Skin Lesion Excisional Biopsy

Skin Lesion Excisional Biopsy

In dermatology, skin biopsies are essential for making a correct diagnosis and therapeutic planning. Several skin biopsy techniques exist, including shaving, saucerization, curettage, snip, incisional, and excisional biopsy. An excisional biopsy is the process of completely removing a solitary skin lesion. This activity describes the indications, contraindications, and techniques involved in performing an excisional biopsy and highlights the interprofessional team’s role in caring for patients requiring excisional biopsies.
