Metastatic features of basal cell carcinoma

Basal cell carcinoma is a malignant tumor of skin origin, originating from basal cells in the skin layer. Basal cell carcinoma is more likely to occur in the elderly and requires surgical removal, which does not require radiation therapy. Basal cell carcinoma mainly presents as local recurrence without metastasis, of course, if the removal is complete. Therefore, basal cell carcinoma is not prone to distant metastasis.
