Conventional surgery for lentigo maligna melanoma (LMM) is based on normal histological evaluation. However, such evaluation leaves diagnostic gaps. In contrast, complete three-dimensional (3D) histology of excision margins permits accurate detection of continuously spreading tumour strands like those of LMM. These can be specifically excised in tumour-positive areas with smaller excision margins, and better cosmesis and function. To date there have been no controlled studies of micrographic surgery of LMM.
