Eighteen years of experience in Mohs micrographic surgery and conventional excision for nonmelanoma skin cancer treated by a single facial plastic surgeon and pathologist

Abstract: This study demonstrates that: 1) MMS and CE are safe in terms of recurrence rates in NMSCs; 2) MMS can be performed adequately by an experienced facial plastic surgeon in close collaboration with a group of pathologists; and 3) the advantage of MMS is that resection defects can be minimized in important aesthetic and functional areas, such as the nose and eyelid, possibly facilitating the reconstruction.

“…Duration of follow-up varied between the studies. One study had a mean follow-up period of less than two years (16 months), with local recurrence of 1.8% of surgically excised SCCs of the head and neck region 18. In those studies with mean follow-up between two and five years (736 patients), recurrence ranged from 0% to 13.0%, with a pooled estimate of recurrence of 5.0% (95% confidence interval 2.3% to 8.3%, I 2 =62%) 14…”

“…Nasal dysfunction or an unsatisfactory aesthetic outcome may occur after reconstruction of multilayered nasal defects. Although the reconstruction of superficial tumors with skin defects can also be challenging, in this study we only investigate deep infiltrating and multilayered tumors [17,18].…”
