We have compared to types of surgery to assess which one leaves the smaller surgical defect.
Patients with a clinical diagnosis of a nodular basal cell carcinoma of less than 1 centimetre and 1 centimetre away from eyes, nose and ears were either randomized to undergo Mohs Micrographic Surgery or standard surgical excision. After the tumour had been removed the defect was measured.
