Investigation of three alternative histopathological scoring methods at the invasive tumour front in colorectal cancer by Walaiphorn Woraharn, Ashley McCulloch, Christopher Bigley, Phimmada Hatthakarnkul, Kathryn Pennel, Peter Alexander, Hester vanWyk, Antonia Roseweir, Jennifer Hay, Noori Maka, James Park, Nigel B Jamieson, Joanne Edwards, Campbell SD Roxburgh

“…High scores with the Karamitopoulou and Taskin methods correlated significantly with adverse prognostic factors, particularly advanced T stage (p < 0.001), N stage (p < 0.001), and the presence of peritoneal involvement (p < 0.001). The survival rate of the TGP method demonstrated that patients with an infiltrative growth pattern had significantly worse CRC survival compared to those with pushing and intermediate growth patterns (p < 0.001) and the TGP method retained its independence as a prognostic factor in multivariable Cox regression analysis only for colon cancer‐specific survival (p < 0.001). …”
