In this study we report the results of using Mohs' micrographic surgery (MMS) to treat 228 basal cell carcinomas (BCCs) in both a teaching and a district general hospital. The criteria for case selection and the 5-year recurrence rate of 3.8% are comparable with figures from the U.S.A. Our experience shows that high cure rates in difficult and, especially, recurrent tumours are obtainable using MMS in both a teaching and a district general hospital setting. Such treatment should be more widely available in the U.K. particularly as the incidence of BCCs is rising.
在本研究中,我们报告了在一所教学医院和一所地区综合医院使用莫氏显微外科手术(MMS)治疗228例基底细胞癌(BCC)的结果。病例选择标准以及3.8%的5年复发率与美国的数据相当。我们的经验表明,在教学医院和地区综合医院环境中,使用MMS在治疗困难尤其是复发性肿瘤方面可获得高治愈率。这种治疗方法在英国应更广泛地应用,特别是鉴于基底细胞癌的发病率正在上升。
