Mohs micrographic surgery for skin cancers: A 10 year - single-center series of 548 patients treated by formalin-fixed tissue Mohs surgery assessing the impact of reduced margins

Résumé

AimOnly few robust studies specify the indications of Mohs Surgery techniques in skin tumors. The aim of this work was to carry out a review of almost 10 years of experience, assessing the impact of reduced margins on reconstruction, and proposing a management algorithm in the light of the literature.Patient and methodsAll the records of patients having benefited from a Mohs technique in our center were retrospectively compiled from January 2011 until January 2020. A formalin-fixed tissue Mohs surgery was used. An impact assessment of reduced margins was made both on the excisional surface but also on the improvement of the reconstruction.Results548 patients were included. Complete tumour clearance was achieved with one surgical stage in 71% of cases. The excisional surface of tumours located in the periorbital and nasal areas was significantly more often reduced compared to other areas (P = 0,020). The improvement of the reconstruction was deemed significant in the periorbital and nasal areas; as well as for tumours located on limbs and trunk linked with Dermatofibrosarcoma management.ConclusionThis study underlines the interest of assessing the clinical relevance of reducing margins depending on the tumor location. Our single-center experience feedback on a large series allows to clarify Mohs technique indications by means of a literature review.
