Abstract
Perianal basal cell carcinoma (BCC) is a rare occurrence, with limited documented cases in the existing literature. The precise etiology contributing to its onset remains inadequately elucidated. Macroscopically, perianal BCC often exhibits atypical features, potentially leading to diagnostic challenges. Histopathological examination plays a crucial role in distinguishing BCC from other cutaneous lesions in this region. Despite its localized nature, perianal BCC generally carries a favorable prognosis characterized by a gradual progression. However, diligent follow-up is essential to mitigate the risk of recurrence. Our clinical observation highlights a noteworthy yet uncommon manifestation. The patient, a 64-year-old male, presented with a persistent perianal lesion evolving over a three-month period. Symptoms included intermittent bleeding and purulent discharge, exacerbating the clinical picture. A biopsy was subsequently performed, confirming the diagnosis of basal cell carcinoma. Following this, the patient underwent external beam radiation therapy as part of the treatment regimen.
