Abstract
Cases of surgical treatment of basal cell skin carcinoma of the lower eyelid are rarely described in the world literature. Perhaps this is due to the search for new non-surgical treatment methods or to the fact that this localization is poorly represented in the total incidence of basal cell skin cancer. However, the operative method, recommended as the main line of treatment by both domestic and foreign clinical recommendations, is still recognized as the most radical and aesthetically acceptable method of treatment. Non-radical treatment of the tumor leads, in turn, to relapses of the disease, to the emergence of systemic metastatic foci due to the lymphogenic and hematogenic spread of tumor cells. In the article we describe the experience of surgical treatment of patients suffering from basal cell skin carcinoma of the lower eyelid of varying degrees of extension.
