Multiple histopathologic features have been reported as candidates for predicting aggressive stage II colorectal cancer (CRC). These include tumor budding (TB), poorly differentiated clusters (PDC), Crohn-like lymphoid reaction and desmoplastic reaction (DR) categorization. Although their individual prognostic significance has been established, their association with disease-specific survival (DSS) has not been compared in stage II CRC. This study aimed to evaluate and compare the prognostic value of the above features in a Japanese (n=283) and a Scottish (n=163) cohort, as well as to compare 2 different reporting methodologies: analyzing each feature from across every tissue slide from the whole tumor and a more efficient methodology reporting each feature from a single slide containing the deepest tumor invasion. In the Japanese cohort, there was an excellent agreement between the multi-slide and single-slide methodologies for TB, PDC, and DR (kappa=0.798 to 0.898) and a good agreement when assessing Crohn-like lymphoid reaction (kappa=0.616). TB (hazard ratio [HR]=1.773; P=0.016), PDC (HR=1.706; P=0.028), and DR (HR=2.982; P
