Tumour budding refers to lone tumour cells or small clusters of tumour cells at the advancing front of a tumour.[1]
General
- Poor prognosticator in colorectal carcinoma,[2] and invasive ductal carcinoma of the breast.[3]
Microscopic
Definition in rectal carcinoma - based on international consensus:[4]
- Tumour bud = 1-4 cell(s) -- at the tumour front.
Grading:
- Low grade: 0-4 tumour buds.
- Intermediate grade: 5-9 tumour buds.
- High grade: >=10 tumour buds.
Note:
- Assessed in a field area of 0.785 mm2.[4]
- Microscopes with a 22 mm eye pieces typically have a 0.2376 mm*mm field area with the 40x objective; thus, three fields is 0.7128 mm*mm.
- Tumour budding was previously assessed in a field of 0.385 mm2.[1]
- "Tumour buds suspended in pools of mucin should not be counted" as per the consensus.[4]
DDx:
- Poorly differentiated adenocarcinoma.

Sign out
There are <5 tumour buds/0.785 mm*mm; this tumour has low grade tumour budding.
There are 5-9 tumour buds/0.785 mm*mm; this tumour has intermediate grade tumour budding.
There are >=10 tumour buds/0.785 mm*mm; this tumour has high grade tumour budding.
Alternate
The tumour is NEGATIVE for significant tumour budding (<5 buds/0.785 mm*mm).
