Microsatellite Instability Is Common in Colorectal Cancer in Native Nigerians

7 May 2017

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Colorectal cancer (CRC) is the fifth most common cancer in Africa, with significant differences in incidence, biology and clinical behavior from other populations. MATERIALS AND METHODS: We studied prevalence and clinicopathological features of microsatellite instability (MSI) and young onset CRC in 83 archival samples from the University of Ibadan, Nigeria. RESULTS: Nigerian cases of CRC were...
