Periocular basal cell carcinoma recurrence following surgical treatment: Safe surveillance time.

Background: To report the rate of primary periocular BCC recurrence following surgical excision in low-risk and high-risk BCCs, and to propose long term follow up guidelines.

Methods: Retrospective case series of primary BCC treated with surgical excision (Mohs micrographic surgery [MMS], wide local excision [WLE] or fast paraffin excision) who have histologically-confirmed BCC subtype and histologically-measured tumour clearance margins.

Results: 77 patients (78 eyelids) were included.

Pleomorphic lipoma of the orbit: a case series and review of literature.

Objective: Pleomorphic lipomas are rare benign tumors that can resemble a variety of malignant soft tissue tumors on histologic examination. Six cases of patients with orbital pleomorphic lipoma, one of which was proven to be bilateral, are presented.

Design: Retrospective, noncomparative, interventional case series with clinicopathologic correlation.
