Basal cell carcinoma (BCC) has several subclassifications, including pigmented basal cell carcinoma. In our clinical experience, we have found that pigmented basal cell carcinoma itself has multiple subtypes which can overlap with traditional basal cell carcinoma subclassifications. In this letter, we argue for the subclassification of pigmented basal cell carcinoma, as either superficial, nodular, or morpheaform. We believe further subclassification of pigmented BCCs may reveal important therapeutic and prognostic differences which could make an impact on the morbidity and mortality of this condition for those affected, many of whom are skin of color patients that are already disproportionately affected by health disparities related to skin cancer.
