Background: Many therapies are available to treat low-risk superficial basal cell carcinoma (lr-sBCC), which may complicate the shared decision-making (SDM) process. Objective: To assess the SDM process of patients and physicians when deciding lr-sBCC therapy as well as the factors that may influence the SDM process. Methods: A prospective, multicenter cohort study was conducted over 18 months, from October 2018 to April 2020, in 3 tertiary university hospitals and 1 private hospital. Results: This study included 107 patients. There was a weak positive correlation between Shared Decision-Making Questionnaire-Patient version (SDM-Q-9) and Shared Decision-Making Questionnaire-Physician version (SDM-Q-Doc) (Spearman’s correlation coefficient [rs] [105] = 0.21; P = .03). Most patients (71%) chose a nonsurgical treatment after the SDM process. Patients with higher satisfaction with the SDM had lower decisional conflict and decisional regret (P 80 years had higher rates of significant decisional conflict. When evaluating treatment decisions, the highest median score for decisional conflict (22, IQR [16]; P = .01) was observed among patients who chose a surgical excision. Limitations: Patients may have self-selected to participate. Conclusion: This study suggests that some patients may prefer less invasive therapies for lr-sBCC. The SDM process may reduce decisional conflict and decisional regret. |
