Filter by:A single-centre, randomised clinical trial of patients affected by periampullary cancer who underwent pancreaticoduodenectomies which included two different types of specimen margination: arm A (multicolour inking) and arm B (monocolour inking). The randomisation of the specimen was made after the resection, blinded for the surgeons involved in the operation. The primary endpoint was the overall R1 resection rate and its difference between the two arms. The secondary endpoints were the R1 resection rate in each margin and its difference between the two arms, and the impact of margin status on survival. A sample size of 18 patients was required.
