Jason Y1 - 2021 N1 - T2 - The Atlas of Emergency Medicine, 5e AB - Basal cell carcinoma (BCC) is the most common nonmelanoma skin cancer. BCC can present anywhere but is most common on sun-exposed areas. The typical lesion begins as a pearly papule with telangiectasias (nodular BCC). The lesion may ulcerate and bleed. Other forms of BCC include superficial BCC (pink, scaly plaque with pearly border), pigmented BCC (appears as a nodular or superficial BCC with dark brown to black center), and morpheaform BCC (appears as a rapidly expanding scar).
