Carcinoma basoescamoso avançado de órbita: relato de caso. Arquivos Brasileiros de Oftalmologia, São Paulo, v. 72, n. 6, p. 819-821, 2009.0004-2749http://repositorio.bc.ufg.br/handle/ri/17617Basosquamous carcinoma is a rare tumor with features of both basal cell and squamous cell carcinoma, linked by a transition area. It is a rare epithelial neoplasm with a tendency for local recurrence. It also has a high incidence of distant metastasis, a condition that differentiates it from the basal cell carci- noma. In this case, the slow course of the infiltrative lesion associated to patient non-compliance to treatment led to a poor prognosis.porAcesso AbertoCarcinoma basocelularRelatos de casosCarcinoma basoescamoso/diagnóstico;Basal cell carcinomaCarcinoma, basosquamous/ diagnosisCase reportsArtigo10.1590/S0004-27492009000600015
