If you want to update a constructed node, you need to write some XQuery to 
delete the node.  Basically, you need to do a transformation of the constructed 
node that deletes the node in question.

There is a library in the developer site project called common that does this:

http://developer.marklogic.com/code/commons

It is in the subfolder called memupdate.

I don't particularly know that code, but I think it will do what you want.

Subject: [MarkLogic Dev General] remove nodes from parent node

Hello,
             I am trying to delete nodes from a parent node, is there any way 
do it using available functions or do I have to construct a new variable by 
matching nodes and appending them? I notice a function called as 
xdmp:node-delete which deletes the node in the XML document present in the data 
base. Is there a way to do it  in a runtime variable?
Regards,
AN
