Surgical Removal of a Tick‐Bite Region Without the Presence of an Insect Body
Surgical excision of a tick‐bite lesion revealed retained mouthparts despite the absence of a visible tick body. Dermoscopy demonstrated chelicerae imprints, and histopathology confirmed the presence of residual tick structures. This case highlights the combined diagnostic value of dermoscopy and histopathology in cases where the tick body is not found.
