title: [Molecular markers in colorectal carcinoma].
abstract: Due to introduction of immunohistochemical, cytochemical, molecular and cytogenetic methods in oncologic research, understanding of genetic basis in tumor genesis is improving. Furthermore, different studies gave evidence for prognostic relevance of some (cyto)genetic alterations or residual tumor cells in lymph nodes or bone marrow, respectively. More prospective, large studies are needed, before applying these findings in clinical routine, and the methods have to be standardized.
