Abstract

Basal cell carcinoma is the most common type of cancer in Central Europe and has a high medical relevance. Due to its high tendency of recurrence, an important parameter in the planning of therapy is the risk of recurrence. After clinical and histological diagnosis, the majority of tumors are treated surgically, although radiation and topical procedures are also possible therapeutic alternatives in certain constellations. Hedgehog inhibitors, a completely new class of substances, have recently been approved for rare metastatic and locally advanced diseases, thus significantly expanding the range of treatments. This article provides an overview of the current guideline-based diagnosis and therapy of basal cell carcinomas in Germany.
