nodular basal cell carcinoma

nodular basal cell carcinoma
the most common type of basal cell carcinoma, usually seen on the face as one or several small, waxy, translucent nodules with rolled edges around a central depression; these may be ulcerated, crusted, or bleeding and may spread laterally or invade deeply. Two subtypes are micronodular and noduloulcerative basal cell carcinoma.
