Comment on ‘An additional dermoscopic clue in basal cell carcinoma of the lower limb: the purpura-like pattern’
We examine the diagnostic implications of the newly described purpura-like dermoscopic pattern in lower-limb basal cell carcinoma. We discuss its overlap with non-neoplastic vascular lesions and highlight the need for histopathological correlation and integration into validated diagnostic frameworks.
