Chemosurgery is a method by which cutaneous cancers can be excised under complete microscopic control by the systematic use of frozen sections. The technique consists of three main steps: (1) application of a zinc chloride fixative paste, (2) excision of a layer of fixed tissue, and (3) systematic microscopic scanning of frozen sections cut through the undersurface of the specimens. The procedure is repeated in the cancerous areas until a completely cancer‐free plane is reached. Advantages of the method are unprecedented reliability, conservatism, low operative mortality, excellent healing, and the fact that it extends operability to many patients with cancers too extensive for hope of cure by other methods. Special training is essential for optimal results. Though the method is used by over 50 physicians, more should be trained so that chemosurgery is available in every large population center.

SUMMARY The most satisfactory regime for radiotherapeutic treatment of basal cell carcinoma in this study was ten to twelve daily fractions of 400–500 rad, 5 days a week to a total dose of 4000–5000 rad. This method produced the highest cure rate with the least incidence of radionecrosis and the best cosmetic result. The use of implant methods is retained for lesions in difficult sites, i. e. the inner canthus and the nasolabial folds.
