Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Histopathological growth patterns (HGPs) are critical prognostic biomarkers in colorectal liver metastases (CRLM), yet their molecular drivers remain unclear. This study aims to validate the prognostic value of HGPs in synchronous CRLM and explore their spatial transcriptomic underpinnings. METHODS: Clinicopathological data from 182 patients with surgically resected synchronous CRLM were analyzed....
