What is the most likely level of prevention below?

Removal of pre-cancerous lesions on the skin

a.	Tertiary Prevention
	b.	Secondary Prevention
	c.	None of the above
	d.	Primary Prevention

Expert Solution

The correct answer would be (a) Tertiary prevention.

There are four levels of prevention: primary, secondary, tertiary, and primordial.

Primordial prevention: It includes prevention of a risk factor that can lead to the development of a disease. It includes individual and mass education.

Primary prevention: This includes the actions that can prevent a disease occurrence. It intervenes in the pre pathogenesis phase. It can be achieved by measures designed to achieve general health and well being.

Secondary prevention: This includes screening tests and case finding programs. Here early detection of disease is done.

Tertiary prevention: The disease process has already started and interventions are required to avoid further complications and morbidity.

Here 'removal of pre-cancerous cells' involves surgical interventions to avoid the complications related to cancer, hence it would be considered as 'tertiary prevention'.
