Abstract

Optimal cosmetic and functional results are achieved through the appropriate selection of treatment modality and meticulous attention to technique in the treatment of skin cancers of the head and neck. A multidisciplinary approach is required in the more difficult cases. Adequate histologic analysis of margins and assessment of adverse prognostic features are crucial in the selection of therapy.
