Peritumoural lymphocytic response. H&E stain.
Peritumoural lymphocytic response is an uncommon finding in colorectal carcinoma that is associated with a better prognosis and microsatellite instability.[1]
It is also known as Crohn's like reaction,[2] Crohn's-like lymphoid reaction and Crohn-like response.[3]
General
- Finding associated with improved survival in colorectal carcinoma.[1]
Microscopic
There are two sets of criteria (Ueno and Graham). The Ueno criteria have a better inter-rater reproducibility than the older Graham criteria[4] and are less complicated.
Ueno criteria (2013)
Required criteria:[5]
- Non-MALT lymphoid aggregates (peritumoural) >= 1 mm.
Ignore:
- Muscosa-associated lymphoid tissue (MALT) = mucosal lymphoid aggregates, submucosal lymphoid aggregates adjacent to the musuclaris mucosae.
- Lymph nodes - these have a (fibrous) capsule.
- Irregular shape (not round).
Graham criteria (1990)
Required criteria:[4]
- Peritumoral:
- Lymphoid aggregates with germinal centres focally.
- Stellate fibrosis.
- No previous clinical and pathologic evidence of Crohn's disease.
Note:
- Should not be confused with intratumoural lymphocytic response.
- The intratumoural lymphocytic response is associated with MSI-H cancers.
