This article reviews the use of selective lymphadenectomy, otherwise known as sentinel lymph node biopsy, as a clinical alternative in patients with malignant melanoma. This represents a compromise between the two traditional treatment modalities, elective lymph node dissection or observation of the regional nodal basin followed by therapeutic lymph node dissection once disease becomes clinically apparent.
