Tumour budding in colorectal carcinoma. H&E stain. (WC/Nephron)

Tumour budding refers to lone tumour cells or small clusters of tumour cells at the advancing front of a tumour.[1]

General

Microscopic

Definition in rectal carcinoma - based on international consensus:[4]

  • Tumour bud = 1-4 cell(s) -- at the tumour front.

Grading:

  • Low grade: 0-4 tumour buds.
  • Intermediate grade: 5-9 tumour buds.
  • High grade: >=10 tumour buds.

Note:

  • Assessed in a field area of 0.785 mm2.[4]
    • Microscopes with a 22 mm eye pieces typically have a 0.2376 mm*mm field area with the 40x objective; thus, three fields is 0.7128 mm*mm.
