description BACKGROUNDAs the US population ages, safe surgical procedures are necessary for treatment of cutaneous neoplasms in very elderly patients. OBJECTIVETo determine the incidence of complications associated with Mohs micrographic surgery (MMS) in patients aged 85 and older, and the risk factors that predispose to complications. METHODSA 9-year retrospective chart review of patients aged 85 and older who underwent MMS at our institution between 07/2007 and 11/2016 was performed. Six types of complications associated with scalpel-based cutaneous surgery were recorded, as well as patient, tumor, and repair characteristics. RESULTSThis study included 949 patients totaling in 1683 MMS cases. There were 30 complicationsinfection (N = 11), wound dehiscence (N = 6), hematoma (N = 6), hemorrhage (N = 5), flap necrosis (N = 1), and graft necrosis (N = 1), resulting in an overall complication rate of 1.78%. Independent risk factors associated with a statistically higher incidence of complications were anticoagulant use (odds ratio [OR], 2.78; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.26–6.13; p = .012), extremity location (OR, 2.80; 95% CI, 1.19–6.54; p = .018), greater than 2 MMS stages (OR, 2.43; 95% CI, 1.08–5.46; p = .032), and flap repair (OR, 2.27; 95% CI, 1.05–4.90; p = .036). CONCLUSIONMohs micrographic surgery is a safe procedure for treatment of cutaneous neoplasms in the very elderly.
