Article Synopsis
  • - The study investigates the relationship between surgical methods (Mohs micrographic surgery vs. wide local excision) and outcomes (recurrence and survival) for Merkel cell carcinoma treatment.
  • - A comprehensive literature search resulted in the inclusion of 19 case series and 12 cohort studies, concluding that there are no significant differences in outcomes between the two surgical options or different excision margins.
  • - Ultimately, the findings suggest that both surgical approaches have similar recurrence and survival rates for Merkel cell carcinoma, indicating that the choice of method may not impact patient outcomes.
