Last edited: 4/10/2026

Overview

Basal cell carcinoma (BCC) is the most common type of skin cancer. Recurrence following surgical excision can occur, necessitating further management.

Diagnosis

No information provided in the abstracts.

Management

  • Follow-up procedures for BCC can be conducted via teledermatology or face-to-face visits 1.
  • Teledermatology has been found to lower costs and be satisfactory for both patients and professionals 1.
  • Special Populations

    No information provided in the abstracts.

    Key Recommendations

  • Teledermatology follow-up for BCC may be more efficient than traditional hospital follow-up 1. (Evidence: Moderate)
  • Further work is needed to establish evaluation protocols and procedures for teledermatology in dermatology to measure key variables and demonstrate evidence quality 1. (Evidence: Expert opinion)
