, 53 , 54 1 study was a prospective cohort analysis, 55 and the remaining studies were retrospective cohort studies.

Palmar Basal Cell Carcinoma in Darker Skin Tone Patient: A Case Study

“…Although BCC can develop in any skin type, it predominantly affects individuals with lighter skin tones, such as Fitzpatrick skin types I and II, and occurs less frequently in those with darker skin (1,2).

In numerous instances, certain factors that increase the likelihood of developing palmar BCC have been identified.…”
