RESUMO
Early stages of cervical cancer in young women need conservative treatments. Electrosurgical therapies (LLETZ, LEEP, SWETZ, NETZ) have been recommended for these women. However, there are recommendations to perform a second excision when the specimen margins are not free of disease. This can lead to some important complications. This article aims to verify the frequency of residual invasive or microinvasive disease after the excisional procedure in women with IA1CC. Data on women with IA1CC diagnosed between 1990 and 2022, were retrieved from medical records. Post-treatment disease was detected during a second surgical procedure or postoperative follow-up. Among the 69 included women, three (4.3 percent; CI95 percent 0-9.2) had residual microinvasive lesions, while none showed invasive disease during a second procedure or follow-up. Only the age of 37 years or more was significantly related to the presence of preinvasive or microinvasive residual lesions. Nearly 80 percent of the women who underwent a second procedure showed no residual lesions. The absence of invasive disease in a second procedure or during the follow-up of these women and the large proportion of women with no residual lesion questions the need for a new surgical procedure even when the surgical margins of the initial specimen are involved.

Introdução: Analisar fatores associados e taxa de positividade de margem cirúrgica após ressecção primária de Câncer de Pele Não Melanoma (CNM). Métodos: Estudo transversal, quantitativo, realizado mediante a revisão de prontuários de pacientes submetidos à ressecção cirúrgica de carcinoma basocelular (CBC) e espinocelular (CEC) de pele. Foram estudadas as seguintes variáveis: idade, tipo de câncer, localização, diâmetro, variante histológica, presença de ulceração, presença e ressecção de lesões associadas e presença de comprometimento de margens cirúrgicas. Resultados: Foram inclusos 183 paciente no estudo. Destes, 130 eram CBC (71%) e 53 eram CEC (29%). A taxa global de comprometimento de margem foi de 13,1%, sendo 21 CBC (16%) e 3 CEC (5,66%). Margens cirúrgicas positivas estiveram mais associadas a lesões do tipo CBC (p<0,05) e em lesões localizadas em nariz e pálpebra (p<0,05). Presença de ulceração, diâmetro das lesões e variante histológica não foram associadas a uma maior taxa de ressecções incompletas. Conclusão: Nossa taxa global de ressecção incompleta de Câncer de Pele (CNM) apresenta-se semelhante ao encontrado na literatura. Lesões por CBC ou localizadas em nariz e pálpebra têm maiores taxas de positividade de margem após ressecção primária (AU)
Introduction: To analyze associated factors and surgical margin positivity rate after primary resection of Non-Melanoma Skin Cancer (NMC). Methods: A cross-sectional, quantitative study was carried out by reviewing medical records of patients submitted to surgical resection of basal cell carcinoma (BCC) and squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) of the skin. The following variables were studied: age, type of cancer, location, diameter, histological variant, presence of ulceration, presence and resection of associated lesions, and presence of surgical margins involvement. Results: 183 patients were included in the study. Of these, 130 were BCC (71%) and 53 were SCC (29%). The overall rate of margin involvement was 13.1%, of which 21 were CBC (16%) and 3 SCC (5.66%). Positive surgical margins were more associated with BCC lesions (p <0.05) and lesions located in the nose and eyelid (p <0.05). Presence of ulceration, lesion diameter and histological variant were not associated with a higher rate of incomplete resections. Conclusion: Our overall rate of incomplete resection of Skin Cancer is similar to that found in the literature. Lesions by BCC or located in the nose and eyelid have higher rates of margin positivity after primary resection (AU)
