Tumor Budding Score Is a Strong and Independent Prognostic Factor in Patients With Pancreatic Ductal Adenocarcinoma: An Evaluation of Whole Slide Pathology Images of Large Sections

ObjectiveWe aimed to develop the tumor budding (TB) score and to explore the association between the TB score and overall survival (OS) in patients with pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC).MethodsIn this retrospective study, 130 consecutive patients with PDAC underwent surgical resection between...

Univariate analysis revealed that the TB score was significantly associated with OS [hazard ratio (HR) = 2.71, 95% CI = 1.48–4.96, p = 0.001]. Multivariate analysis revealed a strong and independent association between the TB score and OS (HR = 2.35, 95% CI = 1.27–4.33, p = 0.03).
