  • Title: Margin Analysis: Cutaneous Malignancy of the Head and Neck.
    Author: Dyalram D, Caldroney S, Heath J.
    Journal: Oral Maxillofac Surg Clin North Am; 2017 Aug; 29(3):341-353. PubMed ID: 28709533.
    Abstract:
    This article focuses only on margin analysis of the cutaneous malignancy of the skin. It discusses basal cell carcinoma, squamous cell carcinoma, and cutaneous melanoma. The management of the neck and distant disease are beyond the scope of this article, but it answers what is the appropriate surgical margin when excising these skin tumors, whether frozen sections are accurate for the analysis of these tumors, and treatment algorithm and rationale for a positive resection margin.
