Refining laissez‐faire treatment of periocular tumour defects by exploring the impact of defect localization and geometry on the healing process
Defect geometry is crucial in the healing process and clinical outcomes of periocular defects treated with laissez-faire. Medial canthal defects and proportional lower eyelid defects heal more reliably, while disproportional and large medial canthal defects, as well as cases requiring repeated surgical excisions, pose a higher risk of complications. These findings emphasize the importance of careful patient selection and defect analysis to optimize outcomes.
