{{Short description|Cancer removal method}}
'''CCPDMA''' is the [[acronym]] for "complete circumferential peripheral and deep margin assessment". It is the preferred method for the removal of certain [[cancer]]s, especially [[skin cancer]]s.<ref>http://wwwu.tsgh.ndmctsgh.edu.tw/commcpc/images/nccn/Non-Melanoma%20Skin%20Cancer-2007.pdf {{dead link|date=March 2013}}</ref><ref>http://wwwu.tsgh.ndmctsgh.edu.tw/commcpc/images/nccn/dfsp%20NCCN%202004.pdf{{dead link|date=March 2013}}</ref>▼

There are two forms of CCPDMA surgery: [[Mohs surgery]] and surgical excision coupled with margin assessment

== Comparison to alternatives ==
The first advantage of CCPDMA method is that it allows for the complete examination of the entire surgical margin of the specimen. The second advantage of CCPDMA is allowing the [[surgeon]] to remove only a very small surgical margin. As the CCPDMA surgery is frequently performed using [[frozen section]] pathology, immediate reporting of positive surgical margin is made, and the tumor can be completely removed in the same day. Traditional pathology processing is called "bread loafing", and only allows for the partial examination of the surgical margin. Some surgeons send the specimen out for processing, and the result of the surgical margin assessment may not made until days later.<ref>Kimyai-Asadi A, et al. Dermatol Surg. 2007 Dec;33(12):1434-9; discussion 1439-41. Margin involvement after the excision of [[melanoma]] in situ: the need for complete en face examination of the surgical margins.</ref>▼
CCPDMA is superior to standard [[bread loafing]] due to very low [[false negative]] error rate. Bread loafing extrapolates the margin exam of a few representative slides to the entire [[surgical margin]]. CCPDMA allows for the complete examination of the surgical margin without statistical extrapolation and assumptions.{{cn|date=January 2022}}

CCPDMA is subject to the basic principles of histology sectioning. From a physical standpoint, the true margin is never assessed because a thin face margin has to be cut through in order to make the slide for examination
