Study Results from Dalhousie University in the Area of Glottic Cancer Reported (Management of Positive Resection Margins Following Transoral Laser Microsurgery for Glottic Cancer).

A study conducted by Dalhousie University in Halifax, Canada, explored the management of positive resection margins (PMs) following transoral laser microsurgery (TLM) for glottic squamous cell carcinoma (SCC). The study found that re-resection was an appropriate treatment for cases of PMs, based on long-term data collected from 2007 to 2018. Close observation as a management strategy for PMs was discontinued due to a high rate of recurrence. The study concluded that re-resection is an effective treatment option for early-stage glottic SCC. [Extracted from the article]
