Vascular Invasion is Underrecognized in Colorectal Cancer Using Conventional Hematoxylin and Eosin Staining
PURPOSE: METHODS: RESULTS:Vascular invasion was more commonly identified in Dukes C (pTanyN1/2) (vascular invasion seen in 24 of 25 cases by at least 1 method) than Dukes B tumors (pT3/4N0) (vascular invasion seen in 14 of 25 cases by at least 1 method). Vascular invasion was identified in significa...

METHODS:
RESULTS:Vascular invasion was more commonly identified in Dukes C (pTanyN1/2) (vascular invasion seen in 24 of 25 cases by at least 1 method) than Dukes B tumors (pT3/4N0) (vascular invasion seen in 14 of 25 cases by at least 1 method). Vascular invasion was identified in significantly more cases using elastic van gieson (24 cases; P = 0.0001), CD31 (18 cases; P = 0.0064), and CD34 (21 cases; P < 0.0001) than with hematoxylin and eosin alone (5 cases).
