title: Recognition and treatment of recurrent basal cell carcinoma.
abstract: The recognition and treatment of recurrent basal cell cancer presents a diagnostic as well as a therapeutic problem. While recurrences are often masked by previous surgical efforts, there are definite clinical features that warrant suspicion and subsequent biopsy. Adequate therapy can come only with accurate recognition and aggressive treatment using microscopical control.
