Lymphatic channel density in colorectal adenocarcinoma

Abstract: In this study no significant association was seen between lymphatic channel density and site, size, stage and lymph node metastasis in colorectal carcinoma. This indicates that lymphatic channel proliferation does not influence tumor aggressiveness. Further studies are needed to validate our findings.

“…The LVD and its clinical relevance have been studied in colorectal carcinomas; however, the results are discordant. Several studies showed a correlation with metastasis or patient's adverse prognosis outcome [23-25, 27, 28, 32-35] where others found no correlation with relevant clinicopathological parameters [27,30,31,[36][37][38]. Such divergent results could be caused by the various antibodies and techniques used to highlight and assess lymphatics and LVD quantification [39].…”
