Abstract/OtherAbstract:
|
We present three patients who experienced late, severe bleeding from the superficial temporal artery (STA) following uncomplicated removal of basal cell carcinoma (BCC) from the temple. This is a common site for BCC and the risk of damage to the temporal branch of the facial nerve and the STA are well known. However, delayed bleeding as described in these individuals is potentially dangerous but poorly reported. |
