Basal Cell Carcinoma: A Brief Review of Histopathological Types

10.5281/zenodo.8412496 Basal cell carcinoma (BCC) is the most prevalent form of cancer in the globe. The occurrence of BCC is the result of a complex interaction between genetic and environmental factors. BCC's clinical and histopathological characteristics can vary depending on the tumor's histological subtype, ranging from low-risk tumours such as pigmented, superficial, and nodular tumours to high-risk types such as the basosquamous subtype with sarcomatoid differentiation, micronodular, infiltrating, sclerosing, and morphoeic tumours. This paper aims to provide an overview of the histopathological types of basal cell carcinoma.
