Predictive Factors of Positive Circumferential and Longitudinal Margins in Early T3 Colorectal Cancer Resection

Table 4

Multivariate logistic regression (Forward: Wald) for circumferential and longitudinal resection margins.

		B	SE	Sig.	OR
Circumferential resection margin	Gross appearance (infiltrating)	2.371	1.285	0.055	10.713
	Depth (pericolorectal tissue/serosa)	4.590	1.172	<0.001	98.460
Longitudinal resection margin	MVD (high)	0.679	0.351	0.053	1.972
	Vascular pattern (sinusoidal)	3.780	1.961	0.054	43.820
	Histopathological type (signet ring)	4.684	2.216	0.035	108.229

B: unstandardized coefficients; OR: odds ratio; CI: confidence interval; LL: lower limit.
