Cierre inmediato no siempre es lo mejor

Some Patients Undergoing Mohs Procedures For Skin Tumors May Benefit From Delayed Reconstruction, Study Indicates.

MedPage Today (10/26, Lyles) reported researchers found in a retrospective study that "for select patients undergoing Mohs procedures for skin tumors, delaying reconstruction enhanced viability of full-thickness skin grafts and composite grafts and decreased postoperative complication rates." The findings were published in JAMA Facial Plastic Surgery. In an accompanying editorial, Jeffrey Moyer, MD, and Shi Yang, MD, both of the University of Michigan Medical School, wrote that the study's results "would seem to be counterintuitive because the prevailing belief is that an increased interval between [Mohs micrographic surgery] and repair has little meaningful effect on the ultimate reconstructive outcome or might actually be detrimental rather than beneficial."
