Basal Cell Carcinomas (rodent ulcers or BCCs) – Advice

Basal Cell Carcinomas are a type of skin cancer which grows very slowly, but are better removed.

They can be cut out, treated by radiotherapy or sometimes by applying cream.

The best choice of treatment depends on where they are on the body and how large and thick they have become.

We can advise on treatment but patients with suspected Basal Cell Carcinomas must be sent to the hospital for examination.  Treatment at the hospital may be necessary.
