In breast cancer patients with a positive margin on permanent tissue but not on frozen, do you recommend re-excision or just proceed with radiation?

Given the difficulty in identifying the location of the positive margin, would you push to re-excise?

We would favor re-excision as the risk of IBTR is high.
