Different pathways of colorectal carcinogenesis
IColorectal cancer is not one disease, it consists of different subentities, developed through different pathways of carcinogenesis
ICertain mutations may be present as either drivers orpassengers and thus may have different prognostic valuein different pathways

I Molecular testing: Genotyping 5
microsatellites allows the characterization
of microsatellite tumor instability
― If at least 2 of the 5 microsatellites are unstable, the
tumor phenotype is “MSI-high” or dMMR
I Immunohistochemical testing: Tumor tissue
can be checked for expression of DNA
mismatch repair protein MLH1, MSH2,
MSH6 or PMS1.
• Loss of expression indicates that the
corresponding gene is not being appropriately
expressed and suggests the existence of a
mutation or epigenetic silencing

Summary prognostic markers
I pTNM is still the best validated prognostic marker in colorectal cancerand the basis for therapeutic decision making
I Regression grading for rectal cancer and liver metastases correlateswith outcome
I MSI and BRAF are prognostic markers
I MSI-status must be tested for molecular grading in mucinous, undifferentiated and signet ring cell cancers (WHO 2010)
I MSI-status should be tested for its prognostic value and for detection of patients with Lynch-Syndrom
I Prognostic impact of BRAF depends on MSI-status
