“…MMS offers an alternative to blind excision of EMPD, or excision with frozen‐section sampling of a fraction of the margins. It is reported that MMS could decrease the rate of local recurrence by improving the sensitivity of surgical margin evaluation, because it allowed the entire margin to be inspected rather than step sectioning intervals (Bae et al, ; Hendi et al, ; Lorente‐Luna, Jimenez Blazquez, Sanchez Herreros, & Cuevas Santos, ). Excisions performed with complete microscopic examination would permit the greatest assurance of tumor eradication, so it could preserve the greatest possible amount of normal tissue.…”
