Assessment of maculopapular rash

During a punch biopsy, local anaesthetic is instilled by injection into the surrounding skin. With the skin stretched perpendicular to normal relaxation lines, a disposable skin biopsy punch with a round stainless steel blade (at least 3 mm or 4 mm in diameter is recommended) is applied perpendicular to the skin. Pressure is applied with a rotating action until a ‘give’ is felt as the blade pierces through the subcutaneous tissue. The cylindrical core of tissue is removed and placed in a labelled sample pot containing a suitable fixative solution
