A Real-World Analysis of Oncological Outcomes in Patients with Oral Squamous Cell Carcinoma Requiring Marginal Mandibulectomy for Achieving Clear Surgical Margins
While MM can achieve favorable surgical margins in selected OSCC patients, microscopic bone involvement compromises DFS. Given the low incidence of bone involvement and high rate of negative margins, more conservative approaches might be justified in select patients. However, these findings require further validation in a larger cohort.
