Video Summary

In this video, the equipment needed for a shave biopsy is listed, including alcohol swab, marking pen, syringe with lidocaine, gauze, razor or scalpel, biopsy bottle, 20% aluminum chloride, Vaseline, bandage, pathology request, and biopsy. The area to be biopsied is cleansed with an alcohol swab and marked with a surgical pen. Lidocaine is injected to anesthetize the area and the lesion is stabilized. A double-edged razor is used to carefully shave and remove the lesion. A Q-tip with aluminum chloride is then applied to stop bleeding, followed by applying a bandage.
