Summary : We report on a case of a 61‐year‐old woman with a giant polypoid BCC, measuring 7.1 × 5.0 × 2.2 cm, on the genital region (the pubic area). The histopathological features of this BCC interestingly showed fibroepithelioma of Pinkus with cornification, and merging with nodular BCC with extensive cornification (so‐called keratotic BCC). The giant BCC with features of fibroepithelioma of Pinkus is exceedingly rare. |
