Basal cell carcinoma (BCC) is the most common skin cancer¹. Among the risk factors for its development are exposure to ionizing and non-ionizing radiation, some chemicals, and previous scars.² However, the most important factor is exposure to ultraviolet radiation, which explains the higher incidence of this neoplasm in photo-exposed areas.¹ BCC in unexposed areas is uncommon. The purpose of this report is to describe a case of recurrent BCC in the vulva, to demonstrate the importance of dermatological examination in unusual areas, and to report the application of Mohs micrographic surgery.

Acral amelanotic melanoma is rare and can mimic many entities, such as eccrine poroma, squamous cell carcinoma, plantar wart, and chronic ulcers. Due to the variety of possible differential diagnoses, it is a challenging and frequently late diagnosis. Dermoscopy features can help in early diagnosis. The dermatologist should keep this diagnosis in mind when faced with a pink, progressively growing, irregularly shaped lesion, mainly if located on the hands and feet.
