Abstract
We report two cases of basal cell carcinoma arising in the perianal region, which seemed vary rare. Case1 : An 82-year-old woman had noticed a perianal eruption with irritation 2 years ago. A 40×25 mm sized blackish flat nodule was located on the left side of her anus. Case2 : A 63-year-old woman requested examination of her perianal eruption with bleeding on defecation a few months following surgical therapy for basal cell carcinoma on her nape. There was a 10×8 mm sized blackish flat nodule with waxy gloss on the left side of here anus. Histopathological findings of both cases revealed features of solid basal cell carcinoma. The tumors were resected simply, and at present, there has been no evidence of local recurrence or metastasis.[Skin Cancer (Japan) 2012 ; 27 : 56-59]
