This week we look at a case submitted by Dr David Stewart in which a 70-year-old male patient with full-body tattoos presents for a skin check, at which time a red patch is noticed on his wrist.
What do you think of this lesion? Further, what's your approach to assessment and biopsy of skin lesions in the presence of tattoos?
