Basal Cell Carcinoma of the Left Nasal Wall: A Case Report and Review of Clinical Management

Abstract

Among all the cutaneous malignancy basal cell carcinoma (BCC) is the most prevalent, mainly affecting sun-exposed regions of head and neck. Nasal involvement presents significant reconstructive and cosmetic challenges because of complex anatomical as well as aesthetic prominence. Hereby, we are reporting a his to pathologically confirmed case of fibroepitheliomatous variety of basal cell carcinoma involving left nasal wall in a 70year old male presenting with a slowly enlarging ulcero -proliferative lesion associated with intermittent bleeding. Wide local excision with adequate margins followed by local flap reconstruction achieved satisfactory oncologic and cosmetic outcomes. This case highlights the importance of early diagnosis, histopathological confirmation, and appropriate surgical management in preventing local tissue destruction and recurrence.
