National practice patterns of completion lymph node dissection for sentinel node-positive melanoma.
In this study, the investigators examined the practice patterns of completion lymph node dissection (CLND) utilization. Using the National Cancer Database, the investigators examined CLND utilization in SLN-positive patients diagnosed with clinically node-negative Stage III melanoma from 2012 to 2015. They found that CLND utilization varied based on patient factors and decreased over time.
