An investigation was undertaken into whether the preference for surgery or non-invasive treatment of a superficial basal cell carcinoma differs between patients who used a patient decision aid and a control group. Secondly, whether patients were satisfied with their decision post-treatment was investigated. A prospective observational study was performed comparing patients with a superficial basal cell carcinoma who used a patient decision aid (patient decision aid group) with a control group. The primary outcome was the proportion of patients that chose non-invasive treatment. A secondary outcome was the mean score of \u201ceffective decision-making\u201d on the Decisional Conflict Scale 3 months post-treatment. In the patient decision aid group, 48.6% (52\/109) seemed to prefer non-invasive treatment vs 40.8% (42\/103) in the control group (p\u2009=\u20090.255); the result was not significant. Three months post-treatment, the adjusted between-group mean difference in \u201ceffective decision-making\u201d was \u20134.10 (p\u2009=\u20090.082) favouring the patient decision aid group (effect size 0.3). To conclude, patients who used a patient decision aid seemed to choose non-invasive therapy over surgery slightly more often but the result was not significant.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.2340\/actadv.v105.41914","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2025,4,7]],"date-time":"2025-04-07T13:10:13Z","timestamp":1744031413000},"page":"adv41914","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":1,"title":["Surgery or Non-invasive Treatment for Superficial Basal Cell Carcinoma: Does a Patient Decision Aid Help to Make a Personalized Treatment Decision?"],"prefix":"10.2340","volume":"105","author":[{"given":"Lieke C.J.","family":"Van Delft","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Myrthe M.G.","family":"Moermans","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Brigitte A.B.","family":"Essers","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Patty J.","family":"Nelemans","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Klara","family":"Mosterd","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Marieke E.C.","family":"Van Winden","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Satish F.K.","family":"Lubeek","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Nicole W.J.","family":"Kelleners-Smeets","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"1183","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2025,4,7]]},"reference":[{"key":"106632","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","unstructured":"Kim JYS, Kozlow JH, Mittal B, Moyer J, Olencki T, Rodgers P.
