<p>Regional lymph node dissection (<sc>rlnd</sc>

has been proposed as a quality assessment parameter that has to be validated.</p>
</sec>
<sec><title>Methods</title>
<p>We conducted a retrospective cohort analysis at the Princess Margaret Cancer Centre (University Health Network, Toronto, ON). The <sc>lnrr</sc>
s for all patients who underwent <sc>rlnd</sc>
for malignant cutaneous melanoma during 2000–2010 were recorded. Indications for <sc>rlnd</sc>
were a positive sentinel lymph node biopsy or clinical lymphadenopathy (palpable or radiologically detected).</p>
</sec>
<sec><title>Results</title>
<p>Of the 207 identified <sc>rlnd</sc>
s, 146 (70.5%) were subsequent to a positive sentinel lymph node biopsy, and 61 (29.5%) were performed for clinical lymphadenopathy. The median <sc>lnrr</sc>
was 24 nodes (range: 9–47 nodes; 10th percentile: 14 nodes) for axillary <sc>rlnd</sc>
, 12 nodes (range: 5–30 nodes; 10th percentile: 8 nodes) for inguinal <sc>rlnd</sc>
, and 16 nodes (range: 10–21 nodes; 10th percentile: 11 nodes) for ilioinguinal <sc>rlnd</sc>
. The results were similar when comparing patients with positive sentinel lymph nodes and those with clinical lymphadenopathy, and the same surgical techniques were used in both groups.</p>

<sec><title>Conclusions</title>
<p>The <sc>lnrr</sc>
s at our institution are similar to rates reported at other tertiary-care melanoma centres. A minimum acceptable <sc>lnrr</sc>
can be considered a quality assessment parameter in the surgical management of melanoma with nodal metastasis.</p>
