Abstract
Background null Patients with melanoma of the scalp may have higher failure (recurrence) rates than melanoma of other body sites. null Objective null We sought to characterize survival and patterns of failure for patients with scalp melanoma. null Methods null Between 1998 and 2010, 250 nonmetastatic patients underwent wide local excision of a primary scalp melanoma. Kaplan-Meier analyses were performed to evaluate overall survival, scalp...
