“…The tumor size is positively correlated with age. The distance to the center of the tumor from the medial area is greater when the diameter is larger 5. In a large series of 56 patients with orbital invasion by periocular BCC, visible or palpable mass was found in all the patients.…”

“…In a Spanish study, the recurrence rate after surgery with histologically clear resection margins was 5% 5. The rate of recurrence of BCC depends on the location, size, extent of infiltration, the histological type and the first treatment.…”

“…In contrast, the frequent involvement of the lower lid may be the result of light reflection by the cornea onto the lower lid margin. Other factors such as chemical or physical irritation of tears may do more harm to the lower lid 4,5,8,13. BCCs with orbital invasion or aggressive histology occur more frequently in the medial canthus (53.6%–56.2%) compared to the lower eyelid (20.3%–35.7%), upper eyelid (4.7%–7.1%) or lateral canthus (3.6%–18.7%) 14…”

“…A cure rate of about 95% is achieved after treatment, depending on the localization, size and pathological variety of the BCC. Following surgery, the relapse rate is 1%–5% per year 3,4,5,21,22…”

“…The involvement of the eyelid margin makes surgical reconstruction more difficult. The smaller the size of the tumor, the simpler the reconstruction, and better functional and esthetic results are obtained 5. A randomized study compared MMS to radiotherapy in 347 patients with BCC of <4 cm size in the face.…”

Basal cell carcinoma (BCC) is a common malignant tumor throughout the world. One of the known risk factors of BCC is intense exposure to ultraviolet radiation. More than 50% of BCCs of the eyelid initially occur on the lower lid. The gold standard of diagnosis of BCC is histopathology. Treatment options for BCC consist of surgery, vismodegib, radiotherapy and imiquimod. Surgical excision using Mohs micrographic surgery or wide surgical excision with frozen section margin control is the first consideration for treatment of periocular BCC. Eyelid reconstruction should be carefully considered as both function and esthetic outcome in patients are important after clear excision of tumors. Exenteration is considered in the case of extensive orbital invasion or high-risk aggressive tumors in order to reduce the rate of recurrence.
