We found that tumour size and aggressive histology are the strongest indication criteria for MMS. Recurrence and aggressive histology are predictors for extensive subclinical spread but not for two or more rounds of MMS. Evidence-based indications for MMS are necessary to ensure cost-effective management of BCC.

Epidermoid cysts are common benign cysts which occur particularly on the skin of the face, neck and upper trunk. Subconjunctival location of these cysts is very rare and, until today, only seen in patients with Gorlin-Goltz syndrome. Histopathological examination of these cysts show similarities with odontogenic keratocysts, a typical clinical manifestation of Gorlin-Goltz syndrome.
