Prognostic Impact of Surgical Margin Status on Overall Survival of Patients with Early Breast Cancer: A Retrospective Analysis from the Department for Women’s Medicine at Charité – University Hospital Berlin

Patients who underwent breast-conserving surgery in our study demonstrated favorable outcomes compared to patients after mastectomy. Although margin status did not significantly affect overall survival, larger multicenter studies are needed to evaluate the prognostic implications of margin involvement in breast cancer treatment in different tumor stages, tumor subtypes and local and systemic treatments.
