Abstract

The clinical significance of the presence or absence of regional variations in histologic differentiation within a primary colorectal carcinoma was investigated in this study. Regional variations in histologic differentiation were judged to be present when the low power field of a microscope was occupied by cancer tissue cytologically and architecturally different from that of the surrounding area. Regional variations in histologic differentiation were noted in 153 (42%) of 368 primary carcinomas. Carcinomas with regional variations were of an anaplastic histologic type and had a higher incidence of lymph node metastasis and a worse prognosis than those without regional variations. Thus, the histologic diversity within a carcinoma is thought to be important for determining the prognosis of patients with colorectal cancer.
