Tumour budding in cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma: A novel prognosis risk factor.

An association was found between tumour budding and most known risk factors in cSCC. We found findings that indicate that the presence of tumour budding is associated with a worse prognosis in terms of LNM, OS and DSS. This supports the results of previous work which has suggested that budding could be related to high-risk cSCC.
