Achieving a negative margin is essential in sarcoma surgery, however, metric margin width was not associated with disease-specific outcomes. Re-resection of unplanned R1-resections should be performed to control for LR and overall survival rates. As re-R0 cases were at significantly higher risk of DR, these patients should be followed up closely in standardized surveillance protocols.
