2 Nothing to disclose DISCLOSURE

3 Discussion Objectives Surgical management of localized cutaneous melanoma Changes in management in sentinel lymph node positive patients Management of regional and recurrent melanoma Role of surgery in Stage IV melanoma

4 Melanoma Epidemiology Approximately 87,000 new cases and 10,000 deaths in 2017 Highest rate of increased incidence in men, secondhighest increase in incidence in women. Female lifetime risk 1 in 34 Male lifetime risk 1 in 53 Siegel RL, Miller KD, Jemal A. Cancer statistics, CA Cancer J Clin 2017 Jan;67(1):7-30.

5 Melanoma Epidemiology Siegel RL, Miller KD, Jemal A. Cancer statistics, CA Cancer J Clin 2017 Jan;67(1):7-30.

6 Melanoma Risk Factors Male sex Age >60 Tendency to sunburn / sun-sensitive skin History of multiple or blistering sunburns

7 Melanoma Risk Factors History of non-melanoma skin cancers Immunosuppression Family or personal history of melanoma Tanning bed use; intermittent intense or chronic sun exposure

8 Cutaneous Lesions Suspicious for Melanoma

9 Biopsy Techniques for Melanoma Excisional biopsy with narrow margins Elliptical excision, punch biopsy, saucerization Punch biopsy of thickest part of lesion Shave biopsy

10 Melanoma Pathology Report Components of minimum pathology reporting: Melanoma Breslow thickness / Clark level Ulceration status Mitotic rate Microsatellitosis

11 Surgical Treatment of Localized Melanoma Wide local excision of the primary melanoma Sentinel lymph node dissection

12 Surgical Treatment of Localized Melanoma Diameter of wide excision depends on Breslow thickness

13 Surgical Treatment of Localized Melanoma Diameter of wide excision depends on Breslow thickness

14 Sentinel Lymph Node Biopsy The most important prognostic factor for localized melanoma is the status of the regional lymph nodes Sentinel lymph nodes (SLN) the first lymph nodes in a region to receive lymphatic drainage from the primary tumor site

15 Sentinel Lymph Node Biopsy Discuss and offer sentinel lymph node biopsy to: All patients with Breslow thickness 1 mm Patients with Breslow thickness <0.8 mm with ulceration Patients with Breslow thickness mm ± ulceration Patients with Breslow thickness <0.8 mm with other adverse features mitoses 2/mm 2 or lymphovascular invasion

Dermatopathology (Basel) Feb 9;5(1):21-25 Completion Lymph Node Dissection Previously, completion lymph node dissection recommended to all patients with positive SLN Rates of additional positive non-sln are approximately 20% Two prospective randomized trials have been conducted to assess the impact of completion dissection on survival and local control

45 Regional Therapy Isolated Limb Perfusion and Infusion Isolated limb perfusion (ILP) designed in 1956 Designed to achieve high concentrations of chemotherapy in a limb

46 Regional Therapy ILP ILP technically more challenging than ILI The vessels leading to a limb are surgically exposed and cannulated along with lymphadenectomy The limb is perfused with hyperthermic melphalan under oxygenated conditions
