Abstract
Lymphoepithelioma-like colon carcinoma (LELC) is rare. The Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) hasn´t been implicated in the pathogenesis of LELC of the colon, but they may in fact be more strongly associated with MSI. Its treatment is identical to adenocarcinoma. However, lymphocyte infiltration and microsatellite instability have been associated with better prognosis.
