9 Management of Primary Eyelid Cancers |
123 |
radiation therapy is an option. Radiation therapy has been used as a primary treatment modality for a variety of eyelid malignancies, including Kaposi sarcoma [37], angiosarcoma [16], Merkel cell tumor, SCC, and BCC. As mentioned above, globepreserving surgery along with postoperative radiation therapy can, in some cases, prevent the need for an orbital exenteration.
A number of other local treatment modalities have been used to treat eyelid malignancies. Photodynamic therapy has been reported in the treatment of eyelid BCC and SCC. Cryotherapy can be used to treat BCC, sebaceous carcinoma, and SCC.
In some cases, observation is the most appropriate course of management. As with any medical condition, the patient’s age, social situation, and personal preferences are important factors to consider.
9.3.5 Follow-up
All patients with eyelid cancers require long-term follow-up, even after definitive treatment. The length of follow-up depends on the type of tumor. For BCC excised with negative margins, 5 years of follow-up is usually sufficient. Patients with more serious cancers, such as melanoma or sebaceous gland carcinoma, may require a longer follow-up period.
