Abstract
Mohs micrographic surgery is presented as a rational surgical management approach for thin malignant melanoma. Advantages of the Mohs micrographic surgery fresh-tissue technique include tissue conservation, low local recurrence rates, and outpatient reconstruction. It is likely that in the future many physicians and patients will choose Mohs micrographic surgery for the surgical treatment of thin malignant melanoma.
