Role of lymph node yield and lymph node ratio in predicting outcomes in non‐metastatic colorectal cancer

BACKGROUND: Lymph node yield (LNY) of 12 or more in resection of colorectal cancer is recommended in current international guidelines. Although a low LNY (less than 12) is associated with poorer outcome in some studies, its prognostic value is unclear in patients with early‐stage colorectal or recta...
