At the Melanoma and Skin Cancer Unit, we specialise in performing surgical excisions of tumors, extending resections of existing tumors, and removal of sentinel nodes. Each year, our department carries out numerous surgeries on new melanoma patients and those under follow-up. Before surgical intervention, patients' microscopic findings are examined by a pathologist. At an expert summary meeting, all the forum's experts - including oncologists, dermatologists, and plastic surgeons - share their opinions in order to reach a unified decision on the continuation of the medical treatment.
