2. INTRODUCTION
Colorectal carcinoma(CRC) is the carcinoma
affecting caecum, colon and rectum.
Fourth most common carcinoma in male and 3rd
most common in female.
CRC constitute 10% of all cancer related death.
Peak incidence: 60-79 yrs.
Lowest incidence in India and Africa.
4. Symptoms associated with CRC
Pain
Rectal bleeding
Change of bowel
habit
Feeling of mass
Weight loss
5.
6. Risk factors for CRC
Age >50 years
Sedentary lifestyle, Diet, Obesity
Family History of CRC
Inflammatory Bowel Disease (UC>CD)
Adenomas/ Polyps
Hereditary Syndromes -- familial adenomatous
polyposis (FAP), HNPCC,Turcot’s syndrome,
Gardener’s syndrome etc.
7. Factors implicated in
colorectal carcinogenesis
Increased risk
Consumption of red meat
Animal and saturated fat
Refined carbohydrates
smoking
alcohol
8. MODIFIABLE FACTORS
Alcohol consumption
1.Increase mucosal proliferation
2. Increase tissue nitrosamine
level
3. Activation of liver
procarcinogen
smoking
Tobacco contain polycyclic
aromatic hydrocarbons(PAH),
heterocyclic aromatic
amines(HAA), N- nitrosamine
Causes DNA damage in colonic
epithelium
Obesity
Adipokines like leptin and
adiponectins secretate from
adipocyte which slowly
changes the colonic
epithelium.
Consumption of red meat
Increased 2ndary bile acids
creat chaos within colonic
epithelium causes membrane
perturbation and DNA
damage.
9. Factors implicated in
colorectal carcinogenesis
Decreased risk
dietary fiber
vegetables
fruits
antioxidant vitamins
calcium
folate & Vitamin B
15. Flat adenomas:
Gross:flat or slightly
raised plaques.
M/E:tubular adenoma
with dysplastic
epithelium limited to
luminal surface of crypt
associated with
underlying non
neoplastic epithelium
16. FAMILIAL ADENOMATUS POLYPOSIS
FAP SYNDROME: caused
by mutation of APC gene on
chromosome 5q.Classified
as
Classic FAP-over 500
adenomas that carpet mucosal
surface. At least 100 polyps is
necessary for the diagnosis.
Most are tubular adenomas.
Occur some 20yrs earlier than
ordinary CRC.
Prevention: early detection and
prophylactic colectomy in at
risk patients.
Attenuated FAP: fewer
polyps (<100 no) ,most of them
in proximal colon.
17. Gardner’s syndrome:
intestinal polyps, multiple osteomas,epidermal
cysts, fibromatosis.
Lesions show coexistence of somatic and germline
mutations of APC gene.
Turcot’s syndrome:
Adenomatous polyps, CNS tumors (glioblastomas),
AR inheritance.
Mutation of APC/mismatch repair gene.
18. HNPCC SYNDROME
AD inheritance.Due to mutation in mismatch repair
gene.
Characterized by colorectal Ca with(lynch2) or
without(lynch1)extraintestinal tumors.
It is multiple,commonly right sided , mucinous ,
poorly differentiated, associated with Crohn’s like
lymphoid infiltrate.
Errors in mismatch repair gene leads to expansion
or contraction of tandem repeat sequences leading
to microsatellite instability
19. Hamartomatous polyposis syn.
Peutz Jegher’s syn.-
Epithelial mutation of LKB1
gene on chr.19p(acts as
tumor suppressor gene)
Loss of this gene play a role
in extra-intestinal tumor
formation..
20. Genetic abnormality in
stromal cells of colonic
polyp
Mutation in
SMAD4/DPC4 seen in
some cases.
Predisposes to cancer by
stromal driven epithelial
proliferation.
This suggests an
alternative hamartoma-
adenoma-carcinoma
sequence.
Juvenile polyposis syndrome
24. ADENOCARCINOMA
Usually well to
moderately differentiated
adenocarcinoma.
Consistently elicits
inflammatory and
desmoplastic reactions.
Tumor may be seen
invading all layers of
bowel extending into
pericolic fat, perineural
spaces and viens.
25. MUCINOUS ADENOCARCINOMA
Define by >50% tumor volume
composed by extra cellular
mucin.
Large glandular structure
with pool of extracellular
mucin.
Worst prognosis
Related to MSI-H
26. SIGNET CELL ADENOCARCINOMA
It is rare in colorectal
region.
Presence of >50% tumor
cells showing signet ring cell
feature.
Intra cytoplasmic mucin
vacuole- push the nucleus to
the periphery.
High grade tumor and worst
prognosis
27. MEDULLARY CARCINOMA
Rare variant.
Pushing border at the
tumor edge.
Sheets of malignant cells
with vesicular nuclei,
prominent nucleoli and
abundant eosinophilic
cytoplasm.
Infiltration by intra
epithelial lymphocytes
Favourable prognosis.
28. SMALL CELL NUROENDOCRINE
CARCINOMA
<1%,poor
prognosis,almost all
cases having lymph node
and liver metastasis
1/3 arise from typical
adenomas
May show areas of
squamous differentiation
IHC:express neuron
specific enolase,Leu-
7,synaptophysin,chromo
granin.
29. VERY RARE VARIENTS
Serrated adenocarcinoma
Cribriform comedo type adenocarcinoma
Micropapillary adenocarcinoma
Adenosquamous carcinoma
Spindle cell carcinoma
Undifferentiated carcinoma

antigen(LEA) identified in tumor tissue and
sera.
Villin a cytoskeletal protein higly sensitive in
well &moderately differentiated carcinoma.
↑ed expression of cathepsin B.
Calretinin in minority of cases(also in
mesothelioma) shows positivity.
IMMUNOHISTOCHEMISTRY
34. CRC CARCINOGENESIS
MULTISTEP PATHWAY BIG BANG THEORY
Potentially a sequence of clonal
expansions throughout tumor
development.
After the initial transformation, tumors
grow as a single expansion of a mix of
clones.
Selection favors some clones and kills
others.
Selection is unimportant (after initial
transformation)
Clones compete. Subclonal mutations are
the result of selection of de novo clones.
Clones do not compete. Subclonal
mutations appear early (right after
transition to advanced tumor)
Heterogeneity varies from region to
region.
Uniformly high intra-tumor
heterogeneity
35.
36. APC: encodes a protein that promotes cell migration and
adhesion. Also regulates the level of β-catenin. Lost earliest in
adenomas.
K-ras: Most frequently activated oncogene in CA colon, play a
role in intracellular signal transduction. Loss of K-ras prevent
apoptosis and promote growth.
P53: Loss of p53 seen in 70-80% of cases. Loss of P53 and
LOH of 18q cause chromosomal deletion(DCC) make
chromosomal instability.
Loss of SMADS:lack of SMAD2 and SMAD4 increases GI
tumorogenesis by increasing TGF-β which normally cause cell
cycle inhibition.
Accumulation of these mutations lead to colorectal carcinomas.
37. MSI PATHWAY
1. Microsatellites are nucleotide repeat sequence form insertion or
deletion loops during DNA replication.
2. MMR correct insertion and deletion loops and keep the microsatellite
at germline length.

3.BRAF mutated MSS
worst prognosis.
48. NEW DEVELOPMENT
18q/DCC increases disease severity.
K-RAS mutation result poor prognosis
THYMIDYLATE SYNTHASE 5FU
P27 cell cycle inhibitor
BCL-2 loss of it increases relapse
P53 loss of it causes tumor proliferation
EGFR- CETUXIMAB prevent invasion and
metastasis.
VEGF-BEVACIZUMAB prevent angiogenesis.
49. CONCLUSION
Colorectal adenocarcinoma is a heterogeneous
disease that involves multiple tumorigenic pathways.
Pathologic analysis provides histologic and
molecular information critical to appropriate patient
treatment, prognosis assessment, and family
counseling.
The molecular mechanisms in tumorogenesis will
certainly lead to the development of new targeted
therapies and new molecular tests, which will
ultimately benefit the patients and their families.
