Description and Extensions
- Description
- NCI2016_NCI-GLOSS_1602D:Cancer that begins in the lower part of the epidermis (the outer layer of the skin). It may appear as a small white or flesh-colored bump that grows slowly and may bleed. Basal cell cancers are usually found on areas of the body exposed to the sun. Basal cell cancers rarely metastasize (spread) to other parts of the body. They are the most common form of skin cancer.|NCI2016_02D:The most frequently seen skin cancer. It arises from basal cells of the epidermis and pilosebaceous units. Clinically it is divided into the following types: nodular, ulcerative, superficial, multicentric, erythematous, and sclerosing or morphea-like. More than 95% of these carcinomas occur in patients over 40. They develop on hair-bearing skin, most commonly on sun-exposed areas. Approximately 85% are found on the head and neck and the remaining 15% on the trunk and extremities. Basal cell carcinoma usually grows in a slow and indolent fashion. However, if untreated, the tumor may invade the subcutaneous fat, skeletal muscle and bone. Distant metastases are rare. Excision, curettage and irradiation cure most basal cell carcinomas.|MSH2017_2016_08_12:A malignant skin neoplasm that seldom metastasizes but has potentialities for local invasion and destruction. Clinically it is divided into types: nodular, cicatricial, morphaic, and erythematoid (pagetoid). They develop on hair-bearing skin, most commonly on sun-exposed areas. Approximately 85% are found on the head and neck area and the remaining 15% on the trunk and limbs. (From DeVita Jr et al., Cancer: Principles & Practice of Oncology, 3d ed, p1471)|HPO2016_07_04:The presence of a basal cell carcinoma of the skin. [HPO:sdoelken]|CSP2006:malignant skin neoplasm that seldom metastasizes but has potential for local invasion and destruction; clinically it is divided into types: nodular, cicatricial, morphaic, and erythematoid (pagetoid); develops on hair-bearing skin, most commonly on sun exposed areas.|CHV2011_02:a kind of skin cancer|CHV2011_02:a kind of skin cancer|CHV2011_02:a kind of skin cancer|CHV2011_02:a kind of skin cancer|CHV2011_02:a kind of skin cancer|CHV2011_02:a kind of skin cancer|CHV2011_02:a kind of skin cancer|CHV2011_02:a kind of skin cancer|CHV2011_02:a kind of skin cancer
