Basal cell carcinoma occurring at the site of a strawberry hemangioma.
A twenty-seven-year-old white woman presented with a basal cell carcinoma at the former site of a strawberry hemangioma. The strawberry hemangioma had been treated in infancy with dry ice. The lesion spontaneously regressed and left no visible scar. To our knowledge, this is the first reported association of basal cell carcinoma and strawberry hemangioma.
