Background: Non-melanoma skin cancer can cause considerable morbidity when located on the eyelids and periocular skin. Basal cell carcinoma is the commonest periocular malignancy and although metastases are extremely rare, local invasion can cause significant and sometimes severe morbidity. Interferons may provide a nonsurgical approach to the management of these tumors. The aim of this work was to evaluate retrospectively, the effect of a formulation containing IFNs alpha2b and gamma in synergistic proportions (HeberPAG) on patients with periocular NMSC. Methods: The patients were identified from the data base from Department of Peripheral Tumors at “National Institute of Oncology and Radiobiology” in Havana; Dermatological Department at “Hermanos Ameijeiras” and “Enrique Cabrera” Hospitals; and policlinics from ru..
