title: [Metastasizing basalioma of the temporal area or continuous extension? Surgical approach and results].
abstract: By means of histological sections the rare diagnosis of a basalioma of the temporal area with regional metastases in the parotid gland and in the neck could be verified. Subsequently the surgical treatment and the postoperative results are described. The operation consisted of an en bloc excision of the basalioma, exstirpation of the parotid gland and radical neck dissection. Since the tumor had also infiltrated the facial nerve, the nerve had to be sacrificed and reconstructed using the superficial peroneal nerve. In order to obtain immediately a satisfactory esthetic result in the face region, in addition to the facial nerve graft, the corner of the mouth and the eyelids were taken up using solvent dehydrated dura mater and parts of the temporal muscle and its fascia. A face-lifting supported this procedure. The primary closure of the temporal skin defect was successfully performed using a regional skin flap from the scalp.
