Basal cell carcinoma (BCC) is the most common type of skin cancer, arising from the basal cells of the epidermis. It is primarily caused by prolonged exposure to ultraviolet (UV) radiation, especially in fair-skinned individuals. BCC typically presents as a slow-growing, pearly or nodular lesion on sun-exposed areas. Although it rarely metastasizes, it can cause significant local tissue damage if left untreated, making early diagnosis and management important.
