How would you treat epithelial-myoepithelial carcinoma of the parotid following resection with clear but close surgical margins?
The reports I've read indicate a fairly high rate of local recurrence and wanted to see if any can give guidance on this fairly rare tumor.

I would try to get the pathologist to nail down a grade. Low or intermediate, I would follow if close but negative. High, I would treat. I think that they are usually low grade. Really close on the 7th nerve, (<1-2 mm), I’d treat.
