Advanced dermatosurgery session

Description: The advanced dermatosurgery session will explore various aspects of skin cancer, focusing on challenges, innovative treatments, and the impact of pharmaceuticals on skin cancer development. Advanced dermatosurgery session is aimed at dermatologists, oncologists, researchers, and clinicians who wish to deepen their understanding of skin cancer pathogenesis and management. Topics covered will include the establishment of Mohs micrographic surgery in resource-limited settings, the role of nitrosamines in carcinogenesis, and advanced surgical techniques for skin cancer treatment.

The advanced dermatosurgery session will provide healthcare professionals with comprehensive insights into the latest research and clinical practices related to skin cancer. Attendees will learn about the challenges in implementing advanced surgical techniques in different healthcare settings, the potential carcinogenic effects of commonly used medications, and innovative surgical approaches to complex skin cancer cases.
