Abstract
A negative surgical margin in organ-confined prostate cancer is considered to be one criterion indicating a high-quality radical prostatectomy. Possible risk factors for positive surgical margins—including prostate volume, obesity or nerve-sparing surgery—have been investigated, but results are inconclusive. Cumulative evidence, however, indicates that surgical margin status is strongly influenced by surgical experience.
