Zusammenfassung

In den letzten Jahren wurde eine intensive Diskussion um die Definition des freien Resektionsrandes geführt. Trotz der Wirkung von Strahlen- und Systemtherapie ist ein positiver Resektionsrand bei der brusterhaltenden und der ablativen Operation des Mammakarzinoms nach wie vor mit einer erhöhten Lokalrezidivrate assoziiert. Ein durch den Pathologen bestätigter positiver Resektionsrand führt daher zu Folgeoperationen, die für die Patientin in vielerlei Hinsicht belastend sind und die nachfolgende adjuvante Therapie verzögern können. Das Gebiet der intraoperativen Resektionsrandmessung wird intensiv beforscht, zahlreiche Methoden und Technologien wurden entwickelt, um den Brustoperateur zu unterstützen. Manche, wie Schnellschnittdiagnostik, Imprintzytologie, Ultraschall und Radiofrequenzspektroskopie, sind bereits in der klinischen Routine etabliert. Andere, wie Nahinfrarotbildgebung, Röntgendiffraktion, Hochfrequenzultraschall und Mikro-Computertomographie sind noch experimentell. In diesem Beitrag wird der aktuelle Stand der Definition eines freien Resektionsrandes behandelt und versucht, einen Überblick über die Techniken zur intraoperativen Resektionsrandbeurteilung zu geben.

Abstract

In recent years there has been an intensive discussion about how to define a negative surgical resection margin. Despite the impact of radiation and systemic therapy a positive margin in breast surgery is associated with an increased risk of local recurrence. Thus, a positive margin confirmed by the pathologist results in further surgery that is troublesome for the patient in several ways and can also delay the initiation of adjuvant treatment. Therefore, the field of intraoperative margin assessment was intensively investigated and methods and technologies have been developed to support the breast surgeon in the operating theater. Some of these developments, such as frozen sections, touch imprint cytology, intraoperative ultrasound and radiofrequency spectroscopy are now established in the clinical routine. Others, such as near-infrared optical imaging, X-ray diffraction, high-frequency ultrasound and micro-computed tomography (CT) are still in the experimental stage. This article illustrates the current status of defining a negative surgical margin and gives an overview of the various and innovative technologies for intraoperative margin assessment.
