Researchers conducted this systematic review and meta-analysis to assess the connection between time from biopsy to sentinel-node biopsy (SLNB) and patients’ outcomes for melanoma.
Nine thousand seven hundred five patients were identified, of which 4,383 underwent SNLB at a time interval defined as early, and 4,574 at a late time interval.
