As previously reported, MART-1 and Melan-A demonstrated predominantly cytoplasmic staining of melanoma cells [ 6 ] . The monoclonal antibody (T311) to tyrosinase, has been reported to demonstrate high sensitivity and specificity for melanoma [ 13 ] . It has also demonstrated an immunostaining pattern in sentinel lymph nodes identical to MART-1 and Melan-A.
However, only 21 were positive with MART-1 and Melan-A individually.
The 'melanoma cocktail' did not show background staining of non-melanocytic cells in the sentinel lymph nodes (Figure 2and 3) and demonstrated immunostaining pattern identical to MART-1 and Melan-A reported previously [ 6 ] . 5% (9/188) slices from 21% (5/24) of the cases showed groups of cohesive spindle cells which were immunoreactive for the cocktail in the capsule of sentinel lymph nodes.
At present histomorphologic examination with immunohistochemistry remains the most reliable and practical means of detecting melanoma micrometastases in sentinel lymph nodes [ 6 21 ] . MART-1 and Melan-A are two antibodies to different epitopes of the same antigen and are complementary to each other.
