basal cell carcinomaterm type: main entry term
part of speech: noun
number: singular
reliability code: 9
definition: skin cancer that arises from the basal cells of areas of the epidermis exposed to sunlight including the face, head, neck, arms, hands, and back. It is the most common and least lethal form of skin or other cancers, since it is very slow growing. It appears either as a small, nodular bum that is raised from the surrounding skin and has a pearly quality or as a scar-like patch on the skin. Its primary treatment is surgery but it can also be treated with radiation therapy, topical chemotherapy and mohs' micrographic surgery. (en)

definition: cáncer de piel que afecta a células de la capa basal de epidermis localizadas en zonas expuestas al sol expuesta al sol como el rostro, cabeza, cuello, brazos, manos y espalda. Es el más frecuente y el menos mortal de los tumores cutáneos, debido a su crecimiento lento. Comienza bien con la aparición de pequeños nódulos de aspecto nacarado que van solapándose y aumentando de volumen o con una mancha con aspecto de cicatriz. Para su tratamiento, se suele recurrir a la extirpación quirúrgica, a la radioterapia, a la quimioterapia tópica y la cirugía micrográfica de Mohs. (es)
