Abstract

An unusual case of basal cell carcinoma of the nipple from a 66‐year‐old woman is presented. It is important to differentiate this lesion from other nipple‐areolar tumors, especially Paget's disease. This report reviews the literature and adds a case that represents the third reported instance of this tumor of the female nipple.
