  • Title: [Esthetic aspects of excision of basaliomas of the area of the head and neck].
    Author: Höhmann DH, Milewski C, Krieger U, Roede J.
    Journal: Laryngorhinootologie; 1992 Jun; 71(6):311-4. PubMed ID: 1637452.
    Abstract:
    Eighty-four patients with basal cell carcinoma of the head and neck were submitted to surgery. In 75%, infiltration of the reticular dermis or the subcutis was documented. Primary closure of the wound was achieved in only one-third of these patients. In the remaining cases, the defects were closed by local flaps, regional flaps or a microvascular forearm flap. In 86% of the cases, good-to-excellent results were achieved.
