In a 67-year-old men, on the chest
What to see at dermoscopy:
-blue-gray ovoid nests and blue-gray globules
-structureless areas (erythema)
-fine and arboriform telangectasias
-ulceration
-blue-white veil
Dermoscopy in favor of basal cell carcinoma and histology confirmed diagnosis
In a 54-year-old woman, on the back
What to see at dermoscopy:
-atypical vascular pattern: combination of dotted vessels and short fine telangectasias (circle)
-erythema
Dermoscopy in favor of basal cell carcinoma and histopathology confirmed the diagnosis (superficial subtype)
Comments: Scalvenzi M. et al (2008), identified the presence of erythema, short fine telangectasias and erosions as the main dermoscopic criteria of superficial BCC

-ulceration (white arrow)
-multiple blue-gray ovoid nests (circle)
-scar-like depigmentation and blue-white veil
-black crusts
-erythema
Dermoscopy in favor of basal cell carcinoma and histopathology confirmed the diagnosis (nodular subtype)
In a 58-year-old woman, on the forehead
What to see at dermoscopy:
