[Treatment of epitheliomas].
In a period of 6 years the authors had 615 patients with epitheliomas. Squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) was found in 22 of them, meta-typical carcinoma in 2, and basal cell carcinoma (BCC) in the remaining cases. The frequency of application and comparative efficacy of various methods of treatment were appraised. The surgical method was used most frequently--in 84.2% of patients. Cryodestruction prevailed (46.3%) among the surgical methods of epithelioma treatment. Its early results in BCC were favorable in 97% of cases. The frequency of recurrences and metastases was 0.5%. Surgical excision, applied in 31% of patients, was effective in all cases of BCC. In SCC surgical excision is performed in a complex with radiotherapy. The efficacy of combined treatment (surgery + radiotherapy) was about 100%. Generalization of the process was found in only one patient. The other methods of treatment are used much less frequently.
