Popis: | There remains a controversy in the literature regarding adequate width of negative surgical margins in breast conservative therapy (BCT). It is now advocated that no tumor on an inked margin is a safe negative margin. Majority of studies on the outcomes of BCT had patients with favorable prognostic factors. Pakistani population has a high expression of unfavorable prognostic factors. The objective of this study was to determine a safe negative margin width in Pakistani population that undergoes BCT. A total of 603 patients with identifiable surgical margins underwent BCT from 1997 to 2009 in Shaukat Khanum Cancer Hospital. Patients were divided into close (≤2 mm), free (>2–10 mm), and wide (>10 mm) margin groups. Locoregional recurrence was defined as recurrence within the operated breast, ipsilateral axilla, or supraclavicular or internal mammary lymph nodes. Locoregional recurrence-free survival was calculated from the date of surgery to the date of locoregional recurrence. Five-year locoregional recurrence-free survival was determined for margin groups. Univariate and multivariate Cox proportional hazard analyses were performed to determine independent predictors of locoregional recurrence. A total of 415 (69 %) patients were |
