“…24,34,46,62,88,100,101 Several different types of radiotherapy can be used to treat BCC, including superficial radiation therapy, isotope-based brachytherapy (interstitial or topical contact), and external electron beam radiation. Primary or adjuvant radiation is an effective treatment option for selected patients with BCC, resulting in good tumor control and cosmesis, with the understanding that cure rates may be lower.…”

“…Primary or adjuvant radiation is an effective treatment option for selected patients with BCC, resulting in good tumor control and cosmesis, with the understanding that cure rates may be lower. 23,34,46,62,88,100,101 One RCT demonstrated that in terms of long-term cosmesis, surgery is superior to radiotherapy for primary BCCs of the face smaller than 4 cm. 34 The radiation technique is modified depending on the site, size, shape, and depth of the tumor.…”

“…La tendencia en el tratamiento oncológico de los diferentes tumores en el organismo es ser cada día más conservador, optando por asociar terapias coadyuvantes a la cirugía con el objetivo de extirpar la menor cantidad posible de tejido sano, reducir la morbilidad y los efectos secundarios de los tratamientos 1,4 . Esta tendencia al uso de terapias menos invasivas asociado con el hecho de que los CBC son tumores malignos de crecimiento localizado que metastatizan muy raramente, ha propiciado la búsqueda de tratamientos alternativos a la cirugía, como inmunomoduladores tópicos, terapia fotodinámica, crioterapia, radioterapia, retinoides y quimioterapia con agentes como el 5 fluorouracilo, el cisplatino, o la bleomicina [4][5][6] .…”
