INTRODUCTION: Basal cell carcinoma (BCC) is the most common malignant tumor in human. Nonmelanotic skin cancers make a major health problem through the world. This study was designed to investigate the epidemiology of BCC in Kurdistan province from 1998 to 1999.MATERIALS & METHODS: The population under study in this descriptive research included patients with BCC who was diagnosed between 1998 to 1999.

The INCIDENCE RATE of BCC was 9 per one hundred thousand. 63% of cases were urbanite and the rest was rural. Only 3 cases had a positive history of BCC in their first family. 17 cases had experienced the tumor recurrence in the same area. Anatomically, nose was involved in 76 cases (65.8%). Mean age of the patients was 59.6 (SD=14.6) and the most of BCC cases were belong to 60-69 years old age group.CONCLUSION: This study showed that NECK and HEAD BCC is a major health problem in the province. With respect to the age of the patients we suggest periodical study to reveal the risk factors of the disease in the province.
