MOHS Fellowship
One in every three diagnosed cancer is a skin cancer; therefore, dermatologists should be at the forefront of leading techniques for the care of skin cancer patients. One such technique is Mohs Micrographic surgery (MMS) also known as margin-controlled excision; a specialised surgical technique that aims to completely remove the skin cancer and leave as much healthy skin tissue as possible.
While largely diffused in countries like the US and Australia, the availability of Mohs Micrographic Surgery in Europe is very limited. The EADV aims to expand the number of European Mohs surgeons and offer the best possible care for skin cancer patients.
