Abstract
This large prospective series of BCC managed by MMS is characterized by a high percentage of high-risk tumors. Most tumors were located in the mid-facial area and the histologic subtype was mainly infiltrating or nodulocystic. That previously recurrent tumors were larger and demonstrated a more extensive subclinical extension compared with primary tumors emphasizes the importance of initial tumor eradication with margin control.
