Abstract

Basal cell carcinoma is the most common malignancy of man. The use of the topical imiquimod 5% cream offers a noninvasive, nonsurgical, and an effective option for the treatment of primary types superficial basal cell carcinoma (sBCC). We present a case series of patients who used imiquimod 5% cream with good therapeutic effect. The medication had a good tolerability profile and there were no ocular adverse events. Imiquimod 5% cream could be considered the first choice treatment for BCCs in older patients who are poor candidates to surgery.
