In this week's case discussion, from Dr Terry Harvey, we look at a 65-year-old male patient who presents for a full skin check with no specific concerns.
This 2x2mm pigmented lesion is found on his left shoulder. What do you think of it? What would you do next?
This lesion was excised, and the pathology result was a pigmented superficial multifocal BCC.
