Abstract (2. Language): 
In this study, our experiences with 30 cases who were treated for melanoma between the years 1993-2001 in the Department of Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery of Uludağ University Medical School were presented. These cases were evaluated according to the age, sex, localization, histologic type and level, nodal status and recurrence. Eighteen cases were men and 12 cases were women. The mean age was 61 years. Histologic examinations revealed that 17 cases were nodular, 6 cases were superficial, 4 cases were acral lentiginous and 3 cases were lentigo melanoma. According to the Clark's level, 43.3% of the cases were classified in level IV-V, 13.3% in level III and 43.3% in level II. At the admission, 53.3% of the cases were found to have regional lymph node metastasis. Local recurrence was seen in 10% of the cases at different time points following the operation. We excised the lesions with 3-cm free margin including the fascia. Regional lymph node dissection was performed in cases who had regional lymph node metastatis. In cases who had no lymph node metastasis, sentinel lymph node biopsy was performed.
Abstract (Original Language): 
Bu çalışmada, 1993-2001 yılları arasında, Uludağ Üniversitesi Tıp Fakültesi Plastik ve Rekonstrüktif Cerrahi Kliniğinde opere edilen 30 malign melanomlu olgu ile ilgili deneyimlerimiz sunulmaktadır. Olgular yaş, cinsiyet, lezyonun yerleşimi, histolojik tipi ve evresi, lenf nod tutulumu ve nüks dikkate alınarak incelendi. Onsekizi erkek, 12’si kadın hasta olan olguların yaş ortalaması 61'dir. Histolojik incelemeler sonucunda, 17 olguda nodüler tip, 6 olguda yüzeyel yayılan tip, 4 olguda akral lentiginöz tip ve 3 olguda lentigo tip malign melanom saptandı. Clark'ın yaptığı evrelendirmeye göre; %43.3’ü evre IV ve V, % 13.3’ü evre III ve %43.3’ü evre II olarak tespit edildi. Olguların %53,3’ünde başvuru sırasında bölgesel lenf nod tutulumu saptanırken, olguların %10’unda operasyon sonrasında değişik zamanlarda lokal nüks görüldü. Bu çalışmada, malign melanomlu olguların lezyonları 3 cm salim doku ile birlikte fasya da dahil edilmek üzere eksize edildi. Bölgesel lenf nod metastazı saptanan olgularda lenf nodu disseksiyonu yapılırken, bölgesel lenf nod metastazı olmayan olgularda ise sentinel lenf nodu biopsisi yapıldı.
