Abstract: 【Abstract】 Basal cell carcinoma (BCC) is the most common malignant skin tumor. It is slow-growing and less likely to metastasize, but the high-risk subtype can destroy tissues and organs, and even endanger patients′ lives. Based on the recent domestic and international literature and guidelines, and combining with the current status of diagnosis and treatment of BCC in China and multidisciplinary expert opinions, this article focuses on clinical manifestations, diagnosis, risk assessment and treatment of cutaneous BCC, aiming to form an expert consensus on the diagnosis and treatment of cutaneous BCC in China and provide a reference for standardized diagnosis and treatment in clinical practice.

Key words: Carcinoma, basal cell, Diagnosis, Treatment, Expert consensus
