Basal cell carcinoma growth over a nevus sebaceous: treatment of the field canceri- zation with photodynamic therapy
نویسندگان
چکیده
The sebaceous nevus of Jadassohn is a congenital hamartoma that may develop into a malignant cutaneous neoplasia. Photodynamic therapy is used to treat actinic keratoses and superficial or nodular basal cell carcinomas, and the cutaneous field cancerization can be observed using the Wood’s lamp during the performance of the technique. This article describes a case of photodynamic therapy used in the treatment of a basal cell carcinoma, which developed on a sebaceous nevus, where the field cancerization was demonstrated through the use of Wood’s lamp. The procedure is a non-surgical alternative for the treatment of the basal cell carcinoma, with excellent aesthetic outcome. The patient is on clinical follow-up, with absence of recurrence of the neoplasia 18 months after the treatment.
