Summary

This study is for people with stage III melanoma that has spread to just one lymph node. Doctors want to see if removing only that cancerous node can prevent the cancer from coming back in the same area, compared to removing more nodes. The trial will also track side effects like swelling and how the surgery affects daily life.
