Abstract

Basal cell carcinoma (BCC) is the most common human malignant neoplasm. It has a slowly progressive nature and a locally invasive behavior. Both genetic predisposition and exposure to environmental risks are involved in its pathogenesis. An ever-increasing annual incidence is observed. Multiple BCCs may be seen in some syndromes such as nevoid basal cell carcinoma syndrome (NBCCS), also known as Gorlin–Goltz syndrome. The occurrence of multiple, concurrent, non-syndromic BCCs is rare. Herein, we present a concise report of an observation of multiple, non-syndromic BCCs involving a hypopigmented patch on the forehead in an adult Afghani patient.
