Abstract Definitive radiotherapy is a curative and noninvasive treatment modality for cutaneous squamous cell carcinomas of the midface when surgery has an impact on function and cosmetics. Volumetric modulated arc therapy provides optimal dose coverage for complex‐shaped tumors without compromising adjacent organs at risk.
