it indicates that the surgery has been able to completely remove the cancer tissues from your wife's body, as per the tissue examined!
it is a relatively good report however, follow-up CT scan or PET-CT should be done time to time as small metastatic disease could not be excluded!
all the best while visiting the surgeon next time!
