Clinical variants of BCC include nodular, morphea type, superficial and polypoid. Tattoo reactions are histologically diverse and can be classified in three main classes: 1-allergic, granulomatous, and lichenoid reactions; 2- inoculation and infectious lesions; 3- coicidental lesions. The patient reported here was a 72-year-old woman with an erythematous fungiform lesion on her upper lip just on the tattooing line for 2 years, confirmed to be BCC on routine histopathology exam.Tattooing might be responsible for the developement and unusuall presentation of BCC in this case.
