1 GASTROENTEROLOGY 1996;111: CASE REPORTS Human Aberrant Crypt Foci With Carcinoma In Situ From a Patient With Sporadic Colon Cancer ANASTASIOS K. KONSTANTAKOS,* I MEI SIU, THOMAS G. PRETLOW, THOMAS A. STELLATO,* and THERESA P. PRETLOW *Department of Surgery and Institute of Pathology, Case Western Reserve University Medical Center, Cleveland, Ohio by Pretlow et al., 6 Pretlow, 7 Bird, 8 and Pretlow and Pret- low 9 ), suggests that these aberrant crypt foci are putative precursors of colon cancer. The demonstration of invasive cancer in aberrant crypt foci in rodents 6,7 lends support to this hypothesis. Although dysplasia has been reported previously in aberrant crypt foci in humans, 3 5,10,12 this report provides the first detailed description of aberrant crypt foci with carcinoma in situ from a patient with sporadic colon cancer. This patient had two primary co- lon cancers 11 years apart, multiple aberrant crypt foci with carcinoma in situ, and pseudomelanosis coli at the time of resection of his second colon cancer. Aberrant crypt foci are putative preneoplastic lesions found in the colons of carcinogen-treated rodents and at an increased frequency in humans at increased risk for colon cancer. There is a strong association between aberrant crypt foci and colon cancer, including many shared phenotypic and genetic alterations. The aim of this study is to present further evidence of a relation- ship between aberrant crypt foci and colon cancer in humans. Multiple aberrant crypt foci from a single patient were identified in unembedded colonic mucosa. Histological sections of the aberrant crypt foci and adja- cent mucosa were evaluated for dysplasia, proliferative activity, and pigment-laden macrophages that were characterized with histochemical techniques. The first patient with sporadic colon cancer identified with aberrant crypt foci with carcinoma in situ is described. It is interesting that this 99-year-old patient had multiple carcinomas in situ, pseudomelanosis coli, and two metachronous colon cancers. These data lend support to the hypothesis that aberrant crypt foci are precursors of some colon cancers. A Case Report The occurrence of carcinoma in situ in two of the first three aberrant crypt foci evaluated in the grossly normal mu- cosa from a patient with sporadic colon cancer led us to search for unusual circumstances or family history that would provide further insights into aberrant crypt foci and/or their relationship to colon cancer. In 1984, when this white man was 88 years old, a moderately well-differentiated adenocarcinoma that infiltrated the serosa was removed from the sigmoid colon. Two of eight lymph nodes examined had carcinoma. Several postoperative follow-up colonoscopies failed to show any recur- rence of malignancy. In 1990, four sessile polyps were noted. Biopsies were performed on three of these polyps, measuring between 0.5 and 1 cm, and found to be tubulovillous adeno- mas; a biopsy was not performed on the fourth polyp, measur- ing õ0.5 cm. Yearly rectal examinations and guaiac tests on his stool specimens were negative. In 1995, at the age of 99 years, the patient presented with a 2 3-month history of constipation and mild, intermittent, crampy abdominal discomfort that occasionally localized to the right lower quadrant. He reported a decrease in the caliber of his stools and a 5-lb weight loss during this time. A variety of laxatives were used by this patient, but none of them appeared to contain anthraquinone compounds. A chest x-ray showed at least one, possibly two, indeterminate nodules in berrant crypt foci were first described 1 in the colons of carcinogen-treated rodents and later 2 5 at higher incidence in humans at increased risk for colon cancer. These lesions (Figure 1) are identified microscopically in whole-mount segments of colonic mucosa that have been stained, usually with methylene blue, to allow rapid identification of individual crypts from the mucosal sur- face. The crypts in aberrant crypt foci are two to three times larger than normal crypts, have a thickened layer of epithelial cells that generally stains darker than normal crypts, are microscopically elevated, usually have slitshaped lumina, and have an increased pericryptal space between them and the surrounding normal crypts (re- viewed by Pretlow et al., 6 Pretlow, 7 Bird, 8 and Pretlow and Pretlow 9 ).

Serial, 5- mm sections were mounted two per slide on Superfrost Plus treated slides (Fisher Scientific Co., Pittsburgh, PA). Every tenth slide was stained with H&E for histopathologic evaluation. Three or more slides from different regions of each focus were stained immunohistochemically with monoclonal antibody clone COL-1 (Zymed, San Francisco, CA) for the demonstration of carcinoembryonic antigen to demarcate clearly in histological sections the aberrant crypt foci that had been identified microscopically in whole-mount mucosa before embedding the tissue in paraffin. 10 Representative histological sections from three aberrant crypt foci were immunohistochemically stained 13 with MIB-1 (Biogenex, San Ramon, CA) monoclonal antibody for the demonstration of Ki-67 antigen, an antigen that is associated with cells in the proliferative phase. Representative histological sections were incubated with Figure 1.
