| الوصف: | Introduction: Basal cell carcinoma is the most common non melanoma skin cancer. It accounts for approximately 80% of all skin cancers. Case report: We presented a 62-year-old patient with a giant, deeply infiltrative, destructive lesion of the head which lasted for 15 years. Microbiological analysis showed contamination, computed tomography (CT) scan showed deep infiltration and bone destruction. The risks of operative treatment were numerous. The treatment was more complicated by infection, infiltrative spreading and the patient's comorbidity. Regardless, we decided on a wide surgical resection with pathohistological evaluation of the resection margins. The patient denied oncological treatment. After 10 years, there were no recurrent tumours. Conclusion: Aggressive surgical treatment is the treatment of choice for giant basal cell carcinoma. In the case of giant locally aggressive and advanced neoplasms, when surgery is not appropriate or not possible, medical treatment becomes oncological. |
