Prior Annals of Surgical Oncology study revealed-All nodal recurrences evident on US also evident on PET/CT. Thus lack of US may be acceptable. Role of Concurrent Ultrasound Surveillance of Sentinel Node-Positive Node Fields in Melanoma Patients Having Routine Cross-Sectional Imaging - PubMed

Shout out to Charles “in charge”. Medical education courses have become so complex with audio and video embedded in slides, live and virtual attendees, audience questions and polls. Wouldn’t be possible without our awesome IT support working behind the scenes.

Too many years, too many trips with only seeing the inside of an airport, convention center and hotel. Have been trying to prioritize at least 1 day seeing local sites when away for a conference.

Wish I could say it was great to participate in the Surg Onc Bowl at the 2025 Society of Surgical Oncology but the terrible performance is still too fresh. The loss was worth it to get to catch up with Dr Fredrick Greene who was our team captain. He mentored me on my 1st book chapter.😬😳

We did not find a difference in drain days when immediate lymphatic reconstruction was performed at the time of ALND. pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/40231739/ We did see a ⬇️ in seroma without any increased risk of infection. Immediate lymphatic reconstruction is safe. Does it ⬇️ lymphedema? TBD
