What is the optimal means of staging colon cancer?
Advances in Surgery 2013
Although staging for colon cancer has become more complex over time, it is not clear that this complexity has improved prognostic assessment. Even with revisions in the 7th edition of the AJCC staging system, a clear rank order of prognosis from substage to substage has not been established. Improved staging models will need to be developed, and attempts at further identifying those high-risk patients within each stage may be clinically useful. Through improved quality measures with lymph node yield, advances in colon cancer staging accuracy have been made over the last decade. Determining how to incorporate ultrastaging and molecular techniques will be the challenge for future staging models.
