Abstract:
With the development of tumor immunology research, it has been recognized that the anti-tumor immune system function is better to predict the prognosis. Relationship between the tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes (TIL) and colorectal cancer has become one of the hot topics in research. Here we summarize the latest studies about the relationship between the TIL and clinicopathological factors, prognosis and microsatellite instability (MSI).
