Management of advanced cancers of the external nose.
Advanced carcinoma of the external nose is almost always associated with prior inadequate therapy. The first principle, therefore, in managing cutaneous malignancies of the nose is to achieve adequate tumor-free removal at the initial treatment. Recurrent carcinoma of the nose may require either hemirhinectomy or total rhinectomy to achieve tumor control.
