Tumour-infiltrating lymphocytes. H&E stain.
Tumour-infiltrating lymphocytes, abbreviated TILs, is the presence of many lymphoctyes between tumour cells.
TILs in the context of colorectal carcinoma are dealt with in intratumoural lymphocytic response in colorectal carcinoma.
General
Common finding in a large number of tumours:
| Tumour | Association |
|---|---|
| Colorectal carcinoma | microsatellite instability[1] |
| Malignant melanoma | |
| Non-small cell lung cancer | associated with anti-PD-L1 response[2] |
| Ovarian serous carcinoma | good prognosis[3] |
