La chirurgie micrographique de Mohs dans la prise en charge des carcinomes basocellulaires

MMS is a safe and reproducible surgical technique made possible by solid team work. It is adapted for the treatment of BCC with a high risk of recurrence. The cosmetetic and functional results are quite satisfactory. The recurrence rate at 5 years is 10 times less than with other methods of treatment. The additional time required for this surgery be put in balance with the number of tumors for which a second intervention would have been necessary if conventional surgery had been used. All procedures were performed under local anesthesia, and none or the patients required a second intervention.
