Abstract
Lentiginous melanoma in situ (lentigo maligna) is the most common pattern of melanoma in situ. Surgical treatment remains the standard of care, with a variety of options available, including routine excision, staged excision and Mohs micrographic surgery. Staged excisions are a safe, effective and relatively simple way to achieve tumor clearance for lentiginous melanoma in situ.
