Brief summary
REGESMOHS (Registro Español de cirugía de Mohs) aims at describing effectiveness of Mohs surgery, and patient, tumor and technique factors related to adverse events and tumor recurrence. REGESMOHS is a prospective cohort, including all patients considered for Mohs surgery in participating centers. All consecutive patients are included. The only exclusion criteria are being under 18-years-old or legally incompetent. Pre-planned follow-up is as required by common clinical practice, but at least once a year for the study period.
Interventions
A surgical technique used primarily in the treatment of skin neoplasms, especially basal cell or squamous cell carcinoma of the skin. This procedure is a microscopically controlled excision of cutaneous tumors either after fixation in vivo or after freezing the tissue. Serial examinations of fresh tissue specimens are most frequently done.
