Basal cell carcinomas (BCCs) are the most common form of cancer. The treatment of BCC can be surgical or topical for the low-risk subtypes. Topical treatments used for BCC are imiquimod and photodynamic therapy (PDT). Ingenol mebutate could provide a fast and easy topical therapy for BCC. Data regarding the treatment of BCC with ingenol mebutate are still limited. The investigators propose a pilot study to investigate the efficacy of 1 or 2 courses of ingenol mebutate 0,05%, on superficial and nodular BCC
