INTRODUCTION: The Spanish registry of Mohs micrographic surgery started collecting data in July 2013. The aim of the registry is to report on the use of this technique in Spain and the outcomes achieved. In the present article, we describe the characteristics of @entity1 and the @entity5 treated. MATERIAL AND METHODS: This is a prospective cohort study of @entity1 treated with Mohs micrographic surgery. The participating centers are hospitals where at least one intervention of this type is performed each week. All @entity1 considered for Mohs micrographic surgery in participating centers are included in the registry except those who have been declared legally incompetent. RESULTS: Between July 2013 and October 2014, data from 655 @entity1 were included in the registry. The most common @entity5 involved was @entity1491 , and the most common histological subtype was infiltrative @entity1491 . Most of the @entity5 treated were located on the face or scalp, and the most common site was the nose. Almost 40% of the @entity5 treated were recurrent or persistent, and preoperative @entity5 size was similar to that reported in other European studies and in Australia. In total, 45.5% of @entity1 had received previous surgical treatment. CONCLUSION: The findings are similar to those reported in other studies, and the data collected are useful for assessing whether the results of studies carried out elsewhere are applicable in Spain.
