Prognostic differences between lymphoepithelioma-like colon carcinoma and colon adenocarcinoma

81-82

Inmaculada Lendínez Romero, Cristina González Puga, Pedro García Saura,

Lymphoepithelioma-like colon carcinoma (LELC) is rare. The Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) hasn´t been implicated in the pathogenesis of LELC of the colon, but they may in fact be more strongly associated with MSI. Its treatment is identical to adenocarcinoma. However, lymphocyte infiltration and microsatellite instability have been associated with better prognosis.
