Abstract：Objective To investigate the characteristics of multiple superficial basal cell carci-noma.Methods The clinical data from 6 patients with multiple superficial basal cell carcinoma were retrospectively analyzed.Results The mean age of the patients was 71.66 years,and the median course of disease was 2 years.Patients with lesions on the exposed sites accounted for 83.33％(5/6).Skin lesions often presented as erythemas or plaques,with erosions,scabs,and ulcers on the surface.Pathological examination showed that 2 cases(33.33％)were complicated with other subtypes of BCC,and the coincidence rate of clinical and pathological diagnosis was 33.33％.Conclusions Multiple superficial basal cell carcinoma is more common on the head of the elderly,and skin lesions present as erythemas and plaques with erosion and crust.It can be easily misdiagnosed in clinic.The diagnosis can be confirmed by histopathological examination.A histopathologic feature of this disease is accompanied by other pathological subtypes.Correct un-derstanding of this disease is beneficial for early diagnosis and timely treatment.
