Abstract

Carcinomas on the scalp have a tendency to recur following traditional treatment. Their management is often difficult because of the extent of the tumor and the unique anatomy of the area. In order to maximize cure rates for complicated carcinomas, Mohs micrographic surgeons and other surgical specialists have formed interdisciplinary treatment teams. Resection of bone, parotid/facial nerve dissection, and neck dissection are often necessary. Interdisciplinary cooperation in the treatment of skin cancer leads to maximal utilization of expertise and is a major advance in cancer treatment.
