dc.description.abstractThis chapter focuses on local flaps used in surgical management of cutaneous squamous (SCC) and basal cell carcinoma (BCC) of the face. Nonmelanoma skin cancer (NMSC) is the most common type of skin cancer in the United States with an increasing annual incidence. Worldwide, the incidence of skin cancer is also increasing. Surgery is the most effective treatment for NMSC of the head and neck excision or Mohs micrographic surgery (MMS). Cases of local basal 4 or squamous skin cancers 5 can be divided into low- and high-risk based on clinical and pathologic characteristics (Tables 1, 2). In addition to risk of recurrence, the best treatment plan is also dependent on the type of skin cancer, location, and patient’s comorbidities and expectations.
