description INTRODUCTION: Skin cancer is a rare indication of sternectomy. Our goal is to report the clinical course of seven patients who underwent sternectomy for skin cancer. METHODS: The survey data were collected from medical records of patients treated between 2008 and 2018 at Ceará Cancer Institute. RESULTS: All patients had prolonged sunlight exposure and average disease time of two years and age of 60 years. Most patients recovered favorably after treatment with prolonged survival. CONCLUSION: Sternectomy remains an option with curative purposes for locally advanced skin cancer.
