The clinical significance of lymph node micrometastasis in stage I and stage II colorectal cancer
2008
Aim
Recent advances in immunohistochemical techniques have made it possible to identify micrometastasis using antibodies to cytokeratins (CK). The aim of the study was to determine the prevalence and prognostic significance of immunohistochemically detected micrometastasis (IHM) in patients with localised colorectal cancer (CRC) (Dukes’ A and B). A further aim was to study the prognostic role of histopathological factors such as vascular invasion.
