Your dermatologist will explain to you why the skin lesion needs excision and the procedure involved. You may have to sign a consent form to indicate that you understand and agree to the surgical procedure. Tell your doctor if you are taking any medication (particularly aspirin, clopidogrel, dabigatran and warfarin, which could make you bleed more), or if you have any allergies, medical conditions, or a pacemaker or implanted defibrillator. Remember, to tell your doctor about any over-the-counter supplements or herbal remedies as a number of these can also lead to abnormal bleeding.

The most common type of excision is an elliptical excision. The ellipse is often designed so that the resulting scar runs parallel with existing skin creases. This usually provides a wound under less tension and orientates the scar in a direction which is less noticeable to the eye.

Background: Over 60,000 women are treated for cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN) each year in England, most by excision. Management of women who have incomplete excision is controversial and the subject of much debate. Consequently, the completeness of excision is often ignored in the planning of subsequent treatment. We aimed to assess the effect of completeness of excision on the risk of post-treatment disease.

Methods: We undertook a meta-analysis of studies published between Jan 1, 1960, and Jan 31, 2007, that studied the risk of post-treatment disease (ie, CIN of any grade or invasive cancer) in relation to completeness of excision. Studies were included if they described treatment of CIN by excision; numbers of women with involved margins; prevalence of and numbers of women with post-treatment disease in relation to margin status. Criteria for post-treatment disease had to be stated as a defined abnormal cytology or histology. Studies were excluded if they described treatment of cervical glandular intraepithelial disease (CGIN); if all or nearly all women had reflex hysterectomy done soon after initial treatment; if women were immunosuppressed (eg, if they were HIV-positive); or if no control group with disease-free margins was used. The endpoint of our analysis was the relative risk (RR) of post-treatment disease in those whose treatment histology suggested that excision was complete compared with those in whom excision was incomplete or uncertain. RR meta-analysis was done by use of a random effects model.

Findings: The initial Medline search identified 1756 publications, from which 125 publications were short-listed. Of these, 65 and one unpublished study met our inclusion criteria; therefore, 66 studies were included in this meta-analysis. These studies described findings in 35,109 women of whom 8091 (23%) had at least one margin of the excision biopsy involved with disease. After incomplete excision, RR of post-treatment disease of any grade was 5.47 (95% CI 4.37-6.83) and RR of high-grade disease (ie, CIN 2 or 3, or high-grade squamous intraepithelial lesion) was 6.09 (3.87-9.60) compared with the reference group who had complete excision. High-grade post-treatment disease occurred in 597 of 3335 (18%) women who had incomplete excision versus 318 of 12 493 (3%) women who had complete excision.

Interpretation: Incomplete excision of CIN exposes women to a substantial risk of high-grade post-treatment disease. Some of these women would be safer with a second treatment, especially if deep margins are involved, but most will need close follow-up for at least 10 years. Every effort should be made to avoid incomplete excision. Adding extensive ablation in the treatment crater to compensate for inadequate excision should be avoided because this might delay detection of inadequately treated invasive disease and because the effectiveness of additional ablation to destroy any residual CIN cannot be assessed. Furthermore, extensive ablation does not decrease any risk of preterm delivery in subsequent pregnancies.

Concern about world wide local recurrence rates for rectal cancer of 20-45%, together with anxiety at the recent proliferation of adjuvant therapies, led us to review the efficacy of total mesorectal excision (TME) with which no adjuvant therapy had been combined. Precise, sharp dissection is undertaken around the integral mesentery of the hind gut, which envelopes the entire mid rectum. This procedure adds to operative time and complications but has been claimed to eliminate virtually all locally recurrent disease after \"curative\" surgery. Independent analysis (J. K. M.) of prospective follow-up data extended over a 13-year interval (1978-91; mean 7.5 years). The actuarial local recurrence rate after curative anterior resection at 5 years is 4% (95% Cl 0-7.5%) and the overall recurrence rate is 18% (10-25%). 10-year figures are 4% (0-11%) and 19% (7-32%). In view of the high-risk classification used for the North Central Cancer Treatment Group (NCCTG), which has led to a trend to chemoradiotherapy, a similar group of high-risk Basingstoke cases was constructed for comparison purposes. This group included 135 consecutive Dukes' B (B2) and Dukes' C cancer operations, both anterior resection and abdominal-perineal excision, for tumours below 12 cm from the anal verge. Results from TME alone are substantially superior to the best reported (NCCTG) from conventional surgery plus radiotherapy or combination chemoradiotherapy: 5% local recurrence at 5 years compared with 25% and 13.5%, respectively; and 22% overall recurrence compared with 62.7% and 41.5%, respectively (Dukes' B cases [B2], 15%; Dukes' C cases, 32%). Meticulous TME, which encompasses the whole field of tumour spread, can improve cure rates and reduce the variability of outcomes between surgeons. Far more genuine \"cures\" of rectal cancer are possible by surgery alone than have generally been believed or are currently accepted. Better surgical results are an essential background for the more selective use of adjuvant therapy in the future.

Genomes are constantly threatened by DNA damage, but cells can remove a large variety of DNA lesions by nucleotide excision repair (NER)1. Mutations in NER factors compromise cellular fitness and cause human diseases, such as Xeroderma pigmentosum (XP), Cockayne syndrome, and trichothiodystrophy (TTD)2,3. The NER machinery is built around the multisubunit transcription factor IIH (TFIIH), which opens the DNA repair bubble, scans for the lesion, and coordinates excision of the damaged DNA single-strand fragment1,4. TFIIH consists of a kinase module and a core module that contains the ATPases XPB and XPD5.

The structure further suggests how XPD verifies the lesion during DNA scanning. The DNA single strand extends into a pore formed by the ATPase lobe 1, the iron-sulfur cluster (FeS) domain, and the Arch domain (Fig. 4a). The sugar-phosphate backbone is bound by residues in the FeS domain, including Y192 and R196, which were implicated in DNA lesion sensing29 (Fig. 4b). Residues R112 and C134 bridge between DNA and the FeS cluster (Supplementary Fig. 4d), which was suggested to be involved in lesion detection via DNA-mediated charge transfer30. The FeS cluster is flanked by two protein pockets that are lined with aromatic residues Y158, F161, and F193 and may proof-read DNA bases, as observed for base excision DNA repair31.

Before trying to understand why laparoscopic deep excision surgery is the most effective in thoroughly removing all endometriosis lesions, we will look into some of the limitations of current approaches:

An endometriosis lesion is like an iceberg with just the peak being visible while the actual bulk of the lesion is still within the underlying tissue. The underlying part of the lesion can regrow again leading to recurrence of symptoms. Therefore, complete excision of all visible endometriosis lesions is essential for full symptom alleviation and to prevent a recurrence.

MassHealth requires prior authorization for excision of excessive skin and subcutaneous tissue. MassHealth reviews requests for prior authorization on the basis of medical necessity. If MassHealth approves the request, payment is still subject to all general conditions of MassHealth, including member eligibility, other insurance, and program restrictions.

There are many different types of surgical excisions. Some may be performed on an outpatient basis in a healthcare provider's office with no anesthesia. Others may require open surgery with general anesthesia in a hospital.

A resection means surgically removing an entire organ, a whole section of an organ (like a lung lobe), or an entire body part. An excision means removing a portion of a body part or a complete section of tissue. For example, a mastectomy is the resection of an entire breast, while a lumpectomy is the excision of a tumor from a breast.

Yes, you can have a surgical excision to remove a tattoo. The skin with ink is cut out from the surrounding skin, and the wound is closed with sutures. The procedure may require local or general anesthesia and usually leaves a scar.

Non-malignant skin lesion (other than viral verrucae (common warts) and seborrheic keratoses), including a cyst, ulcer or scar (other than a scar removed during the surgical approach at an operation), surgical excision (other than by shave excision) and repair of, if:

The excision of warts and seborrheic keratoses attracts benefits on an attendance basis with the exceptions outlined in TN.8.9 of the explanatory notes to this category. Excision of pre-malignant lesions including solar keratoses where clinically indicated are covered by items 31357, 31360, 31362, 31364, 31366, 31368 and 31370.

The necessary excision diameter (or defect size) refers to the lesion size plus a clinically appropriate margin of healthy tissue required with the intent of complete surgical excision. Measurements should be taken prior to excision. Margin size should be determined in line with current NHMRC guidelines.

For the purpose of items 31356 to 31383, the defect size is calculated by the average of the width and the length of the skin lesion and an appropriate margin. The necessary excision diameter is calculated as shown in the Factsheet at this link: Determining lesion size for MBS selection 59ce067264
