The Kaplan-Meier 5-year survivorship estimate curves among patients with unplanned excisions based on disease status at tumor bed excision show decreased (p = 0.06) disease-specific survival in patients with microscopic (69.8%; 95% CI, 53.1%–82.8%) or gross residual disease (66.7%; 95% CI, 24.1%–94.0%) versus no residual disease (87.5%; 95% CI, 62.3%–97.5%). The plus signs (no residual disease), solid circles (microscopically positive residual disease), and solid triangles (gross residual disease) along the curves represent censored patients.
