The greater the Breslow depth the poorer the patient's prognosis, and the lower the cure rates.</p><p id="par0030" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">Excisional biopsy is not appropriate on: the palms of the hands, the soles of the feet, the face, fingers, subungual region, outer ear or on very large lesions; and in these cases it is indicated that an incisional biopsy is acceptable, taking the portion which has been clinically shown to be deeper. If the incisional biopsy does not allow accurate microstaging of the patient – which is frequent due to underestimating the thickness of the lesion – it is appropriate to repeat the procedure, and preferably go on to perform an excisional biopsy.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0270"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">10</span></a></p></span><span id="sec0020" class="elsevierStyleSection elsevierViewall"><span class="elsevierStyleSectionTitle" id="sect0040">Preoperative staging</span><p id="par0035" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">When the diagnosis of melanoma has been confirmed, the patient needs to be staged. This is determined by the thickness, the histological features of the melanoma and the locoregional spread of the disease. Staging enables the risk of lymph node and systemic metastasis of the melanoma to be evaluated, which increases according to the thickness of the lesions. The recommendation, according to NCCN guidelines (National Comprehensive Cancer Network), 2014,<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0270"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">10</span></a> is that routine testing for spread should not be undertaken in patients with stages I and II, unless the patient presents symptoms or signs of disease distant from the primary tumour. By contrast, they do stress that there should be a complete physical examination of the skin, the regional lymphatic pathways, and of the nodal basin. If there are any doubts on physical examination of the lymph nodes, it is suggested that an ultrasound should be performed of the nodal basin before sentinel node biopsy. If a suspicious lesion is found on ultrasound, this should be confirmed histologically. For stage III patients with positive sentinel nodes (clinically negative) the panellists leave the decision to treating physician whether to undertake a computed tomography (CT) scan or a positron emissions scan (PET/CT). They consider that histological confirmation of lymph node spread is appropriate by fine needle aspiration, core needle biopsy or open biopsy, and imaging studies for the purpose of staging, and evaluating specific signs and symptoms in patients with stage III melanoma with clinically positive lymph nodes. For patients with stage IV melanoma with distant metastasis, the consensus recommends confirming the metastasis histologically, and ideally perform a genetic study (BRAF or c-Kit mutation) to start targeted therapy, lactic dehydrogenase (prognostic marker) in addition to imaging studies (CT with or without PE/CT), including magnetic resonance (MRI) or contrasted CT of the central nervous system due to the high incidence of brain metastasis in stage IV patients.</p></span><span id="sec0025" class="elsevierStyleSection elsevierViewall"><span class="elsevierStyleSectionTitle" id="sect0045">Surgical management</span><p id="par0040" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">The surgery recommended to remove this tumour, also known as wide radical excision, is the appropriate way to manage primary cutaneous melanoma in stages I–III, and including cases with regional nodal metastasis. The fundamental objective is to excise both the visible and microscopic tumour, and micro- and macroscopic satellites. This type of surgery must meet 2 criteria: the resection of the primary tumour should include a peripheral margin of normal skin measured from the visible edge of any residual pigmentation, tumour tissue or biopsy scar, and the deep margin of the excision should extend to the muscular fascia.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0275"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">11</span></a> However, it has not been demonstrated that including the muscular fascia in the resection is sufficient for the procedure to be successful.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0280"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">12</span></a> The appropriate excision margins have been widely investigated in randomised clinical studies,<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRefs" href="#bib0285"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">13,14</span></a> and it has been found necessary to widen the margins as the Breslow depth of the melanoma increases<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0270"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">10</span></a> (<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#tbl0005">Table 1</a>).

Persistence of melanoma-positive margins, on histological examination of the excision, requires a second excision to be made. In cases when it is not possible to achieve tumour-free negative margins, complementary radiotherapy has been suggested, which has demonstrated a decrease in local recurrence rates of some histological types of melanoma.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRefs" href="#bib0300"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">16,17</span></a></p><elsevierMultimedia ident="tbl0005"></elsevierMultimedia><p id="par0045" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">Melanomas located on the palms of the hands, soles of the feet, head, neck and those which are histologically associated with ulceration, angiolymphatic invasion, satellitosis or high Breslow depth have a greater risk of local recurrence after wide radical excision.

Of these adverse histological factors, the most associated with micrometastasis is ulceration, followed by the presence of one or more mitoses. Patients with stage I and II melanoma do not require routine testing. In patients with regional lymph node involvement or in stage III of the disease, the recommendation is histological confirmation by fine needle aspiration or open biopsy, and it is left to the criteria of the physicians whether to perform imaging studies to find distant metastases.

La biopsia, en caso de sospecharse melanoma, debe ser escisional, con el objetivo de obtener información histológica completa y analizar factores de mal pronóstico, como ulceración, número de mitosis y el Breslow, que influyen en la estadificación preoperatoria del paciente y en la decisión de realizar biopsia de ganglio centinela o no. La escisión local amplia es el manejo indicado para el melanoma con márgenes periféricos de piel normal ya establecidos de acuerdo al Breslow y a la localización del tumor. La linfadenectomía terapéutica es el tratamiento recomendado de los pacientes con melanoma que tienen ganglios linfáticos clínica o radiológicamente positivos.</p><p id="spar0025" class="elsevierStyleSimplePara elsevierViewall">En este artículo se realiza una revisión del tratamiento quirúrgico del melanoma, la toma adecuada de biopsia de lesiones sospechosas, los factores histológicos adversos, las indicaciones de biopsia del ganglio centinela y de linfadenectomía radical. Además se revisan situaciones especiales en las cuales el manejo del melanoma difiere por su localización (acral plantar, subungueal, lentigo maligno) o diagnóstico durante el embarazo.</p></span>" ] ] "NotaPie" => array:1 [ 0 => array:2 [ "etiqueta" => "☆" "nota" => "<p class="elsevierStyleNotepara" id="npar0005">Please cite this article as: Zuluaga-Sepúlveda MA, Arellano-Mendoza I, Ocampo-Candiani J.
