Pigmented BCC



Age: 65 year
Gender: Male
Site: Chest/ Back
Duration: 2 years
History: Two rounded red plaques with well-demarcated, thread-like pigmented borders about 2 cm diameter  involving the chest and back. Both lesions cured with twice daily applications of Efudix (5 FU) ointment for 8 weeks.
