    A T-shaped skin incision facilitates radical lymph node removal for melanoma. This technique resulted in no post-operative complications, offering a safe approach for high-risk skin cancers.

    Area of Science:

    • Surgical Oncology
    • Dermatology

    Context:

    • Axillary lymph node dissection is crucial for melanoma staging.
    • Standard incisions may limit surgical access.
    • Radical lymphonodectomy requires adequate exposure of the axillary groove.

    Purpose:

    • To evaluate the efficacy and safety of a T-shaped skin incision for radical lymphonodectomy.
    • To assess the utility of this incision for combined procedures in melanoma treatment.

    Summary:

    • A T-shaped skin incision provides wide representation of the axillary groove, enabling radical lymphonodectomy.
    • The technique was associated with no post-operative morbidity.
    • It can be readily combined with dissection for treating high-risk melanomas in favorable anatomical locations.
