P J Heenan, T Weeramanthri, C D Holman, B K Armstrong.   

Abstract

Varied methods of primary surgical treatment of 189 cases of cutaneous malignant melanoma studied in Western Australia had no statistically significant effect on prognosis. The results indicate that wide excision is not justified as the standard treatment of cutaneous malignant melanoma.
