Tissue selection

Tissue selection from suspected malignant skin lesions, by lesion size:[1]
<4 mm 4 - 8 mm 9 - 15 mm
File:Tissue selection from skin excision less than 4 mm with suspected malignant lesion.png File:Tissue selection from skin excision 4-8 mm with suspected malignant lesion.png File:Tissue selection from skin excision 9-15 mm with suspected malignant lesion.png

In table above, each top image shows recommended lines for cutting out slices to be submitted for further processing. Bottom image shows which side of the slice that should be put to microtomy. Dashed lines here mean that either side could be used. Further information: Gross processing of skin excisions

  1. There are many variants for the processing of skin excisions. These examples use aspects from the following sources: ". Ochsner J 5 (2): 22–33. 2003. PMID 22826680. PMC: 3399331. Archived from the original. . 
    - With a "standard histologic examination" that, in addition to the lesion, only includes one section from each side along the longest diameter of the specimen.
    - It also shows an example of circular coverage, with equal coverage distance in all four directions.
    - The entire specimen may be submitted if the risk of malignancy is high.
