Abstrakt: Background: As the use of melanoma antigen recognized by T cells (MART-1) immunohistochemistry (IHC) with Mohs surgery increases for the treatment of melanoma in situ and invasive melanoma, surgeons should be aware of MART-1 staining patterns of incidental lesions often encountered on frozen sections. Lack of this knowledge can lead to unnecessary additional surgery, increased health care costs, and loss of valuable laboratory staff time and resources.
Objective: To characterize the histopathologic features of incidental lesions encountered during Mohs surgery for melanoma. To review key diagnostic and differentiating features on hematoxylin and eosin staining (H&E) and MART-1 IHC of these lesions.
Methods: A comprehensive review of frozen-section histopathology slides from Mohs cases with MART-1 IHC at our institution was conducted from 2021 to 2023.
Results: Incidental benign and malignant lesions were identified and characterized on H&E frozen sections and MART-1 IHC. Although such entities can share MART-1 staining characteristics with melanoma in situ or melanoma, distinguishing characteristics on H&E and lack of histopathologic criteria for melanoma on MART-1 IHC can be used to distinguish these incidental lesions from melanoma.
Conclusion: Staining of frozen sections for Mohs micrographic surgery with H&E and MART-1 IHC together can differentiate common incidental benign and malignant cutaneous lesions from melanoma.
