Description
Treatment of tumors of skin and subcutaneous tissues of the head and neck mainly follows the treatment guidelines for other locations on the body, with some exceptions. An update will be given on disease staging, surgical margins, and possible adjuvant therapies for common skin and subcutaneous tumors.2,3 In contrast to several other parts of the body, wide surgical margins are less often possible or acceptable for head & neck tumors in the face of patient morbidity and prognosis. This requires careful patient work-up, treatment planning, and adjuvant therapies in selected cases. Examples of straight forward surgical cases as well as more advanced reconstructive procedures will be presented (Figure 5 and 6).| Period | 12 Apr 2019 |
