Background: Although squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) and basal cell carcinoma (BCC) can be easily diagnosed clinically, proper diagnosis is sometimes difficult when based on clinical information alone.
Objective: To know what causes clinical misdiagnosis between SCC and BCC, and evaluate whether dermoscopy can improve diagnostic accuracy.
Methods: Clinical and dermoscopic photographs of inversely diagnosed cases (histologically confirmed BCC with a clinical impression of SCC or ) were randomly presented to six dermatologists and the reasons for each correct or incorrect diagnosis were analyzed.
