Richard Sassun: It is time to give Tumor Deposit a proper role in the staging
Richard Sassun, Colorectal Surgery Fellow at Mayo Clinic Rochester, reshared a post by JAMA Surgery on X:
“AJCC will soon release the 9th edition TNM staging system for colon cancer.
It is time to give Tumor Deposit a proper role in the staging, as 17.1% of patients were understaged in this recent article. Different stages means different treatment!!”
Quoting JAMA Surgery‘s post:
“Sassun-Mayo N/tumor, lymph node, and metastasis staging provided superior overall survival stratification vs the current AJCC staging, suggesting that their implementation could improve prognostication in colon cancer.”
Validated Integration of Tumor Deposits in N Staging for Prognostication in Colon Cancer.
