Disease relevance of Mohs Surgery

 

High impact information on Mohs Surgery

  • Surgical Pearl: the use of methylene blue temporary tattoos for tissue orientation in Mohs micrographic surgery [6].
  • The formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded tissue technique allows Mohs' surgery to be performed using routine pathology facilities and permits the efficient use of operating room personnel and theatre time [7].
  • A retrospective, controlled study was performed of complications of excisional and Mohs micrographic surgery in 653 patients who were being treated with warfarin or platelet inhibitors or with their medications being briefly withheld [8].
  • Six lesions were treated by Mohs micrographic surgery, and one case was treated with topical 5% fluorouracil [9].
  • Fifty-eight patients participated in a controlled evaluation that compared a transparent film dressing (TFD [Bioclusive]) with a combination of conventional dry gauze dressing (Curity) and antibiotic ointment (Polysporin) in the treatment of fresh skin wounds following Mohs micrographic surgery [10].

Gene context of Mohs Surgery

  • This case demonstrates the variable expression of CD34 antigen by DFSP tumors and emphasizes the need to interpret with caution the results of these immunostains during Mohs surgery [3].
  • Adjuvant cytokeratin staining in Mohs micrographic surgery for basal cell carcinoma [22].
  • OBJECTIVE: Simple yet effective modifications to Mohs surgery and processing may enhance procedural efficiency, ensure proper tissue orientation and tracking, while greatly reducing "recuts." Using the methods described, Mohs specimens no longer need to be incised or excised with any bevel, thus conserving tissue and facilitating closure [23].
  • Rapid skin edge elevation using the OCT compound droplet technique to obtain horizontal microsections in Mohs micrographic surgery [24].
  • RESULTS: Neural involvement was detected in H&E preparations before and during excision of the metastatic nodules by Mohs micrographic surgery [25].
