Table 9. - Comparison of groups in relation to the final stage (only for patients with positive margins).

		Final stage		Total
		pT2 n = 8	pT3 n = 11	N = 19
Group	1	6 (66.7%)	3 (33.3%)	9 (100%)
	2	2 (20.0%)	8 (80.0%)	10 (100%)

p-value = 0.070 (Fisher’s exact test)

Through the result above, a statistical trend can be observed, (p<0.10) difference between the groups (80% vs. 33%).
