Basal Cell Skin Cancer, Version 1.2016, NCCN Clinical Practice Guidelines in Oncology
Open accessAbstract
Basal cell carcinoma (BCC) of the skin is the most common cancer, with a higher incidence than all other malignancies combined. Although it is rare to metastasize, patients with multiple or frequently recurring BCC can suffer substantial comorbidity and be difficult to manage. Assessment of risk is a key element of management needed to inform treatment selection. The overall management of BCC primarily consists of surgical approaches, with radiation therapy as an alternate or adjuvant option. Many superficial therapies for BCC have been explored and continue to be developed, including topicals, cryosurgery, and photodynamic therapy. Two hedgehog pathway inhibitors were recently approved by the FDA for systemic treatment of advanced and metastatic BCC, and others are in development. The NCCN Guidelines for Basal Cell Skin Cancer, published in full herein, include recommendations for selecting among the various surgical approaches based on patient-, lesion-, and disease-specific factors, as well as guidance on when to use radiation therapy, superficial therapies, and hedgehog pathway inhibitors.

Several guidelines indicate Mohs micrographic surgery as the first-choice treatment for cutaneous carcinomas at the ear.
“several guidelines indicate Mohs micrographic surgery (MMS) as the first-choice treatment for cutaneous carcinomas at this site.2, 3, 4”
From Auricular reconstruction after Mohs micrographic surgery: analysis of 101 cases (2021) · cites this paper as [3]
The BCC-A section lists the ear as a high-risk site, and “Mohs Micrographic Surgery or Excision With Intraoperative Frozen Section Assessment” calls MMS the preferred surgical technique for high-risk basal cell carcinoma. The claim extends that recommendation to cutaneous carcinomas generally, while this guideline addresses basal cell carcinoma; its primary-treatment pathway (BCC-3) also lists standard excision as an option, so MMS is not presented as the sole first-choice treatment.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
