[To assess the effectiveness of treatment methods for patients of different age groups with basal cell cancer of the skin of the nose and ears].

The relevance of the problems of diagnosis and treatment of skin cancer is currently determined not only by the high incidence rate, but by the existing difficulties in differential diagnosis and treatment with traditional methods. For localizations of basal cell skin cancer (BCSC) that are "inconvenient" for treatment, such as the external auditory canal, auricle, and wing of the nose, treatment is associated with certain difficulties and the possible appearance of a cosmetic defect, therefore, when choosing a treatment method, the anatomical features of these organs are taken into account. It has been determined that the effectiveness of treatment for primary BCSC of the nose and auricles is higher than recurrent one, and among the various treatment methods, the most effective and radical is the surgical method. The immediate results of treatment of BCSC in the form of PR by surgical method were 86.7%, which is statistically significant compared with other types of treatment (p < 0.05). Long-term treatment results with the surgical method are also higher (77%) compared to other methods, which is also statistically significant (p < 0.05).
