Image Comments:

This basal cell carcinoma is in a most demanding surgical location.The chances for having complications during and after surgery are great. The surgery in this case should be performed by an accomplished and experienced oculoplastic surgeon.The photo was taken by Dr. Caccamise in 1966.
