What Is Mohs Surgery And How Is It Performed?
The term “Mohs” refers to Dr. Frederic Mohs, Professor of Surgery at the University of Wisconsin, who developed this surgical technique in the 1930s. With the Mohs technique, Dr. Feinstein, board certified in Mohs surgery, will precisely identify and remove the entire tumor while leaving the surrounding healthy tissue intact and unharmed. This technique involves removing the skin cancer in stages, one tissue layer at a time. It is performed under local anesthesia and in the comfort of our office. Once a tissue layer is removed, its edges are marked with colored dyes, and a map of the specimen is created. The tissue is then processed onto microscope slides by a Mohs histotechnician. These slides are carefully examined under the microscope by Dr. Feinstein so that any microscopic roots of the cancer can be precisely identified and mapped. If cancer cells are seen, an additional tissue layer is removed only in areas where the cancer is still present, leaving normal skin intact. This saves as much normal, healthy skin as possible.
