Subdermal basal-cell carcinoma.
A case of recurrent basal-cell carcinoma at the mandibular ramus presented clinically with a subdermal nodule. The patient had previously been treated with aggressive curettage and electrodesiccation which had penetrated through the dermis. The authors postulate that either incomplete extirpation of the neoplasm with the curet or iatrogenic deep implantation of the tumor during the procedure may have led to the presentation of the recurrence as a subdermal nodule.
