How would you manage this lesion on the lower leg?

This week we revisit a case from Dr Leanne Drew in which a 65-year-old female patient presents for a full skin check. The patient has no previous history of skin cancer, and her last skin check was three years ago.

This lesion is identified on the left lateral proximal lower leg.

What do you think of it?

Please leave your comments today and check back for the outcome from Wednesday 2pm AEDT.
