Value of therapeutic hyperthermic limb perfusion in advanced recurrent melanoma of the lower extremity.

Summary
Although limb perfusion can be a safe and highly effective means of achieving locoregional disease control, there appears to be little survival benefit and perfusion should be reserved for palliative treatment of selected patients with locally advanced melanoma.
