Key Points

This research aims to assess androgen receptor expression levels across different histological subtypes of basal cell carcinoma.
Analyzed 60 cases of adenoid, nodular, and superficial BCC subtypes diagnosed at Balıkesir University.
Evaluated androgen receptor expression using immunohistochemical staining ratios under light microscopy.
Categorized positive cells into four groups based on staining ratios (0-100%).
Found a statistically significant difference in AR expression distribution among BCC subtypes (p<0.001).
Observations indicated that adenoid BCC had different AR expression compared to nodular and superficial types.
Immunohistochemical evaluations revealed varying positive cell percentages across different BCC subtypes.
