Otolaryngol Clin North Am. 1993 Apr;26(2):215-30.

Abstract

The periocular midface is a complex anatomic region in which the spread of cutaneous malignancies is determined not only by the tumor pathology but also by adjacent natural anatomic barriers. The resulting management considerations when treating malignancies in this region are discussed in this article.
