Basillaarimurtumaan

Basillaarimurtumaan, also known as basal cell carcinoma, is a type of skin cancer that develops from the basal cells found in the deepest layer of the skin. It is the most common form of skin cancer, accounting for approximately 80% of all skin cancers. Basillaarimurtumaan is typically slow-growing and rarely metastasizes, meaning it does not spread to other parts of the body. However, it can be locally invasive and may cause significant cosmetic and functional issues if left untreated.

The primary risk factors for basillaarimurtumaan include prolonged exposure to ultraviolet (UV) radiation from the sun, particularly during childhood and adolescence. Other risk factors include a history of skin cancer, fair skin, light eyes, and red or blond hair. The condition is usually diagnosed through a physical examination and, if necessary, a biopsy.

Treatment options for basillaarimurtumaan depend on the size, location, and depth of the tumor. Small, superficial tumors may be treated with topical creams, curettage, or cryotherapy. Larger or more invasive tumors may require surgical excision, radiation therapy, or a combination of these treatments. Regular skin examinations and sun protection measures are crucial for preventing and managing basillaarimurtumaan.
