Résumé

The management of endoscopically resected pT1 colorectal cancer (CRC) relies on nodal metastasis risk estimation based on the assessment of specific histopathological features. Avoiding the overtreatment of metastasis-free patients represents a crucial unmet clinical need. By analyzing a consecutive series of 207 pT1 CRCs treated with colectomy and lymphadenectomy, this study aimed to develop a novel clinicopathological score to improve pT1 CRC metastasis prediction. First, we established the clinicopathological profile of metastatic cases: lymphovascular invasion (OR: 23.8; CI: 5.12-110.9) and high-grade tumor budding (OR: 5.21; CI: 1.60-16.8) correlated with an increased risk of nodal metastasis, while age at diagnosis >65 years (OR: 0.26; CI: 0.09-0.71) and high tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes (OR: 0.19; CI: 0.06-0.59) showed a protective effect. Combining these features, we built a five-tier risk score that, applied to our series, identified cases with a higher risk (score ≥ 2) of nodal metastasis (OR: 7.7; CI: 2.4-24.4). Notably, a score of 0 was only assigned to cases with no metastases (13/13 cases) and all the score 4 samples (2/2 cases) showed nodal metastases. In conclusion, we developed an effectively combined score to assess pT1 CRC nodal metastasis risk. We believe that its adoption within a multidisciplinary pT1 unit could improve patients' clinical management and limit surgical overtreatment.
