Abstract EN

Basal cell carcinoma is the most commonly seen nonmelanoma skin cancer which is rarely encountered in the childhood period.

An 11-year old child was admitted to our clinic due to an erythematous and a slightly pigmented lesion with a 3×4 cm diameter on his posterior scalp.

Macroscopically, the lesion was excised with a 10 mm safety margin.

Pathologic examination revealed a basal cell carcinoma.

No symptoms or signs of a syndrome were observed both in the patient and his family.
