[Surgical treatment of basal cell epitheliomas of the eyelids (author's transl)]. 1980

P Banzet, and O Geissmann

The authors report 48 cases of basal cell epithelioma of the eyelids, either superficial or deeply invasive, and review the surgical treatment of these lesions. Certain basic principles of treatment are emphasized: the importance of early detection, necessary for simple, non-mutilating excision; the need to ensure immediate complete exeresis; the fact that eradication must be total without consideration for the reconstructive procedures to follow. Reconstructive surgery must always respect the structure of the eyelid in order to ensure a good esthetic and functional result.
