In this week's case discussion from Dr Leanne Drew, we look at the second of two lesions identified on a 65-year-old female patient who presented for a full skin check. You can view the first lesion in last week's case.

The patient's last skin exam was three years ago. She has no previous history of skin cancer.

This lesion was identified on her right forearm.

What do you think of it? What would you do next?

Update

Here is the pathology result.
