The '''surgical margins''', often simply referred to as '''margins''', are the set of surfaces that were cut by the surgeon in order to remove the specimen from the body. The distance between the tumour and the margin is called the '''surgical clearance''', a term that may be used interchangeably with the term ''surgical margin''.<ref name=pmid8443747>{{Cite journal | last1 = Ng | first1 = IO. | last2 = Luk | first2 = IS. | last3 = Yuen | first3 = ST. | last4 = Lau | first4 = PW. | last5 = Pritchett | first5 = CJ. | last6 = Ng | first6 = M. | last7 = Poon | first7 = GP. | last8 = Ho | first8 = J. | title = Surgical lateral clearance in resected rectal carcinomas.
