Nodular or nodular basal cell carcinoma. Relatively inconspicuous, non-symptomatic, red nodule with a smooth surface (see reflected light image as inlet). The bizarre (tumor) vessels of the basal cell carcinoma become visible in reflected light.

Basal cell carcinoma nodular (detailed picture), characterized by the bizarre "tumor vessels" marked with arrows, which become visible with the incident light technique.

Basal cell carcinoma nodular: probably existing for years, slowly growing, skin-coloured, bumpy, completely painless plaque that slides over the base; the destructive growth is recognizable by the undercut of the hairline (hair destroyed).

Basal cell carcinoma nodular (reflected light microscopy): probably existing for years, slowly growing, skin-coloured, bumped, completely painless plaque, which can be moved over the surface. Bizarre irregular calibre capillary vessels. In the centre vascular-free area.


Nodular or nodular basal cell carcinoma. Relatively inconspicuous, sharply defined, completely asymptomatic, red nodule with a smooth, shiny surface (see detailed image and incident light image as inlet). The bizarre (tumor) vessels of the basal cell carcinoma become visible in incident light.

Basal cell carcinoma, nodular. aggregate of several, skin-coloured, firm, surface-smooth, shiny, completely painless nodules and plaques that can be moved on the base and extend into the eyebrow.

Basal cell carcinoma, nodular: Nodule existing for 3 years, completely without symptoms, size: 2.0x 1.8 cm. Sharply defined. 61-year-old female patient.

Basal cell carcinoma, nodular. nodule persisting for 3 years, not painful, size: 2.5x 1.0 cm. sharply limited.75-year-old patient.



2Basal cell carcinomanodular: Nodule existing for several years, completely without symptoms, size: 2.5 x 3.0 cm. sharply defined. 73-year-old patient. note the bizarre peripheral vessels.

Basal cell carcinoma nodular: Nodule existing for several years, completely without symptoms, size: 2.5 x 3.0 cm. sharply defined. 73-year-old patient. note the bizarre peripheral vessels.

Basal cell carcinoma nodular: Nodule existing for several years, completely without symptoms, size: 2.5 x 3.0 cm. sharply defined. 73-year-old patient. note the bizarre peripheral vessels.

Basal cell carcinoma, nodular. 74-year-old female patient, solitary, continuously growing for 2 years, measuring 1.5 x 1.2 cm, indolent, firm, skin-coloured, covered with telangiectases, rough, knot with a bulging, shiny surface.

Basal cell carcinoma nodular: 72-year-old female patient. solitary, continuously growing for several years, indolent, firm, skin-coloured, covered with telangiectasia, coarse, nodules with a bulging shiny surface. no symptoms.

Basal cell carcinoma, nodular. solitary, 0.8 x 10.8 cm in size, broad-based, firm, painless papule, with a shiny, smooth parchment-like surface covered by ectatic, bizarre vessels. Note: There is no follicular structure on the surface of the papules.


Basal cell carcinoma, nodular. solitary, 1.0 x 1.2 cm large, broad-based, firm, painless nodule, with a shiny, smooth parchment-like surface covered by ectatic, bizarre vessels. Note: There is no follicular structure on the surface of the nodule (compare surrounding skin of the bridge of the nose with the protruding follicles).

Basal cell carcinoma, nodular. 2.5 years of persistent, slowly growing, now 1.8 x 2.3 cm large, centrally ulcerated tumor with telangiectasias in the lower border wall at the right nasolabial fold of a 69-year-old patient.


Basal cell carcinoma, nodular: centrally ulcerated nodular tumor with clear wall at the edge, ulcer not painful, characteristic for the diagnosis "basal cell carcinoma" is the raised, reflecting wall at the edge of the ulcer.


Basal cell carcinoma nodular: Slowly growing, symptomless, surface smooth lump, existing for several years; conspicuous bizarre vascular structure.

basal cell carcinoma nodular: detail enlargement. nodule with smooth shiny surface. bizarre vascular architecture.

Basal cell carcinoma nodular: Slowly growing, symptomless, surface-smooth, red lump that has existed for several years; conspicuous bizarre vessels that run from the edge over the lump.

Basal cell carcinoma, nodular, sharply defined, shiny, smooth tumor interspersed with bizarre "tumor vessels", which are particularly prominent in this nodular basal cell carcinoma and play an important role in the diagnosis.


Basal cell carcinoma, nodular, centrally ulcerated tumor with a clear wall at the edge of the temporal region. Ulcer not painful. Characteristic for the diagnosis "basal cell carcinoma ulcerated" is the raised, reflecting wall of the "ulcer" with the bizarre vascular structures already visible with the naked eye, which run over the wall (see edge region below right).

Basal cell carcinoma, nodular. centrally ulcerated, nonpainful ulcerated nodule in the region of the temple. ulcer not painful. characteristic for the diagnosis "basal cell carcinoma" is the raised, reflecting wall of the "ulcer" and the bizarre vessels.

basal cell carcinoma nodular: centrally ulcerated basal cell carcinoma. the diagnosis is recognizable by the marginal, glassy nodular structures. the centre of the nodule is overlaid by an adherent haemorrhagic crust and thus cannot be assessed diagnostically.

Basal cell carcinoma, nodular, painless conglomerate of 0.1-0.3 cm large, whitish nodules, which have been present for several years and are clearly shiny when the surrounding skin is tightened.

Basal cell carcinoma nodular: bulbous, felted, borderline erosive, white-reddish, firm, painless, hairless lump.



Nodular, extensive ulcerated basal cell carcinoma. since >10 years slowly growing exophytic, non-painful, fleshy tumor which was covered with a compress. marked with arrows, a glassy border wall which is (still) characteristic for advanced basal cell carcinoma.


Differential diagnosis nodular basal cell carcinoma; in this case a primary cutaneous follicular B-cell lynphoma: shiny, taut surface with bizarre vascular structures at the edges; in this case the diagnosis is only histological.



Nodular basal cell carcinoma in Xeroderma pigmentosum: solitary, broadly based, firm, painless, centrally ulcerated nodule. On the edge of the basal cell carcinoma-typical shiny margin. Note: the extensive scarring is a consequence of the underlying disease.
