Background
Despite improvements in surgery and chemotherapy, most patients develop recurrence after hepatectomy for metastatic colorectal cancer. Data are lacking on the effect of these patterns on outcome.Methods
A retrospective review of a prospectively maintained hepatobiliary database was performed. Pattern and timing of recurrence and outcome after recurrence were analyzed. Univariate and multivariate analyses of factors associated with outcome after recurrence were carried out.Results
From January 1997 through May 2003, a total of 733 patients underwent hepatectomy for colorectal metastases. Of these, 637 patients (87%) were included in the analysis, and in 393 patients (62%), recurrence was documented at the time of last follow-up. Initial recurrence patterns included the following: liver only in 120 patients (31%), lung only in 107 (27%), other single sites in 49 (12%), and multiple sites in 117 (30%). Recurrence occurred within 2 years of hepatectomy in 75% of patients and after 3 years in 11%. Margins at hepatectomy, recurrence pattern, resected recurrence, and disease-free interval from time of colectomy to hepatic metastasis and from time of hepatectomy to recurrence were independently associated with survival as measured from the time of recurrence. Recurrence in the lung, resected recurrence, and time to recurrence after hepatectomy were associated with prolonged survival as measured from the time of hepatectomy and the time of recurrence.Conclusions
The timing and pattern of recurrence after hepatic resection for metastatic colorectal cancer are important predictors of long-term survival. 相似文献Background
Although hepatectomy for metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC) offers prolonged survival in up to 40% of people, recurrence rates are high, approaching 70%. Many patients experience recurrent disease in the liver after initial hepatectomy. We examined our experience with repeat hepatectomy for mCRC.Methods
After Institutional Review Board approval, we reviewed the records of all patients at a single institution who underwent hepatectomy for mCRC. Repeat hepatectomy was defined as partial liver resection any time after the initial hepatectomy for recurrent mCRC. We estimated time to recurrence and survival by using the Kaplan?CMeier method and compared outcomes between groups by using the log-rank test.Results
From 1998 to 2008, 405 patients underwent hepatectomy for mCRC, and 215 (53%) experienced disease recurrence at a median of 13?months. Of 150 patients with liver-only or liver-predominant recurrence, 52 (35%) underwent repeat hepatectomy. The median time to recurrence after repeat hepatectomy was 10?months, and median overall survival was 19?months. There was one (1.9%) perioperative death, and there were 14 (27%) major complications. The median overall survival in the repeat hepatectomy group from the time of recurrence after initial hepatectomy was 22?months, compared with 15?months in the 98 patients with liver recurrence who were not selected for repeat hepatectomy (P?=?0.02).Conclusions
Repeat hepatectomy for mCRC is feasible in highly selected patients, with acceptable perioperative morbidity and mortality. Although repeat hepatectomy should be considered, recurrence rates are high. Although the initial hepatectomy for mCRC is potentially curative, recurrence of metastatic disease in the liver is unlikely to be cured. 相似文献Introduction
The Y-box binding protein-1 (YB-1) is a multifunctional oncoprotein involved in the proliferation and aggressiveness of cancer cells. The aim of this study was to determine whether strong YB-1 expression in neoplastic cells of colorectal liver metastases (CRLM) may have an impact on liver disease-free survival following liver resection.Materials and Methods
Immunohistochemistry was performed to evaluate YB-1 in 66 patients who underwent liver resection for CRLM. YB-1 expression was classified as weak (low-staining intensity) and strong (high-staining intensity).Results
YB-1 expression was observed in the cytoplasm of all CRLM. YB-1 expression was weak in 17 patients (25.8 %) and strong in 49 patients (74.2 %). Liver recurrence rate was significantly higher in the strong than in the weak expression group: 55.1 vs. 23.5 % (p?=?0.023). Multivariable logistic regression analysis showed that YB-1 strong expression was the only independent risk factor for liver recurrence. The 5-year specific liver disease-free survival rate was 76.0 % in the weak expression group and 41.5 % in the strong expression group (p?=?0.034). These results were not influenced by clinical prognostic factors of tumor recurrence.Conclusions
This is the first study showing that the degree of YB-1 expression in tissue specimens of CRLM predicts liver recurrence following liver resection. 相似文献Introduction
For colorectal cancer patients with liver metastases involving the hepatic dome or invading the diaphragm, a concomitant diaphragm resection is often required to achieve negative surgical margins. The purpose of this study is to determine whether diaphragm resection during partial hepatectomy for metastatic colorectal cancer influences short-term perioperative outcomes and overall survival.Methods
Demographics, treatments, and outcomes of 442 patients who underwent hepatic resection for metastatic colorectal cancer from 1996 to 2010 at a high-volume center were reviewed. Recurrence and survival were measured from the date of metastectomy. Actuarial curves were generated using the Kaplan?CMeier method and compared using log?Cranks testing. Multivariate predictors of worse survival were compared using a Cox-proportional hazards model.Results
A total of 442 patients underwent hepatectomy for metastatic colorectal cancer. Of these, 34 required simultaneous diaphragm resection (DR) and 408 did not (LR). No significant differences existed in patient demographics or comorbidities. The DR group had longer median operative times (336 vs. 267?min, p?=?0.0008) but had comparable rates of perioperative morbidity and mortality. Median overall survival was shorter in the DR group compared to the LR group (18.8 vs. 36?months, p?=?0.0017). When controlling for potential cofounders, liver metastases size?>?5?cm (HR 1.45 95?% CI (1.08?C1.99), p?=?0.015) and diaphragm resection (HR?=?1.72 95?% CI (1.03?C2.86), p?=?0.038) predicted worse survival.Conclusions
Simultaneous diaphragm resection during partial hepatectomy does not significantly influence perioperative morbidity or mortality despite longer operative times. However, patients who require diaphragm resection have less favorable survival rates as compared to those who do not. 相似文献Background
Treatment of distal rectal cancer remains clinically challenging and includes proctectomy and coloanal anastomosis (CAA) or abdominoperineal resection (APR). The purpose of this study is to evaluate operative and pathologic factors associated with long-term survival and local recurrence outcomes in patients treated for distal rectal cancer.Methods
A retrospective consecutive cohort study of 304 patients treated for distal rectal cancer with radical resection from 1993 to 2003 was performed. Patients were grouped by procedure (CAA or APR). Demographic, pathologic, recurrence, and survival data were analyzed utilizing chi-square analysis for comparison of proportions. Survival analysis was performed using Kaplan–Meier method and log-rank test for univariate and Cox regression for multivariate comparison.Results
The median tumor distance from the anal verge was 2 cm [interquartile range (IQR) 0.5–4 cm]. Margins were negative in all but four patients (one distal, 0.3%; three radial, 1%). The 5-year overall survival rate was 82% (88.6% stage pI, 80.5% stage pII, 67.9% stage pIII). Older age, advanced pathologic stage, presence of lymphovascular or perineural invasion, earlier treatment period, and APR surgery type were associated with worse survival on multivariate analysis. The 5-year local recurrence rate was 5.3% after CAA and 7.9% after APR (p = 0.33).Conclusions
Low rates of local recurrence and good overall survival can be achieved after treatment of distal rectal cancer with stage-appropriate chemoradiation and proctectomy with CAA or APR. Sphincter preservation can be achieved even with distal margins less than 2 cm. 相似文献Background
The purpose of this study was to determine if the expression of the chemokine receptors, CXCR4 and CCR7, and the chemokine ligand, CXCL12, in completely resected colorectal cancer hepatic metastases are predictive of disease-specific survival, recurrence-free survival and patterns of recurrence.Methods
Immunohistochemical analysis of CXCR4, CCR7 and CXCL12 expression within resected hepatic metastases was performed and correlated with clinicopathological variables, disease-specific survival, recurrence-free survival and patterns of recurrence.Results
Seventy-five patients who underwent partial hepatectomy with curative intent were studied. CXCR4 expression (hazard ratio [HR] 3.6, 95% confidence interval [95% CI] 1.4–9.1) and clinical risk score >2 (HR 2.3, 95% CI 1.1–4.7) were independently associated with disease-specific survival by multivariate analysis. The 5-year estimated disease-specific survival rates for positive and negative CXCR4 tumor expression were 44 and 77%, respectively (P = 0.005). CXCR4 expression (HR 2.2, 95% CI 1.2–4.2) and clinical risk score >2 (HR 1.9, 95% CI 1.1–3.4) were independently associated with recurrence-free survival by multivariate analysis. The five year estimated recurrence-free survival rates for positive and negative CXCR4 tumor expression were 20 and 50%, respectively (P = 0.004). Neither CXCL12 nor CCR7 expression in tumors predicted disease-specific survival or recurrence-free survival. Forty-nine patients (65%) developed recurrent disease after initial hepatectomy. Negative CXCR4 tumor expression was associated with favorable recurrence patterns amenable to salvage resection and/or ablation.Conclusions
Negative CXCR4 expression in resected colorectal cancer hepatic metastases is independently associated with improved disease-specific and recurrence-free survival and favorable patterns of recurrence.Purpose
