description One of the most common types of skin cancer is basal cell carcinoma, which is rarely seen to metastasise. This tumour has many histological subtypes, one of which is the rarely seen basosquamous carcinoma. Basosquamous carcinoma is considered an aggressive cancer with an increased risk of metastases.
