Journal Title: IJSR-International Journal Of Scientific Research - Year 2017, Vol 6, Issue 12
Abstract
AJCC 8th edition recently exclude the extrinsic muscle invasion (EMI) from the T staging including depth as the only criteria up to T3 stage. We review the prognostic and predictive role of EMI and found it to be an important tool for prediction of lymph node metastasis and hence, it is an important prognostic feature.
