Positive Surgical Margins After Nephron-Sparing Surgery

European Urology, 2012
Little is known on the natural history of positive surgical margins (PSMs) in partial nephrectomy (PN). Accumulating data suggest that secondary nephrectomy might not be necessary in all patients with PSMs after PN.Provide an overview on incidence and risk factors for PSMs after partial nephrectomy and on the rate of local and distant disease ...

Positive surgical margins after partial nephrectomy

Nature Reviews Urology, 2010
Small renal tumors are generally managed by partial nephrectomy; however, positive surgical margins are occasionally found on final pathologic examination. Growing evidence suggests that the presence of positive margins does not adversely affect outcomes; these patients can potentially be managed expectantly with close follow-up without compromising ...

Impact of positive surgical margins after radical prostatectomy

Urology, 2006
p s s s T m m w a o adical prostatectomy provides excellent longterm survival for patients with clinically loalized prostate cancer. A significant number of atients, however, will ultimately have disease reurrence after surgery.1 Biochemical recurrence oes not ultimately guarantee significant metastatic isease and/or death, but for the vast majority of

Positive surgical margins in cancer of the larynx

European Archives of Oto-Rhino-Laryngology, 2001
In order to determine what should be done for laryngeal cancer patients when surgical margins are positive, and to evaluate their prognosis, a retrospective review of 21 laryngeal cancer patients with positive surgical margins out of 714 surgically treated cases (2.9%) was carried out. Nineteen patients were treated with postoperative radiation therapy.

Positive Surgical Margins After Radical Prostatectomy: Does It Matter?

European Urology, 2014
After decades of study, it remains difficult to accurately quantify the incidence or prevalence of positive surgical margins (PSMs) after radical prostatectomy (RP). Reported percentages of PSMs vary greatly (range: 1% to 50%) depending on whether the prostate cancer (PCa) was organ confined (pT2) or not (pT3+) [1]. This is due to amultitude of factors

Positive Surgical Excision Margins of a Basal Cell Carcinoma

Dermatologic Surgery, 1998
This case illustrates two strongly and diametrically opposed options advocated in the literature for dealing with positive surgical margins. The best plan is to individualize the decision-making process based on the available variables (histology, location of positive margins), the patient's age and health, and a "guided," but informed decision by the ...

Management of Positive Surgical Margins After Radical Prostatectomy

2021
Positive surgical margin (PSM) after radical prostatectomy is associated with an increased likelihood of biochemical recurrence (BCR) and may necessitate additional treatment. PSM characteristics like Gleason grade at PSM site, PSM length, PSM volume, locally advanced disease, and high Gleason score on whole specimen were reported to be important ...

Close surgical margins after radical prostatectomy mimic biochemical recurrence rates of positive margins

Urologic Oncology: Seminars and Original Investigations, 2015
The significance of a "close" but negative surgical margin after radical prostatectomy (RP) is controversial. We evaluated the effect of a close surgical margin (CSM) on biochemical recurrence (BCR) compared to a negative margin after RP.Pathologic records of men who underwent RP from 2005-2011 were retrospectively reviewed.

Do Margins Matter? The Prognostic Significance of Positive Surgical Margins in Radical Prostatectomy Specimens

Journal of Urology, 2005
The prognostic significance of positive surgical margins (PSM) in radical prostatectomy (RP) specimens remains unclear. While most studies have concluded that a PSM is an independent adverse prognostic factor, others report that surgical margin status has no effect on prognosis.
