Abstract:
The optimal distance from tumor to incision varied according to the cellular type of the tumor. In each case the cutting edge of the excised tissue was checked with frozen sections for cancer cells. Multiple neighboring skin flaps in full thickness raised from the periosteum were used to cover the large defects (the smallest defect is 25 20mm, the largest one is 75 65mm). The results showed that good cosmetic results were obtained in all cases, visual function was preserved in 35 of the 36 patients, and no recurrence of the tumor was found in 5 years' follow-up. One patient with squamous cell carcinoma that disseminated to nasal cavity and sinuses had a complication of meningitis after the operation,and it was cured with proper treatment.
