## Abstract ## BACKGROUND. Early colorectal cancer (ECC) is curable by endoscopic local resection; however, 10% of patients with ECC exhibit lymph node (LN) metastasis. In the current study, accurate predictors for LN metastasis in patients with ECC were examined by using immunohistochemistry with
Several studies have indicated that frequent allelic losses in some specific chromosomal regions occur during colorectal cancer (CRC) progression. To clarify the correlation between such allelic losses and metastatic potential, the allelotype of lymph node-positive early CRCs, which are small but ex
