Location

Location

Tumor location can be subdivided into three areas: high risk, medium risk, and low risk (Fig. 29-1). High-risk areas (H) include the โ€œmask areasโ€ of the face (eyelids, eyebrows, nose, lips, chin, ear, periauricular skin, and temples), genitalia, hands, feet, nail units, ankles, and nipples or areola. Medium-risk areas (M) include the head and neck areas (cheeks, forehead, scalp, neck, and jawline) and pretibial surface. Low-risk

areas (L) include the trunk and extremities, excluding the areas included in areas H and M. Under the appropriate-use criteria, all SCC and BCC (except primary actinic keratosis with focal SCC in situ) are appropriately treated by Mohs if located in the H area. All skin cancers in the M area are considered appropriate, except for small superficial BCCs equal to or less than 5 mm in size and primary actinic keratoses with focal SCC in situ. MMS is typically reserved for larger, recurrent, or more aggressive tumors on L areas.

High-risk areas (H) include the โ€œmask areasโ€ of the face (eyelids, eyebrows, nose, lips, chin, ear, periauricular skin, and temples), genitalia, hands, feet, nail units, ankles, and nipples or areola. Medium-risk areas (M) include the head and neck areas (cheeks, forehead, scalp, neck, and jawline) and pretibial surface. Low-risk areas (L) include the trunk and extremities, excluding the areas included in areas H and M.
