Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND AND AIMS: Morphologically, colorectal nodule-aggregating tumors are quite different from polypoid-type colorectal tumors that develop via the adenoma-carcinoma sequence. Although polypoid-type colorectal tumors are well known to have a high incidence of K-ras gene mutation and p53 overexpression, colorectal nodule-aggregating tumors have not been examined in terms of genetic changes and...
