Journal of the American Academy of Dermatology, 1998
Mohs micrographic surgery (MMS) is a specialized type of minimal marginal surgery that offers cure rates superior to other options in the treatment of contiguous skin cancers in selected settings. Developed by Dr. Frederic E. Mohs, the technique originally required in situ tissue fixation before excision.

Mohs Micrographic Surgery for Melanoma
Dermatologic Clinics, 1989The results of multiple investigators have confirmed the value of Mohs surgery in the treatment of melanoma. In addition, these studies have contributed to our understanding of the biologic behavior of melanoma. The success of Mohs surgery confirms that melanoma grows in a contiguous fashion before it spreads systemically.

The Laryngoscope, 1989
Mohs micrographic surgery is a procedure used to treat recurrent or difficult skin cancers by the sequential removal of thin, saucerized layers of tissue. These excised layers are sectioned on a microtome and examined microscopically, and maps are prepared to delineate areas of residual tumor as well as normal, uninvolved tissue.

I would like to begin this article by trying to determine what exactly it is that sets Mohs micrographic surgery (MMS) apart from any other surgical procedure carried out for the expressed purpose of removing a neoplasm, whether primary or recurrent at the local site. Because most practitioners of MMS now admit freely that the distinctiveness of MMS is

Mohs micrographic surgery pearls
Seminars in Cutaneous Medicine and Surgery, 2004Mohs micrographic surgery has evolved over the last 60 years from fixed-tissue chemosurgery with secondary intention healing to fresh-tissue surgical excision utilizing advanced histotechnology and reconstructive techniques. This evolution has occurred while preserving the fundamental characteristics of Mohs surgery: microscopically controlled tumor ...

Mohs micrographic surgery has been highly successful in treating skin cancers that grow in a contiguous manner. The technique requires removal of involved tissue in thin layers and histographic mapping to pinpoint residual tumor. This process is repeated until all of the tumor is resected.

Mohs Micrographic Surgery for Melanoma
Dermatologic ClinicsMohs micrographic surgery (MMS) is a tissue-sparing surgical technique that is the standard of care for treatment of several cutaneous malignancies. Current US and international guidelines recommend wide local excision as the first-line surgical therapy for noninvasive melanoma, and use of MMS may be appropriate for melanoma-in-situ, lentigo maligna ...
