Second intention healing offers a simple, cost-effective reconstruction method after Mohs surgery for select cases. This approach ensures tumor control and yields excellent functional and cosmetic outcomes when wound healing factors are managed.

Area of Science:

  • Dermatology
  • Surgical Oncology
  • Wound Healing

Background:

  • Second intention healing, a traditional method in Mohs micrographic surgery, has declined in popularity.
  • Concerns include prolonged healing times and potential functional alterations in critical anatomical areas.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To review the principles, applications, and outcomes of second intention healing after Mohs surgery.
  • This review covers indications, contraindications, complications, and benefits of this wound management technique.

Main Methods:

  • A literature review was conducted on studies evaluating second intention healing as a reconstructive option.
  • The focus was on its application in specific post-Mohs surgery scenarios.

Main Results:
