Chronic Arsenicosis with Basal Cell Carcinoma of Scalp: A Rare Co-incidence
Arsenic is a natural semi-metallic chemical that is found all over the world in groundwater. The WHO cut-off value for arsenic in drinking water is 0.01 mg/L [1]. Chronic arsenicosis is caused by long term exposure to arsenic compounds via ingestion or inhalation. Basal cell carcinoma is the commonest skin malignancy accounting for upto 80% of all cancers arising from epidermis [2]. Its main modality of treatment is surgery and is generally curative.
