Management of cutaneous melanomas of the female breast.

Abstract:

:Primary melanomas of the skin of the breast are uncommon lesions. Fifty-four patients were surgically treated for this lesion during a 13-year period, accounting for 3.8 percent of a total of 1431 patients with cutaneous melanoma. Nineteen patients were female and 35 were male. Most recently, in patients with high-risk lesions, such as those exhibiting an aggressive vertical growth phase or a Clark level IV or V, attempts at curative resection have utilized wide and deep excision to the level of the pectoralis fascia with axillary lymph node dissection in selected cases. Reconstruction of the significant breast deficit in five female patients utilized the latissimus dorsi myocutaneous flap. This technique results in an improved aesthetic appearance when compared to primary closure or skin grafting. Donor-site morbidity is minimal. Long-term cancer surveillance is not impeded, and all five patients expressed satisfaction with the reconstruction. Four of the five female patients are currently alive with no evidence of disease at a mean follow-up of 55 months after definitive therapy.
