The affected region becomes more vulnerable immunologically and predisposed to the onset of neoplasms. Basal Cell Carcinoma is the most common sort of neoplasm, nevertheless it rarely metastisizes. Sarcomas are malignant mesenchymal neoplasms, locally aggressive, which can spread. Here is reported an infrequent case of multiple basal cell carcinoma, synchronous to a poorly differentiated pleomorphic sarcoma, both spreading to lymph nodes and arising from tissue compromised by chronic lymphedema. © 2012 by Anais Brasileiros de Dermatologia.899-902engBasal cellCarcinomaLymphedemaSarcomaCD68 antigencytokeratinvimentinagedanemiaaxillary lymph nodebasal cell carcinomabiopsybleedingcase reporthistologyhumanhuman tissueimmunohistochemistrylymphedemamalemetastasispleomorphic sarcomaprotein expressionsarcomaskin ulcerAgedCarcinoma, Basal CellChronic DiseaseFemaleHamartoma Syndrome, MultipleHumansImmunohistochemistryLymphatic MetastasisNeoplasms, Multiple PrimaryArtigo10.1590/S0365-05962012000600013S0365-05962012000600013Acesso aberto2-s2.0-848714228052-s2.0-84871422805.pdf
