We report the case of a senior patient, presenting with two cutaneous tumours in which the clinical and dermoscopic examination pointed towards a basal cell carcinoma. Ultrasound revealed highly vascularised tumours and elastography showed increased rigidity. Histological examination of both lesions following complete resection was consistent with squamous cell carcinomas. The distinctive feature of this case consists of the complex non-invasive diagnostic imaging of the tumour morphology, performed in real time, revealing aspects compatible with highly proliferative malignant tumours. This case emphasises the importance of ultrasound diagnosis in a multi-disciplinary approach for better and more predictable results.

“…underlying structures (orbital invasion, PNI), additional imaging tests, such as CT or MRI may be required to accurately assess the extent of the tumor and the presence of metastatic spread [107,124e126]. MRI is indicated for subtle intracranial disease, perineural spread [119], and imaging of tumor invasion in surrounding soft tissue [124,126]. CT scan and PET-CT are excellent techniques for the detection of metastatic involvement in distant organs [126] (Fig.…”

“…Therefore, high-risk tumors may require radiologic imaging for optimal management ( Table 6 ). When there is concern for bony invasion, computed tomography (CT) should be employed [ 107 , 108 ]. Likewise, if there is concern for soft tissue or perineural involvement, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) should be performed [ 107 , 108 ].…”

Non-melanoma skin cancers (NMSCs) are the most common malignancy worldwide, of which 99% are basal cell carcinomas (BCCs) and squamous cell carcinomas (SCCs) of skin. NMSCs are generally considered a curable diseases, yet they currently pose an increasing global healthcare problem due to rising incidence. This has led to a shift in emphasis on prevention of NMSCs with development of various skin cancer prevention programs worldwide. This article aims to summarize the most recent changes and advances made in NMSC management with a focus on prevention, screening, diagnosis, and staging.
