Questions and Answers

What is the main reason that the role of frozen analysis of margins in oral cavity cancer has been heavily debated?

  • It is only beneficial for smaller localized tumors.
  • It is not highly accurate in predicting the final histologic analysis of the tumor specimen.
  • It has a poor correlation with the final histologic analysis of the submitted tissue samples.
  • It is not cost-effective for surgeons to perform. (correct)

    • According to the passage, what is the main limitation of frozen-section analysis in oral cavity cancer?

  • It is not able to reliably predict whether the entire tumor surface of the final specimen will be clear of close or involved margins. (correct)
  • It is only beneficial for smaller localized tumors.
  • It has a poor correlation with the final histologic analysis of the submitted tissue samples.
  • It is not highly accurate in predicting the final histologic analysis of the tumor specimen.

    • Which of the following statements best summarizes the main conclusion of the passage?

  • Frozen-section analysis is more beneficial in smaller localized tumors compared to larger or more advanced oral cavity cancers.
  • The ability of frozen-section analysis to predict clear margins in oral cavity cancer surgery is limited, leading to its use being heavily debated. (correct)
  • Frozen-section analysis is not cost-effective and its role in oral cavity cancer surgery should be abandoned.
  • Frozen-section analysis is highly accurate and has a high correlation with final histologic analysis, making it a reliable tool for oral cavity cancer surgery.
