My 7 yr old Kelpie Ginger had surgery for a mast cell tumor on her right hind leg
Biopsy report says:
1. "Surgical margins incomplete".............. My question-Does "incomplete" mean positive
2. "The MST extends to one of the cross-sectional cutaneous margins and to the deep margins and
entire excision cannot be verified".. .........My question-Does "cannot be verified" mean tumor not entirely excised

or unable to tell whether entirely excised?
Can anyone help me with this?
