Abstract
Pathological examination in the operative theatre can help decrease the rate of recurrence in comparison with classical surgery using empiric margins. This method is reliable if performed by an experienced pathologist so that reconstruction can be undertaken before the definitive pathological results are obtained, improving patient comfort. These therapeutic options have a cost however in terms of equipment and personnel. Indications should be well chosen and balanced against the advantages of a two-phase classical procedure.
