Aim: Microscopically positive resection margins (R1) are associated with poorer outcomes in colon cancer. While the sequalae of a positive margin related to the primary tumour (R1Tumour) are relatively well known, comparatively less is known when the positive margin pertains to a metastatic lymph node (R1LNM). The aim of this study is to confirm the significance and impact of R1LNM margins in colon cancer patients.

In consequence, MC is exceedingly challenging to detect; numerous immunohistochemistry tests are required in order to distinguish it from the other subtypes of CRC.
