RESUMO
BACKGROUND: Basal cell carcinoma shows a wide spectrum of clinical and histologic appearances. A distinct tumor variant with follicular infundibulocystic differentiation is recognized, and there are only a few reports on its clinical presentation and management. OBJECTIVE: To report a case of multiple infundibulocystic basal cell carcinomas with a unique unilateral presentation. METHODS: A clinical history was obtained. Photographs were taken, and punch biopsies were performed. RESULTS: An 83-year-old Caucasian female presented with multiple unilateral, asymptomatic, skin-colored, dome-shaped papules around the right mouth for 11 years without apparent change. Punch biopsies revealed findings typical of infundibulocystic basal cell carcinoma. CONCLUSIONS: A patient with clinically indolent multiple unilateral infundibulocystic basal cell carcinomas is described. Given the location of these multiple lesions, standard treatment modalities for basal cell carcinomas would have significant cosmetic and functional implications. A management approach with clinical follow-up and surgical intervention only for changing lesions is discussed.
