Histopathological analysis of lesion (biopsy)

Histopathological analysis of a lesion (skin biopsy) is an essential investigation in dermatology, used for establishing a definitive diagnosis in cases of suspicious skin lesions.

The procedure involves harvesting a tissue sample (biopsy), which is subsequently examined under a microscope by the pathologist to identify cellular and structural changes in the tissue.

Histopathological analysis is recommended for:

• diagnosing benign or malignant skin lesions
• evaluation of suspicious pigmented lesions
• confirming or refuting a dermatological diagnosis
• establishing appropriate therapeutic management

The result of the histopathological examination provides detailed information about the type of lesion, benign or malignant nature and any pathological changes, being essential for selecting the correct treatment.

This investigation is frequently used in cases of suspicion of skin cancer, atypical nevi or other dermatological conditions.

The time required to obtain the result may vary, depending on the complexity of the analysis.
