Use of the double-bladed scalpel in peripheral margin control of dermatofibrosarcoma protuberans. BACKGROUND: The double-bladed scalpel previously has not been cited in the published literature for use in Mohs micrographic surgery. OBJECTIVE: To allow for maximum tissue conservation and greatest possible intraoperative efficiency for peripheral margin control of a massive tumor. METHODS: We describe the use of the double-bladed scalpel during Mohs surgery for peripheral margin control of a large dermatofibrosarcoma protuberans (DFSP). RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: While not necessary for the majority of routine Mohs cases, utilization of the double-bladed scalpel may be timesaving, especially when used for peripheral margin control of a massive tumor.
