Basal Cell Carcinoma Arising from a Port Wine Stain

Objective: In this study, we present the diagnosis, clinical approach, and treatment process of BCC developing from the PWS background. Material and Methods: This study is a case report of a patient who applied to our clinic in March 2023. Results: Most of the BCCs appear in people over the age of 50 and those who have a long exposure to the sun. It’s possible to cure it with local wide surgical excision and adjuvant treatment. It has been documented in case reports that this phenomenon arises from PWS, which is a congenital vascular malformation. Conclusions: Topical or radiation therapy that we use while treating various skin diseases can also increase the risk of BCC. The following presentation outlines the approach and treatment algorithm for BCC developing on the former known PWS.
