Basal cell carcinoma of the scrotum: an important but easily overlooked entity

Abstract

Basal cell carcinoma (BCC) is the most common skin cancer worldwide [1]. In Germany, 82/100.000 inhabitants are yearly diagnosed with BCC [2]. Since chronic exposure to UV-light is the major risk factor for the development of BCC, the tumor is rarely seen in non-sun-exposed anatomical sites such as the genital area [1]. So far, only a few case reports or small case series have been published about BCC in this location, the pathogenic mechanisms underlying the development of scrotal BCCs are unknown.
