Procedure
Skin cancer surgery is planned around diagnosis, tumour type, location, margins, pathology, reconstruction needs, and ongoing surveillance.
Skin cancer surgery may be used to diagnose or treat suspicious and confirmed lesions. Planning considers the type of cancer, location, margins, wound closure, pathology, and follow-up.
The clinic’s surgical pathway is positioned around clear diagnosis and appropriate planning rather than a one-size-fits-all procedure.
01
Diagnosis and pathology review
02
Excision or biopsy planning where indicated
03
Discussion of margins, wound closure, and scarring
04
Follow-up and surveillance planning
No. The pathway depends on lesion type, location, clinical features, pathology, margins, and the most appropriate surgical or referral pathway.
When a lesion is biopsied or excised for diagnosis or cancer treatment, tissue is usually sent for pathology review.
