Abstract

Skin cancer remains the most common form of cancer globally, with basal cell carcinoma, squamous cell carcinoma, and melanoma being the primary types. Surgical intervention is a cornerstone in the treatment of skin cancer, offering the potential for complete removal and high cure rates. This article reviews the latest advancements in skin cancer surgery, including minimally invasive techniques, Mohs micrographic surgery, and the integration of reconstructive procedures. We discuss the outcomes associated with these surgical methods, emphasizing the balance between
oncologic control and cosmetic results. Additionally, we explore future directions in surgical oncology, including the role of robotics, personalized medicine, and novel imaging technologies in enhancing surgical precision and patient outcomes.
