Metastasectomy for stage IV melanoma
Surg Oncol Clin N Am.
2015 Apr.
Abstract
Metastatic melanoma has an unpredictable natural history but a predictably high mortality. Despite recent advances in systemic therapy, many patients do not respond, or develop resistance to drug therapy. Surgery has consistently shown good outcomes in appropriately selected patients. It is likely to be even more successful in the era of more effective medical treatment. Surgery should remain a strongly considered option for metastatic melanoma.
