Close and positive margins in non-melanoma skin malignancies of the head and neck. What to do in patients over 75 years of age? A preliminary study.

CONCLUSIONS: In the Authors' opinion the low tendency to recur that NMSC show in people older than 75 years might validate, at least in this age group, an "economic" surgical approach and a watchful attitude. Larger numbers are needed to assess and possibly validate this strategy, especially for the SCCs. PMID: 29963799 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
