The presence of high tumor budding in colorectal carcinomas is a significant pathological feature indicative of a high potential for lymph node metastasis. Our aim was to investigate the prognostic impact of tumor budding in ampullary carcinomas. We conducted a cohort of 101 consecutive ampullary carcinoma resections to evaluate tumor budding, macroscopic and microscopic subtypes, lymphatic/vascular/perineural invasions, and other histopathological parameters.
