Abstract:
Multiple basal cell epithelioma on the face is a rare disease and the lesions are hard to indistinguish from multiple trichoepithelioma. The 15-year-old school girl has been suffered from multiple small pea-sized, slightly waxy appearing skin lesions on the face for 4 years. She has no history of arsenic ingestion; irradia tion and previous dermatoses. Physical examination and X-ray films (chest, mandibule and skull) showed no pathological findings. Biopsy findings revealed basal cell epithelioma cells.
