41 International Perspective of Mohs Micrographic Surgery: Europe

training, MMS practice, MMS outcomes, audits, cost and outcomes analysis, patient related outcomes, and high quality clinical research.

There remains much to be agreed and achieved in further developing MMS across Europe, but there is little doubt that MMS is having a significant impact in many countries despite the many challenges. MMS in Europe is likely to continue to develop and flourish.

Micrographic Surgery: East Asia

Satoru Aoyagi

Abstract

Overall skin cancer rates are much lower in East Asian populations than in Caucasian populations. Pigmented basal cell carcinoma (BCC) is the most common type, and surgical excision with wide margins is the standard treatment for BCC in most East Asian countries. Due to differences among countries in insurance systems and surgical approaches, Mohs micrographic surgery (MMS) is an uncommon procedure in most Asian countries. Surgical excision is widely used in the major parts of East Asia because of its effectiveness and simplicity. MMS has been reported to be a successful treatment by particular institutions in Korea and Taiwan. However, MMS is not routinely available in most dermatologic units in East Asia. Intraoperative histological evaluation to control surgical margins is widely used instead of MMS for high-risk skin cancer. Complete histological margin control using a double-bladed scalpel may be easily applied to standard intraoperative frozen section evaluation in many institutions where MMS is difficult to perform. It is far less time-consuming and can be easily used by surgeons with existing systems, even in East Asian countries.

Summary: Characteristics of Skin Cancers

in East Asia

Overall skin cancer rates are much lower in East Asian populations than in Caucasian populations.

Pigmented basal cell carcinoma is the most common type of skin cancer, and squamous cell carcinoma has reportedly been on the rise on sun-exposed parts of the body during the past quarter century in Asians as well as Caucasians.
