Abstract
Electrosurgery can be used to excise tissue, coagulate blood vessels or destroy tumors. Electrosurgical techniques include cutting, coagulation, desiccation and fulguration. For skin lesions, electrosurgery offers the advantages of rapid treatment, hemostasis at the time of incision, preservation of a specimen for pathologic examination and cosmetically acceptable results.
