Factores predictores de la aparición de tumor residual en pacientes reintervenidas tras cirugía conservadora por cáncer de mama

Other factors independently related to the occurrence of positive margins were tumoral size, axillary infiltration, and involvement of more than 2 margins. These factors should also be taken into account during surgical planning.
