    Would all evidence of a shave biopsy done less than a month prior to WLE be gone ? I can't imagine nothing is in the 2nd biopsy to indicate a biopsy was done on that area less than a month prior. Suspect surgeon did 2nd biopsy in the wrong spot. Quite concerned since margins of 1st biopsy were not clear. Spitzoid in an adult can move into melanoma quickly from what I read. Any thoughts on this. Surgeon wants to see my son again and compare to picture he took of scar when he first consulted prior to surgery
