AB Axillary  lymph  node  dissection  is  indicated  for  the  management  of  clinically  positive  nodes  secondary  to  breast  cancer  or  melanoma.  It  is  also  the  current  standard  of  care  for  selected  cases  of  melanoma  and  breast  cancer.  Axillary  node  dissection  is  also  considered  for  breast  cancers  when  the  sentinel  lymph  node  cannot  be  identified.
