Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Flat(-elevated) tubulovillous adenomas and adenocarcinomas of the colorectum constitute a specific type of neoplasm with superficial spreading growth. To establish their characteristics, a comparative investigation of a series of tumors was performed. METHODS: A total of 56 flat tubulovillous tumors (39 adenomas, 17 invasive carcinomas) and 154 polypoid tubular or villous tumors (77 adenomas, 77...
