Abstract
BACKGROUND: Determining the depth of invasion of early stage colorectal cancer has been emphasized as a means of improving endoscopic diagnostic accuracy. Recent studies have focused on other pathological risk factors for lymph node metastasis (LNM). We investigated the significance of depth of invasion and predictive properties of other endoscopic findings. METHODS: We retrospectively investigated 846 patients with submucosal invasive (T1) colorectal cancer who received an accurate pathological diagnosis and were treated between January 2005 and December 2016. Pathological risk factors associated with LNM were reviewed. We divided patients into groups: low-risk T1 colorectal cancer (LRC; no risk factors) and high-risk T1 colorectal cancer (HRC; exhibiting lymphovascular invasion, tumor budding grade of 2/3, and/or poor differentiation) and studied predictive endoscopic factors for HRC. RESULTS: Significant risk factors for LNM in multivariate analysis were lymphovascular invasion [odds ratio (OR) 8.09; 95% confidence interval (CI) 3.84-17.1], tumor budding (OR 1.89; 95% CI 1.09-3.29), and histological differentiation (OR 2.09; 95% CI 1.12-3.89). The LNM-positive rate with only deep submucosal invasion was 1.6%. Significant predictive factors for HRC in multivariate analysis identified rectal tumor location (OR 1.92; 95% CI 1.35 -2.72, depression (OR 2.73; 95% CI 1.96 -3.80), protuberance within the depression (OR 2.58; 95% CI 1.39- 4.78), expansiveness (OR 2.39; 95% CI 1.27- 4.50), and loss of mucosal patterns (OR 1.90; 95% CI 1.20 -3.01) as significant factors. CONCLUSIONS: Rectal tumor location, depression, protuberance within the depression, expansiveness, and loss of mucosal patterns could be predictive factors for HRC.
