Skin Cancer - Basal Cell Carcinoma (BCC)





Skin Cancer - Basal Cell Carcinoma (BCC)

BCC is a malignant epithelial cell tumor that begins as a papule (a small, circumscribed, solid elevation of the skin) and enlarges peripherally, developing into a crater that erodes, crusts and bleeds. BCC originates in the basal layer of the epidermis, the lowest layer of skin.
