Abstract :
Basal cell carcinoma (BCC) is the most common cancer among humans, and the
standard treatment is surgery. Other modalities are reserved as a second line of
treatment. Topical chemotherapy may be used in primary BCC. Systemic chemotherapy
has no role in the primary treatment of BCC, although it may be efficacious in
metastatic cases. We report the case of a patient with persistent recurrent BCC following
multiple surgeries and radiotherapy, who achieved a dramatic response with a cisplatin
and 5-flourouracil chemotherapy regimen.
