Basal Cell Carcinoma and Squamous Cell Carcinoma represent more than 99% of tumors treated by the Mohs micrographic surgeon.

Recent literature with regard to management of these tumors will be reviewed. Example tumors may include desmoplastic trichoepithelioma, intravascular BCC, SCC with perineural invasion, Sebaceous carcinoma, Merkel Cell Carcinoma, Paget's Disease, Atypical Fibroxanthoma, Dermatofibrosarcoma Protuberans, and Lentigo Maligna.
