All rights reserved.BACKGROUND: Microscopic analysis of tumor budding (TB) may be an essential predictive tool for regional lymph node metastases in colorectal cancer, especially among patients in intermediate stages, who exhibit considerable prognostic variability. AIMS: The aim of this study was to assess the predictive power of BT regarding the presence of lymph node metastases and its association with other characteristics related to colorectal carcinoma progression. METHODS: This is a cross-sectional, retrospective study with a quantitative approach, focusing on the review of medical records and histopathological reports of patients who underwent oncologic surgery for colorectal cancer. RESULTS: A total of 153 patient records were examined, with a predominance of the 61-70 age group and a male majority (50.98%). Adenocarcinoma not otherwise specified was the most common histological type (60.78%), with the majority exhibiting moderate differentiation (87.58%). From the total sample, 97 cases (63.39%) exhibited TB, with 51.55% classified as a high budding score. Invasion of adipose tissue/subserosa was the most prevalent, occurring in 46.41% of cases. Regional lymph node metastases and angiolymphatic invasion were observed in 66 and 101 patients, respectively. Cross-tabulation analysis showed a statistically significant association between TB and lymph node metastasis (p<0.05). CONCLUSIONS: The relationship between TB and lymph node metastasis highlights the significance of this histological factor in the risk stratification and prognosis of patients with colorectal cancer, complementing TNM staging. Therefore, the assessment of tumor budding is crucial in histopathological reports, potentially influencing additional therapeutic decisions.
