Summary

* Microsatellite instable (MSI) tumors represent almost the 15% of all sporadic colorectal cancers (CRCs).
* Literature data show that this unique tumor population appears to be poorly responsive to conventional chemotherapy and conversely reveals excellent results to immunotherapy.
* Our data, as demonstrated by propensity score-matched and win ratio analysis, show that there are no substantial differences between MSI and MSS tumors in early CRC stages treated with surgery alone.
* On the contrary, stable tumors (MSS) did much better than MSI tumors in advanced CRC stages undergoing conventional adjuvant treatment.
* Determination of status of DNA mismatch repair system is crucial in high-risk CRCs to optimize treatment.
