Joint 8th Research Priority - What is the role of wide local excision (extra skin taken around the scar) for melanoma and lentigo maligna in reducing recurrence? #skincancer #melanoma @LindAlliance @UK_DCTN @bopssnews @PCDSUK @Surgery_Trials @SkcinCharity
Joint 8th Research Priority - What excision margins (margin of normal tissue removed around the skin cancer) give the best balance between scarring and cure for different skin cancers? #skincancer #dermatology @LindAlliance @UK_DCTN @Surgery_Trials
Research Priority No. 9 - What are the best ways to measure outcomes after skin cancer surgery? (e.g. scar appearance, patient experience, pain). @UK_DCTN @Surgery_Trials @LindAlliance #skincancer #research
Research Priority No. 10 - How does Mohs surgery (a specialist technique to confirm cancer clearance before repairing the wound) compare to standard removal with immediate or delayed repair? @UK_DCTN @Surgery_Trials @LindAlliance #skincancer
Just a quick update! The top 10 skin cancer surgery priorities have now been decided and we will soon be revealing one each day starting on Monday 27th! Thank you to all the patient, carers and clinicians who helped us on this journey :) @LindAlliance @UK_DCTN #skincancer
