Tumor Deposits Predict Poorer Outcomes in Non-Metastatic Colon Mucinous Adenocarcinoma

This study analyzes tumor deposits (TDs) in non-metastatic colon mucinous adenocarcinoma (CMAC) patients, revealing that TDs are independently associated with worse cancer-specific survival. Using data from the SEER database and an external cohort, researchers developed a model to predict the presence of TDs, highlighting their prognostic significance beyond lymph node involvement.
