Nomogram as a novel predictive tool for lymph node metastasis in T1 colorectal cancer treated with endoscopic resection: a nationwide, multicenter study

Abstract

This is the first nomogram to include submucosal invasion depth and tumor budding for use in routine pathologic diagnosis based on data from a nationwide multi-institutional study. This nomogram, developed with real-world data, should improve decision-making for an appropriate treatment strategy for T1 CRC.
