PURPOSE: Presence of metastasis in sentinel lymph node (SLN) is considered to be the most important factor in terms of patient survival. The main aim of this study was to identify predictors of positive SLN in Serbian patients with melanoma. METHODS: This retrospective study was conducted on 147 patients. Univariate chi-square and univariate logistic regression analyses were used to identify the association between prognostic factors and positive SLN. Receiver Operating Characteristics (ROC) was conducted to find the Breslow thickness cutoff point at which to perform SLN biopsy (SLNB). Kaplan-Meier analysis was used to evaluate disease-free survival (DFS), and log rank test was applied to compare differences between groups. RESULTS: Bresl...
