This study aims to analyze the literature on periocular basal cell carcinoma, identify research trends, and offer insights into future research areas in this field to assist clinicians and researchers. 903 publications on periocular basal cell carcinoma were collected from the Web of Science Core Collection database. We assessed the contributions from various countries, institutions, journals, and authors, and performed network analysis using Excel, VOSviewer, and R Studio to represent the prominent areas of research visually. The country with the highest number of publications and citations in this study was the United States of America, with 250 publications, 5917 citations, and the highest H-index of 44. Ophthalmic Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery is the leading journal. The UTMD Anderson Cancer Center had the highest number of publications, accounting for 43, or 4.76% of the total. Selva D from the University of Adelaide, Australia, is the top author with 26 publications, and 751 citations. Targeted therapy for PBCC-related pathways has been a hot topic in recent years. This study using bibliometrics seeks to explore the patterns and focal points of research and analyzes publication patterns, key research areas, influential authors, and prominent journals in periocular basal cell carcinoma during the last 2 decades.
