Abstract

Background: There is growing evidence that Mohs micrographic surgery (MMS) is the treatment of choice for dermatofibrosarcoma protuberans (DFSP).Objective: This study retrospectively compared the recurrence rates of DFSP after MMS with those after wide surgical excision; results at the Mayo Clinic and in the world literature: were evaluated. In addition, preoperative tumor sizes and postoperative defect sizes after MMS were compared to determine whether MMS conserved more normal tissue than wide surgical excision.Methods: The medical records of 84 patients with DFSP who had been treated at the Mayo Clinic were reviewed. They were categorized into two treatment groups: MMS and surgical excision.Results: Fifteen patients with DFSP who underwent MMS had follow-up data available; one of these patients had local recurrence (recurrence rate, 6.6%; average duration of follow-up 40 months). Thirty-nine patients had wide excision, four of these patients had local recurrences and one had pulmonary metastases (recurrence rats, 10%; average duration of follow-up, 36 months). A review of the world literature revealed neither local recurrences nor metastases in the 11 studies in which DFSP was treated with MMS. Overall, including our results, the average recurrence rate of DFSP after MMS was 0.6% (range, 0% to 6.6%) and the total recurrence rate was 1.6% (1 of 64). Including our series, DFSP was treated with wide excision in 15 studies; the average recurrence rate was 18% (range, 0% to 60%) and the total recurrence rate was 20% (100 of 489). In eight published studies, DFSP was surgically resected with undefined or conservative excisional margins; the average recurrence rate was 43% (range, 26% to 60%) and the total recurrence rate was 44% (140 of 317). A surgical margin of 2.5 cm to deep fascia was required for complete clearance of all tumors treated with MMS. Twenty-two percent of tumors were removed with a 0.5 cm margin, 50% with a 1.0 cm margin, 67% with a 1.5 cm margin, and 89% with a 2.0 cm margin.Conclusion: On the basis of our results and data compiled from the literature, MMS may be the treatment of choice for DFSP because of its high cure rate and maximal conservation of tissue.

Pretraining has recently greatly promoted the development of natural language processing (NLP)
We show that M6 outperforms the baselines in multimodal downstream tasks, and the large M6 with 10 parameters can reach a better performance
We propose a method called M6 that is able to process information of multiple modalities and perform both single-modal and cross-modal understanding and generation
The model is scaled to large model with 10 billion parameters with sophisticated deployment, and the 10 -parameter M6-large is the largest pretrained model in Chinese
Experimental results show that our proposed M6 outperforms the baseline in a number of downstream tasks concerning both single modality and multiple modalities We will continue the pretraining of extremely large models by increasing data to explore the limit of its performance
