asal cell Ca also called rodent ulcer is a relatively benign
form of Cancer when diagnosed and treated early
however it could present late thus necessitating aggressive
surgical approaches or even devastating if further neglected.
The face is the most common site affected and is highly
important due to its privileged position in the human
body. The author presents some different forms of clinical
presentations and thus different techniques adopted which
vary greatly from the early conditions to the advanced ones.
The surgical role varies from simple excision and sutures
to wide excision and local flaps. There is a wide variety
of these flaps suggested and applied by the author. The
advantages of the most popular are discussed. In neglected
cases involving the cranial bones this would necessitate a
craniofacial approach to respect the deep structures affected
for achieving cure and reconstruct an aesthetical accepted
face. Some of these patients are shown with the operative
steps and results obtained. Conclusions are then drawn.
