[Free dermatoplasty in melanoblastomas treated by perfusion chemotherapy]

In the paper, the data on the immediate and late results of skin tranplantation in the complex treatment of limb melanoblastomas are reported. The latter consisted in a one-moment massive regional chemotherapy by perfusion of the extremity (iliac, femoral, brachial) with antitumor drugs, against which background melanoblastoma was excised electrosurgically, and lymphadenectomy was performed. The defect of the limb tissues, which was located on the foot or leg in 61 cases, was replaced by a free skin graft. The results of the plastic repair were followed up within the terms from 1 to 10 years.
