The “Real R0”: A Resection Margin Smaller Than 0.1 cm is Associated with a Poor Prognosis After Oncologic Esophagectomy

Abstract: Background Although resection margin (R) status is a widely used prognostic factor after esophagectomy, the definition of positive margins (R1) is not universal. The Royal College of Pathologists considers R1 resection to be a distance less than 0.1 cm, whereas the College of American Pathologists considers it to be a distance of 0.0 cm. This study assessed the predictive value of R status after oncologic esophagectomy, comparing survival and recurrence among patients with R0 resection (> 0.1-… Show more

“…Postoperative complications were graded according to the validated 5-scale Clavien classification, and major morbidity was defined as a grade >IIIAc [ 19 ]. The 8th version of the UICC/TNM system was used to assess the baseline and histologic tumor stage [ 20 ] whereas R0 status was defined as a <1 mm microscopic margin from the tumor [ 21 ]. The primary outcome was the rate of pathological complete response (pCR) in RCT and CT patients; this was defined as the complete sterilization of the primary tumor (TRG1 grade according to the Mandard regression system) [ 22 ].…”

“…The secondary endpoints will be (1) major pathological response (MPR), which will be recorded when 10% or fewer viable tumor cells are observed in the surgical resection specimen (14), and (2) the conversion rate of surgery and R0 resection rate. R0 resection will be de ned as a negative proximal, distal, and circumferential resection margin (15,16). The quality of life and nutritional status of patients will be assessed using the European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer (EORTC) Quality of Life Questionnaire Core 30 (QLQ-C30) and EORTC QLQ EC questionnaire (OES18) (17,18).…”
