Fig 1 Optimal margin cutoff for recurrence-free survival (in mm) (≤ 9 mm). (A) Distribution of cases by margin distance with cutoff noted. (B) Kaplan-Meier survival estimates of probability of recurrence-free survival over time (in months) for patients with margin distance greater than 9 mm (in red) and less than or equal to 9 mm (in green).
