A shave biopsy is obtained to rule out basal cell carcinoma as the diagnosis of this skin lesion. The pathology results were positive, meaning that this lesion is INDEED a basal cell carcinoma. The margins were not clear of tumor, so the patient will have additional evaluation by a Dermatologist where several options for definitive treatment will probably be offered. This type of skin cancer is normally very treatable and rarely results in significant effects on people's health.
