Abstract
From a mathematical point of view, the minimum number of lymph nodes that have to be analysed in cancer of the colon in order to classify a patient as N negative is not a constant. This depends on the error that is prepared to be assumed for that diagnosis, possibly depending on certain tumour traits, and also may be adapted to the cases of each study group.
