It contributes to completeness and comprehensibility of pathology reports and ultimately patient care. As of today, two major institutions publish synoptic reporting templates, the College of American Pathologists (CAP) and the International Collaboration for Cancer Reporting (ICCR). Synoptic protocols are available for all major cancer types and provide not only a standardized terminology and a checklist for completeness of reports, but also facilitate uniform utilization of diagnostic criteria. Additionally, both CAP and ICCR protocols are accompanied by detailed and up-to-date reference lists and thereby represent a valuable source of information even when synoptic reporting is not used. The benefits and challenges of implementation of synoptic reporting are discussed, in particular with regard to reporting in German.</p>","PeriodicalId":54641,"journal":{"name":"Pathologe","volume":"43 1","pages":"57-62"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-02-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC8789623/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"39488449","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A tumor regression grading (TRG; also tumor regression grade) categorizes the extent of the regressive changes after a neoadjuvant treatment. There are several TRG systems for gastrointestinal carcinomas that relate either to the extent of the therapy-induced fibrosis in relation to the residual tumor or the estimated proportion of the residual tumor in the area of the former tumor area. An ideal TRG system shows significant interobserver agreement and offers relevant prognostic information - in most cases a complete or almost complete regression after neoadjuvant therapy is associated with an improved prognosis. In this review, the most commonly used TRG systems for gastrointestinal carcinomas are presented and discussed. In addition, current issues such as the standardization of TRG and the subject of regression in lymph node metastases in the context of a TRG system are discussed.</p>","PeriodicalId":54641,"journal":{"name":"Pathologe","volume":"43 1","pages":"51-56"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-02-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC8789639/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"39628305","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
