Histopathological tests
Histopathological examinations are an integral part of the diagnostic process in the case of removal of skin lesions. After the surgical procedure, the removed tissues are carefully examined under a microscope by a pathologist.
Histopathological analysis allows for a precise assessment of the nature of the lesion, including the detection of possible neoplastic changes, which allows for the implementation of appropriate treatment.

What is a histopathological examination?
This is a microscopic analysis of tissue taken during a surgical procedure or biopsy. A pathologist examines the cellular structure and identifies potential abnormalities such as tumors, inflammation, precancerous changes, or autoimmune conditions.
Why are histopathological examinations performed?
They help to:
- Identify cancerous and benign tumors,
- Determine the grade of malignancy,
- Select optimal treatment (e.g., targeted therapy, hormone therapy, surgery),
- Evaluate disease progression and treatment effectiveness,
- Confirm or rule out inflammatory or autoimmune processes.
Histopathology – step-by-step process
- Sample collection – usually via fine-needle aspiration, core biopsy, or surgical excision of a lesion.
- Fixation – tissue is preserved in formalin and embedded in paraffin.
- Slide preparation – the tissue is sliced into very thin layers and stained with special dyes.
- Microscopic analysis – a pathologist evaluates cellular structures and abnormalities.
- Results – available within 7–14 business days, depending on the sample type.
What happens after sample collection?
Collected samples are secured and sent to SYNEVO or Diagnostyka laboratories. After analysis, the attending physician discusses the results and recommends further diagnostics or treatment.
Most common histopathological tests
- Skin lesions – warts, pigmented nevi, fibromas, lipomas, melanomas.
- Internal organs – breast, thyroid, liver, kidneys, testicles.
- Suspected tumors – both benign and malignant.
- Postoperative tissues – e.g., after appendix, gallbladder, or reproductive organ removal.

W niektórych przypadkach może być potrzebna dodatkowa analiza lub konsultacja z innym specjalistą, szczególnie w bardziej skomplikowanych przypadkach.
Jeśli wynik potwierdzi obecność nowotworu, lekarz zaleci dalsze badania i zaplanuje odpowiednie leczenie, często w oparciu o szczegółowe badania histopatologiczne.
Ryzyko powikłań po biopsji jest niewielkie, ale może obejmować krwawienie, infekcję lub ból w miejscu pobrania materiału.
