Purpose: Surgical pathology reports play an integral role in postoperative management of head and neck cancer patients. Pathology reports of complex head and neck resections must convey critical information to all involved clinicians. Previously, we demonstrated the utility of 3D specimen and defect scanning for communicating margin status and documenting the location of supplemental margins. We introduce a newly designed permanent pathology report which improves documentation of intraoperative margin mapping and extent of corresponding supplemental margins harvested.
Methods: We test the hypothesis that gaps in understanding exist for head and neck resection pathology reports across providers. A cross-sectional exploratory study using human-centered design was implemented to evaluate the existing permanent pathology report with respect to understanding margin status. Pathologists, surgeons, radiation oncologists, and medical oncologists from United States-based medical institutions were surveyed. The results supported a redesign of our surgical pathology template, incorporating 3D specimen / defect scans and annotated radiographic images indicating the location of inadequate margins requiring supplemental margins, or indicating frankly positive margins discovered on permanent section.
Results: Forty-seven physicians completed our survey. Analyzing surgical pathology reports, 28/47 (60%) respondents reported confusion whether re-excised supplemental margins reflected clear margins, 20/47 (43%) reported uncertainty regarding final margin status, and 20/47 (43%) reported the need for clarity regarding the extent of supplemental margins harvested intraoperatively. From this feedback, we designed a new pathology report template; 61 permanent pathology reports were compiled with this new template over a 12-month period.
Conclusion: Feedback from survey respondents led to a redesigned permanent pathology report that offers detailed visual anatomic information regarding intraoperative margin findings and exact location/size of harvested supplemental margins. This newly designed report reconciles frozen and permanent section results and includes annotated radiographic images such that clinicians can discern precise actions taken by surgeons to address inadequate margins, as well as to understand the location of areas of concern that may influence adjuvant radiation planning.
