The rampant basal-cell carcinoma: report and lessons of a case.

The case of a patient with a basal-cell carcinoma over a clavicle that escaped early treatment and became widespreadand deeply burrowing is recounted. It was first treated by radiotherapy, seemed to have been cured thereby, but two years later showed recurrence. It was then treated by Mohs' fresh-tissue technique which cleared the skin but exposed invaded bone and uncertain depth of involvement below. Radical extirpative surgery was subsequently attempted on two occasions, but when invasion was found to have involved major vessels in the neck, further treatment had to be abandoned. Some lessons of the case are discussed.

Mycosis fungoides: retrospect, current understanding, and prospect.

After a brief historical view of mycosis fungoides from Alibert's time to the present, the authors go on to detail the average biologic course of mycosis fungoides, give a protocol for investigating patients with disease as extensively as modern means permit, review past and present staging schemes, and finally, review treatment as practiced today and speculate upon what may yet be practiced to the better in the future.
