Circumferential resection margin (CRM) size
correlates with overall survival
Prospective database, single institution study, N = 229
CRM size is a significant prognostic factor for overall
survival
40.6% of patients in this study had a CRM <1mm
Post operative chemoradiation did not alter survival in
patients with CRM <1mm
BUT smaller CRM may just reflect a larger tumour
