Eligible studies were randomized controlled trials (RCTs) comparing: CLND with OO, or immediate CLND with delayed CLND.Results: Four RCTs were included. There was no difference in melanoma-specific survival (MSS) (HR=0.91, 95% CI=0.77-1.08, p=0.29).

However, subgroup analysis suggests a time-dependent benefit for early surgical lymph node removal compared to delayed or none.
