Abstract
In-transit metastatic melanoma is classified as a regional intralymphatic metastasis of melanoma. Currently, there is no standardized regimen used to treat in-transit metastatic melanoma, and therapy is individualized based on the patient. While many patients undergo surgical procedures, those with surgical contraindications or declination face challenges when attempting to find adequate treatment options. This case report demonstrates the successful treatment of multiple in-transit metastatic melanoma lesions using the combination of shave excision, electrodesiccation and curettage, and topical imiquimod cream. Several months later, examination showed clinical resolution of the original metastatic lesions. This treatment regimen may provide an alternative option for a select group of patients with certain comorbidities and therapeutic contraindications.
