Basal Cell Carcinoma Historical Perspective
- In 1827, Jacob Arthur, an Irish ophthalmologist, reported a cutaneous difficult-to-eradicate lesion. He coined the term "rodent ulcer". Rodent ulcers are now known as an ulcerating basal cell carcinoma.[1]
- In 1900, Edmund Krompecher, a German physician, identified the features of the rodent ulcer as an epithelial carcinoma.[1]
- The number of cases of basal cell carcinoma doubled between 1970 and 1986.[1]
