A malignant tumour on the face.
A slow-growing malignant tumor of the face, usually at the edge of the eyelids, lips, or nostrils. Rodent ulcers occur in middle age or later; if untreated, they destroy skin muscle and bone but they do not spread to other parts of the body. Individuals persistently exposed to hot sun may develop the disease and it is a complication of chronic radiodermatitis. It can be treated by surgery or radiotherapy.
A chronic form of basal cell carcinoma, the most common form of skin cancer.
A basal cell carcinoma that has caused extensive local invasion and tissue destruction, esp. on the face. The usual sites are the outer angle of the eye, near the side and on the tip of the nose, and at the hairline.
A type of cancer that invades to varying depths, primarily targeting the face, neck, and scalp. Its growth is notably slow and it has a tendency to bleed easily upon contact, often leading to early detection before significant harm is caused. Treatment with radium plates or through surgical removal can lead to a cure.
