背景:隆突性皮肤纤维肉瘤(DFSP)是一种浅表肉瘤,其特征是具有触手样边界的浸润性生长。Mohs显微手术(MMS)是DFSP的首选治疗选择。然而,MMS中不精确的边界定位导致所需的Mohs层数增加和手术时间延长.高频超声对DFSP具有优异的组织识别能力,允许精确的边界标记。
方法:在本研究中,我们回顾性分析了湘雅医院近5年来14例经MMS术前超声定位及三维重建的DFSP病例。我们还回顾了以前关于MMS用于DFSP治疗的研究。
结果:发现术前超声定位后患者的平均Mohs层数为1.57,范围为1至3,少于先前报道的1.86层,范围从1到12。这有效地减少了所需的Mohs层的数量。
结论:通过利用术前高频超声确定DFSP的边界和深度,可以有效减少Mohs层的数量,导致病理检查工作量减少,更短的操作时间,并降低患者的手术风险。超声成像数据可用于三维重建,使经验较少的Mohs外科医生能够对病变的形态和浸润程度有视觉理解。这有助于制定最佳的手术计划,平滑学习曲线,并促进MMS的广泛采用。
BACKGROUND: Dermatofibrosarcoma protuberans (DFSP) is a superficial sarcoma characterized by infiltrative growth with tentacle-like borders. Mohs micrographic surgery (MMS) is the preferred treatment option for DFSP. However, the imprecise boundary localization in MMS leads to an increased number of Mohs layers required and a longer surgery time. High-frequency ultrasound has excellent tissue recognition capability for DFSP, allowing for precise boundary marking.
METHODS: In this study, we retrospectively analyzed 14 cases of DFSP treated with MMS using preoperative ultrasound localization and three-dimensional reconstruction at Xiangya Hospital over the past 5 years. We also reviewed previous studies on MMS for DFSP treatment.
RESULTS: It was found that the average number of Mohs layers for patients after preoperative ultrasound localization was 1.57, ranging from 1 to 3, which was less than the previously reported 1.86 layers, ranging from 1 to 12. This effectively reduced the number of Mohs layers required.
CONCLUSIONS: By utilizing preoperative high-frequency ultrasound to determine the boundaries and depth of DFSP, the number of Mohs layers can be effectively reduced, leading to less workload for pathological examination, shorter operation time, and reduced surgical risks for patients. Ultrasound imaging data can be used for three-dimensional reconstruction, enabling less experienced Mohs surgeons to have a visual understanding of the morphology and extent of infiltration of the lesions. This aids in developing optimal surgical plans, smoothing the learning curve, and promoting the wider adoption of MMS.
