| Abstract | Dermoscopy refers to evaluation of the skin surface using surface microscopy. It is mainly used for the diagnosis of skin disorders. We report two cases in which dermoscopy played a role in treatment. Our first case was a 40-year-old female with history of insect bite. We evaluated the patient using a dermoscope and removed the tick with mouth part embedded in dermis using forceps ensuring full removal after procedure. The second case was a 35-year-old female who presented with a non-healing ulcer over lower back, following excision of epidermoid cyst. Dermoscopy showed the presence of a thread which was removed and repeat dermoscopy following extraction ensured its full removal. |
