The 100 recurrences were treated by these same modalities, except that five were treated with Mohs' chemosurgery. Following re-treatment, almost half (47) recurred a second time. This inordinately high failure rate after treatment of recurrent basal cell epitheliomas would indicate that such lesions are more difficult to… CONTINUE READING
