About Excisional Biopsy

An excisional biopsy is a definitive diagnostic and therapeutic surgical procedure performed by a general surgeon to remove an entire abnormal tissue mass or lesion, along with a margin of surrounding healthy tissue. This procedure is commonly used for suspicious lumps, skin lesions, or growths where a complete removal is necessary for accurate pathological analysis. It provides a complete tissue sample, allowing for precise diagnosis of conditions like cancer, cysts, or infections. The surgery is typically performed under local or general anesthesia, depending on the lesion's size and location. As both a diagnostic tool and a potential curative treatment, it is a cornerstone procedure in managing various soft tissue conditions.
