title: [2 basaliomas of the lower leg in a 60-year-old female--one of them simulating ulcus cruris].
abstract: We report on a 60-year-old female patient with an ulcer on the left lower leg, which was treated for 2 years without success. Histologically, a biopsy specimen showed a partly fibrotic and partly solid basal cell epithelioma. When all of the patient's skin was examined, a small skin-colored nodule was found on her right lower leg that histologically also turned out to be a basal cell epithelioma. The patient had no history of predisposing factors like exposure to arsenic or actinic skin damage. Our case is compared with the literature and briefly discussed.
