TECHNIQUE

Table 150.5 provides a flow sheet for performing MMS and Fig. 150.7 depicts the procedure. (Also see Video 150.1)

Fig. 150.7 Mohs micrographic surgery technique.A Preoperative appearance of a basal cell carcinoma on the nose. B Debulking of the tumor via curettage. C Beveled excision (with scalpel at a 45ยฐ angle) of all clinically evident tumor plus a small margin of normal-appearing skin. D Placement of skin notches at 3, 6, 9 and 12 oโ€™clock positions in the specimen and adjacent surrounding tissue. E Orientation of the excised specimen on an anatomic card. F Specimen sectioned into two pieces and flattened. G Marking of the cut margins of the specimen with red and blue inks. H Matching Mohs map and tissue specimen ready for histologic preparation. A red mark on the gauze denotes the location of the first specimen with the second specimen always placed below. Different systems are used but precision is common to all.
