Abstract
Basal cell carcinoma is the most common cancer of the skin, and the majority of those afflicted are elderly Caucasians with sun-damaged skin. Knowledge of the indications for and contraindications to the various treatment modalities is required in order to choose the proper treatment for each patient. Only long-term follow-up can detect recurrent or new lesions.
