Abstract

We reoport a case of multiple basal cell carcinoma in a 51-year-old male who have taken a herb medication for right hemiplegia during 30 years. The patient had a 15-year history of the black colored, ulcerated nodules on left forehead and erythematous, protruded masses on back. Also, he had a 6-year history of black colored, ulcerated nodules on right temporal area of scalp and brownish, flat plaques on anterior chest, Biopsy specimens from lesions revealed typical histopathologic findings of the basal cell carcinoma. Wide excision with graft was done. One year later, he was expired due to lung carcinoma.
