Riassunto

Presenting many previously unknown patterns of lymph drainage and based on more than 2000 studies of melanoma patients, this book is a valuable addition to the topic of lymphatic mapping and sentinel node biopsy which is of such considerable interest in surgical oncology. The authors' vast experience and their insights in applying this technique to patients with melanoma will be invaluable to any surgical oncology team contemplating introducing this approach to management of their patients. A section on lymphatic drainage patterns of the breast is also included, based on 90 studies of breast cancer patients. The new lymphatic drainage pathways described will also be of interest to other surgeons and anatomists.
