The purpose of this study was to compare local recurrence, distant metastases, and survival rate in 350 patients with cancer of the middle and low rectum who underwent a radical abdominoperineal resection (APER) or a sphincter-saving resection (SSR) in our Institute. There were 257 APER patients and 93 SSR patients, with a median follow-up of 77 months. At 5 years, the estimates in APER and SSR patients were respectively 11% and 30% for the incidence of pelvic recurrence, 18% and 8% for the incidence of distant metastases, and 64% and 73% for overall survival. In the multivariate analysis it was found that Dukes' stage significantly affected pelvic recurrences, distant metastases rate and overall survival; histologic type affected only the pelvic recurrence rate. However, the final outcome of patients following APER or SSR was similar, suggesting that local failure per se does not affect long-term survival.  相似文献

Eleven patients with hepatic metastases from colorectal cancer survived more than 5 years after the resection were reviewed. There were 3 (27.3%) disease-free survivors, the longest survival period was 7 years and 2 months. Compared with 41 survivors of less than 5-year duration after resection, it was shown that close follow-up after resection of the primary cancer, detecting early subclinical hepatic metastases, preoperative lower level of CEA, tumor less or equal to 5 cm in size, single metastatic nodule and radical resection were important factors influening long-term survival (P < 0.05). It is of the opinion that early diagnosis, early resection and re-resection after detecting subclinical local recurrence and metastases play important role in improving long-term response.  相似文献

Between 1983 and 1993, 680 patients with rectal carcinoma were treated at Ulm University. The resection rate was 84%. After undergoing radical surgery, 492 of the patients were followed up regularly at our hospital for a median of 66.9 months (range 4-177.6). Recurrences occurred in 172 patients (35%) and were diagnosed a median of 13 months (range 4-106 months) postoperatively; 9.4% had regional recurrences, 10.4% regional recurrences and distant metastases and 10.2% distant metastases. The 10-year survival rate of the patients in tumour stages I, II and III was 88%, 62%, and 32%. In patients with carcinoma of the midrectum, after anterior resection or abdominoperineal amputation the same local recurrence rate was found.  相似文献

In Norway, about 2,800 cases of colorectal cancer are diagnosed every year. Two-thirds of the patients undergo potentially curative surgery and almost half of them develop local or distant metastases. The follow-up of colorectal cancer patients involves four strategies: Educating the patients about the disease, symptoms of relapse, and risk of hereditariness; Early diagnosis of relapse, to make curative re-surgery possible; Diagnosis of metachronous/synchronous cancer(s); Recording the results of current surgical techniques. The Norwegian Gastrointestinal Cancer Group recommend a four-year follow-up programme (every third month for two years and then twice a year) of colorectal cancer patients. It is suggested that patients treated with low anterior resection are followed regularly by means of rectoscopy and local examination (digital or by ultrasound) undertaken by specialist (surgeon or gastroenterologist). The others should be followed up mainly by general practitioners. Carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA)-monitoring is suggested every third month for two years, and then every sixth month. Colonoscopy is recommended at one and four year follow-up. Patients with normal CEA levels prior to surgery should be evaluated by ultrasound of the liver every sixth month for four years.  相似文献

Since 1988, treatment strategies for our sarcoma patients have been determined by the same team and operations performed by one surgeon. The aim of this study was to analyse prognostic data on local recurrence and survival of 101 consecutive patients who presented in our institution with the primary tumour manifestation. After a median follow-up of 35 months, the local recurrence rate was 13.5%, the mean survival time was 68 months and the 5-year survival rate was 83%. Besides positive lymph nodes (only 3 patients) the quality of resection significantly influenced local recurrences (P < 0.05). Univariate predictors of mortality were tumour grade (P < 0.01), tumour size (P < 0.05), distant metastases (P < 0.01), and resection quality (P < 0.01). Multivariate predictors of mortality consisted of grade (P < 0.0001), positive lymph nodes (P < 0.001) and resection quality (P < 0.01). In this homogeneous group of patients, excellent recurrence and survival rates could be achieved. An optimized surgical treatment not only reduces the rate of local recurrences but also augments survival time.  相似文献

Recurrence data from a series of 1,315 colorectal cancer patients managed by one surgeon with potentially curative resection are presented. Complete follow-up information was available on 1,287 (98%) patients. At the time of the last recurrences, 164 and 232 months for rectal and colonic tumours respectively, the long-time recurrence rate was significantly (P = 0.001) higher for rectal tumours (42%) than for colonic (33%). Although local recurrences tended to be more common in rectal than in colonic tumours (18% compared to 15%), only those in contiguity with the operative area were significantly (P less than 0.005) more common in rectal tumours. Systemic recurrences were also significantly (P less than 0.025) commoner for rectal tumours. The greater recurrence rates in rectal tumours were associated with significantly (P less than 0.001) higher incidence of stage C tumours shorter recurrence-free survival in rectal stage C tumours (P = 0.001) and higher incidence of pulmonary metastases (P less than 0.001).  相似文献

161 patients with adenocarcinoma of the gastrointestinal tract were studied to determine the value of the CEA test and a battery of non-specific immunological tests during the course of the disease. The ability of these tests to detect a tumor recurrence in radically operated patients was evaluated. A false negative preoperative CEA value was found in 40% of the patients with gastric carcinoma and 32% with colorectal carcinoma. Patients with a negative preoperative CEA value, and those with only slightly elevated values, had a distinctly better prognosis regarding initial operability and tendency to postoperative recurrence than patients with primarily markedly elevated values. With few exceptions, the development of distant metastases was detected earlier and more easily with the CEA test than by the usual routine follow-up methods. However, in the event of isolated local recurrence the CEA test was positive in only 1 of 5 patients. This reflects the direct correlation between tumor size and CEA elevation. The CEA test is a valuable supplement in the follow-up of patients with gastrointestinal carcinoma.  相似文献

PURPOSE: We assess the results of bladder preservation for infiltrating bladder cancer. The potential for neoadjuvant chemotherapy followed by extensive transurethral resection and radiotherapy was evaluated in 40 patients with T2-T4a G2-G3 bladder carcinoma. MATERIALS AND METHODS: From 1983 to 1995, 40 patients with bladder cancer underwent bladder sparing treatment, consisting of neoadjuvant chemotherapy, extensive transurethral resection and radiotherapy. Most patients had T3G3 cancer. A deep transurethral resection biopsy was performed before and after chemotherapy, and an extensive transurethral resection was repeated at the end of radiotherapy. Of the patients 30 received cisplatin and methotrexate and 10 also received vinblastine. Total dose of radiotherapy was 60 to 65 Gy. Recurrent superficial tumors were treated transurethrally. Radical cystectomy was considered for persistent or recurrent invasive disease. RESULTS: Complete response occurred in 19 patients (47.5%) after chemotherapy, and in 8 patients after transurethral resection and radiotherapy (67.5%). Within 10 years 8 responding patients (30%) had local recurrences and 3 underwent cystectomy. Of the patients 14 (35%) are alive, including 13 with no evidence of disease (mean survival 65 months), 5 died of unrelated disease and 21 (52.5%) died of distant metastases (mean survival 28 months). Of the 21 patients 14 had residual tumor after radiotherapy, 3 presented with distant metastases after vesical infiltrating recurrence and 4 had distant metastases in the absence of locoregional recurrence. In 22 patients (55%) the bladder was salvaged. Patients with complete response to chemotherapy had a low risk for recurrent infiltrating tumors and metastases. CONCLUSIONS: Complete tumor control was maintained at 5 years in more than 50% of the patients treated conservatively. Bladder salvage is feasible in select patients.  相似文献

BACKGROUND: The association between mucosal ulcerative colitis (MUC) and adenocarcinoma is well established. METHODS: Records of patients who had undergone restorative proctocolectomy with ileal pouch-anal anastomosis (IPAA) from 1983 through 1992 were examined. Of these, 604 had MUC and 27 (4.3%) had MUC with coexisting cancer. Patients were surveyed annually for recurrent disease. Pouch function and quality of life were evaluated with a questionnaire and physical examination. RESULTS: The duration of disease was longer (p = 0.001) in patients with cancer (16.1 +/- 8.0 years) than in those without cancer (9.1 +/- 7.1 years), although the mean age at diagnosis of MUC was the same. Of the 27 patients, 20 had colon cancer and seven had rectal cancer. Multicentricity was found in seven (25.9%) patients. Using the TNM staging classification, 14 patients (51.8%) had stage 1 cancer, eight (29.6%) had stage 2, four (14.8%) had stage 3, and one (3.8%) had stage 4. The patient with stage 4 cancer died 5 months after surgery and was excluded from the follow-up analysis. During a mean follow-up time of 4.3 +/- 2.6 years, cancer recurred in two of the remaining 26 patients (7.7%). In one patient, a local recurrence was found 8 months after surgery, and distant metastases were found in the other patient 35 months after surgery. Both recurrences were in patients with colon cancer. Two of the 26 patients died; one death was related to cancer recurrence (3.8%). Pouch function is good to excellent in all surviving patients. CONCLUSIONS: Restorative proctocolectomy for patients with MUC and coexisting colorectal cancer can be performed with a favorable prognosis and function. It is appropriate for curative intent, given that an adequate margin without tumor is obtained.  相似文献

PURPOSE: Total mesorectal excision (TME) and other technical surgical factors reduce local recurrence rate in rectal cancer. Scientific evidence of the positive effect of optimal surgery on survival is locking. Whether a reduction in the incidence of distant metastases can be achieved with optimal surgery is uncertain. We examine the effects of the quality of surgery, as reflected by local recurrence rate, on survival and the incidence of initial distant metastases. PATIENTS AND METHODS: Between 1974 and 1991, 1,581 consecutive patients who underwent curative resection (RO) for rectal carcinoma were monitored for recurrence and survival. TME was introduced in 1985. No patient received adjuvant radiotherapy or chemotherapy. The median follow-up time was greater than 13 years. RESULTS: The local recurrence rate decreased from 39.4% to 9.8% during the study period (P < .0001). The observed 5-year survival rate improved from 50% to 71% (P < .0001). Three hundred six patients with local recurrence had a significantly lower observed 5-year survival rate (P < .0001). A total of 1,285 patients had no local recurrence, but 275 of them developed distant metastases (International Union Against Cancer [UICC] stage I, 8%; stage II, 16%; stage III, 40%). Better-quality surgery had no effect on the incidence of initial distant metastases, which remained constant (P = .44). CONCLUSION: Quality of surgery is an independent prognostic factor for survival in rectal cancer, but has no influence on initial occurrence of distant metastases. Local recurrence cannot be considered an outcome criterion of adjuvant treatment without consideration of the surgeon as a risk factor.  相似文献

PURPOSE: To identify predicting factors for local failure and increased risk of distant metastases by statistical analysis of the data after breast-conserving treatment for early breast cancer. METHODS AND MATERIALS: Between January 1976 and December 1993, 528 patients with nonmetastatic T1 (tumors < or = 1 cm [n = 197], >1 cm [n = 220]) or T2 (tumors < or = 3 cm [n = 111]) carcinoma of the breast underwent wide excision (n = 435) or quadrantectomy (n = 93) with axillary dissection (negative nodal status [n-]: 396; 1-3 involved nodes: 100; >3 involved nodes: 32). Radiotherapy consisted of 45 Gy to the entire breast via tangential fields. Patients with positive axillary lymph nodes received 45 Gy to the axillary and supraclavicular area. Patients with positive axillary nodes and/or inner or central tumor locations received 50 Gy to the internal mammary lymph node area. A boost dose was delivered to the primary site by iridium 192 Implant in 298 patients (mean total dose: 15.2+/-0.07 Gy, range: 15-25 Gy) or by electrons in 225 patients (mean total dose: 14.8+/-0.09 Gy, range: 5-20 Gy). The mean age was 52.5+/-0.5 years (range: 26-86 years) and 267 patient were postmenopausal. Histologic types were as follows: 463 infiltrating ductal carcinomas, 39 infiltrating lobular carcinomas, and 26 other histotypes. Grade distribution according to the Scarff, Bloom, and Richardson (SBR) classification was as follows: 149 grade 1, 271 grade 2, 73 grade 3, and 35 nonclassified. The mean tumor size was 1.6+/-0.3 cm (range: 0.3-3 cm). The intraductal component of the primary tumor was extensive (EIC = IC > or = 25%) in 39 patients. Tumors were microscopically bifocal in 33 cases. Margins were assessed in the majority of cases by inking of the resection margins and were classified as positive in 13 cases, close (< or = 2 mm) in 21, negative (>2 mm tumor-free margin) in 417, and indeterminate in 77. Peritumoral vascular invasion was observed in 40 patients. Tamoxifen was administered for at least 2 years in 176 patients. At least six cycles of adjuvant systemic chemotherapy were administered in 116 patients. The mean follow-up period from the beginning of the treatment was 84.5+/-1.7 months. RESULTS: First events included 44 isolated local recurrences, 8 isolated axillary node recurrences, 44 isolated distant metastases, 1 local recurrence with synchronous axillary node recurrence, 7 local recurrences with synchronous metastases, and 2 local recurrences with synchronous axillary node recurrences and distant metastases. Of 39 pathologically evaluable local recurrences, 33 were classified as true local recurrences and 6 as ipsilateral new primary carcinomas. Seventy patients died (47 of breast carcinoma, 4 of other neoplastic diseases, 10 of other diseases and 9 of unknown causes). The 5- and 10-year rates were, respectively: specific survival 93% and 86%, disease-free survival 85% and 75%, distant metastasis 8.5% and 14%, and local recurrence 7% and 14%. Mean intervals from the beginning of treatment for local recurrence or distant metastases were, respectively, 60+/-6 months (median: 47 months, range: 6-217 months) and 49.5+/-5.4 months (median: 33 months, range: 6-217 months). After local recurrence, salvage mastectomy was performed in 46 patients (85%) and systemic hormonal therapy and/or chemotherapy was administered to 43 patients. The 5-year specific survival rate after treatment for local recurrence was 78+/-8.2%. Multivariate analysis (multivariate generalization of the proportional hazards model) showed that the probability of local control was decreased by the following four independent factors: young age (< or = 40 yr vs. >40 yr; relative risk [RR]: 3.15, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.7-5.8, p = 0.0002), premenopausal status (pre vs. post; RR: 2.9, 95% CI: 1.4-6, p = 0.0048), bifocality (uni- vs. bifocal; RR: 2.7, 95% CI: 2.6-2.8,p = 0.018), and extensive intraductal component (IC <25% vs. IC > or = 25%; RR: 2.6, 95% CI: 13-5.2, p = 0  相似文献

PURPOSE: To assess the frequency and prognosis of skin recurrences after breast-conserving therapy (BCT) compared with other breast recurrences. MATERIALS AND METHODS: From 1968 to 1986, 1,624 patients with unilateral stage I or II breast cancer treated with BCT at the Joint Center for Radiation Therapy (Boston, MA) underwent gross tumor excision and received a dose of > or = 60 Gy to the tumor bed. Skin recurrences (SR) were defined as breast recurrences without associated parenchymal disease. An invasive breast recurrence with any parenchymal disease noted clinically or radiographically was scored as an other breast recurrence (OBR). Median follow-up for survivors was 137 months. RESULTS: SR represented 8% (18 of 229) of all breast recurrences and occurred in 1.1% of all patients. The outcome after local recurrence was different for patients with SR and invasive OBR. Patients with SR more frequently had uncontrolled local failure (50%; 9 of 18) than did patients with OBR (14%; 26 of 188) (P = .0007). Forty-four percent (8 of 18) of patients with SR had distant metastasis simultaneously or within 2 months of the recurrence compared with 5% (9 of 188) of invasive OBR patients (P < .0001). For patients without distant metastasis at the time of recurrence, the 5-year actuarial rate of development of distant metastasis was 60% for SR patients compared with 39% for invasive OBR patients (P = .07), and the corresponding 5-year actuarial survival rates beyond the time of local failure were 51% and 79%, respectively (P = .06). CONCLUSION: In contrast to other types of invasive breast recurrence after breast-conserving therapy, skin recurrences are rare and are associated with a significantly higher rate of distant metastasis and uncontrolled local disease as well as a lower rate of survival.  相似文献

Only limited data are available on chromosomes specifically involved in prostatic tumour progression. This study has evaluated the cytogenetic status of primary prostatic carcinomas, local tumour recurrences, and distant metastases, representing different time points in prostatic tumour progression. Interphase in situ hybridization (ISH) was applied with a set of (peri) centromeric DNA probes, specific for chromosomes 1, 7, 8 and Y, to routinely processed tissue sections of 73 tumour specimens from 32 patients. Longitudinal evaluation was possible in 11 cases with local recurrence and nine cases with distant metastases. The remaining 12 patients showed no evidence of local recurrence or distant metastasis after radical prostatectomy on follow-up (mean 60.5 months) and served as a reference. Numerical aberrations of at least one chromosome were found in 27 per cent of the local recurrences and 56 per cent of the distant metastases. In decreasing order of frequency, +8, +7, and -Y were observed in the recurrences and +8, +7, -Y, and +1 in the distant metastases. Evaluation of the corresponding primary tumour tissue of the recurrence group showed numerical aberrations in 45 per cent of cases. The aberrations found were, in decreasing order of frequency, -Y, +7, and +8. In the concomitant primary tumour tissue of the distant metastasis group, numerical aberrations were detected in 67 per cent of cases. The aberrations most frequently encountered were +8, -Y, followed by +7. In four cases, a concordance was found between the primary tumour and its recurrence or distant metastasis. Discrepancies might have been caused by cytogenetic heterogeneity. Comparison of the primary tumour tissue of the reference, the recurrence, and the distant metastasis groups showed a significant increase for the percentage of cases with numerical aberrations (Ptrend = 0.02). Likewise, a trend was seen for gain of chromosome 7 and/or 8 (Ptrend < 0.05). The number of DNA aneuploid tumours also increased in these different groups (Ptrend = 0.03). These data suggest that cancers which recur in time display an intermediate position between tumours of disease-free patients and metastatic cancers.  相似文献

BACKGROUND: To clarify whether or not multiple pulmonary metastases from colorectal cancer are contraindicated for a surgical resection, we retrospectively evaluated the influence of the number of pulmonary metastases on both the postthoracotomy survival and the pattern of the first failure. METHODS: From 1981 to 1993, 36 patients underwent a complete resection for pulmonary metastases from colorectal cancer. RESULTS: Of the various factors investigated including gender, primary site, disease-free interval, tumor size, the number of metastases, type of resection, and the history of hepatic metastases, only the number of pulmonary metastases was found to be significantly related to postthoracotomy survival. The rate of disease-free survival at 5 years was 62% for solitary metastasis (n = 17), 35% for two metastases (n = 8), and 0% for four or more metastases (n = 11). The pattern of failure also differed according to the number of pulmonary metastases. In particular, the incidence of local recurrence at the primary site increased with the number of pulmonary metastases (ie, 1 of 17 patients with a solitary metastasis, 3 of 8 with two metastases, and 6 of 11 with four or more metastases). CONCLUSIONS: These results suggest that multiple metastases might indicate the presence of local recurrence at the primary site; therefore, in cases of multiple pulmonary metastases, the primary site should be thoroughly explored.  相似文献

OBJECTIVE: To determine the impact of adjuvant hepatic arterial infusion (HAI) on survival relative to resection alone in patients with radical resection of colorectal liver metastases. SUMMARY BACKGROUND DATA: Nearly 40% to 50% of all patients with colorectal carcinoma develop liver metastases. Curative resection results in a 5-year survival rate of 25% to 30%. Intrahepatic recurrence occurs after a median of 9 to 12 months in up to 60% of patients. The authors hypothesized that adjuvant intraarterial infusion of 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) might decrease the rate of intrahepatic recurrence and improve survival in patients with radical resection of colorectal liver metastases. METHODS: Between April 5, 1991, and December 31, 1996, patients with colorectal liver metastases from 26 hospitals were stratified by the number of metastases and the site of the primary tumor and randomized to resection of the liver metastases followed by adjuvant HAI of 5-FU (1000 mg/m2 per day for 5 days as a continuous 24-hour infusion) plus folinic acid (200 mg/m2 per day for 5 days as a short infusion), or liver resection only. RESULTS: The first planned intention-to-treat interim analysis after inclusion of 226 patients and 91 events (deaths) showed a median survival of 34.5 months for patients with adjuvant therapy versus 40.8 months for control patients. The median time to progression was 14.2 months for the chemotherapy group versus 13.7 months for the control group. Grade 3 and 4 toxicities (World Health Organization), mainly stomatitis (57.6%) and nausea (55.4%), occurred in 25.6% of cycles and 62.9% of patients. CONCLUSION: According to this planned interim analysis, adjuvant HAI, when used in this dose and schedule in patients with resection of colorectal liver metastases, reduced the risk of death at best by 15%, but at worst the risk of death was doubled. Thus, the chance of detecting an expected 50% improvement in survival by the use of HAI was only 5%. Patient accrual was therefore terminated.  相似文献

The imaging techniques used to follow-up patients submitted to surgery for colorectal cancers are presented as are their advantages and disadvantages. The sensitivity of ultrasonography (US) for postoperative surveillance of the liver varies considerably according to whether the absence or presence of metastases is sought (83%) or their exact number (53-82%). US is recommended by French clinicians as the standard follow-up examination whereas, American clinicians tend to discuss CT-Scan or MRI for the same purpose. Some authors advocate Doppler ultrasonography for the detection of liver metastases. Spiral CT-Scan offers better results than conventional CT and is now considered second in rank to US for follow-up studies. Its sensitivity exceeds 90% for metastases greater than 1 cm. IRM and arterial CT-scan are not applicable for follow-up but are sometimes indicated for difficult cases before hepatectomy. US is also an appropriate technique for postoperative exploration of the abdominal cavity. When the CEA level and the US examination are normal, this technique is sufficient. However, in dubious clinical or biological cases, US should be associated with a spiral CT-Scan. Most clinicians recommend a reference CT-Scan, two to four months after the resection and every 6 months for 2 years and then annually. The same follow-up strategy is advocated after abdominoperineal resection and for surveillance of the pelvis. The sensitivity of CT-Scan is between 69 and 88% but it is unable to differentiate recurrence from fibrosis. IRM, with a sensitivity of 90%, is the best method for overcoming with problems related to the differential diagnosis and particularly novel fast acquisition imaging and contrast agents. Ultrasonoendoscopy, repeated every 4 to 6 months after anterior resection, is also a useful examination for surveillance of the pelvis. PET-Scan has produced encouraging results for the detection of metastases and for the differential diagnosis between local recurrence and fibrosis. When available, this technique could become the "gold standard" for the surveillance of patients following surgery for colorectal cancers.  相似文献

Fifty-two of 2,315 patients (2.4%) with non-small cell lung cancer (NSLC) treated with radiation therapy at the Mallinckrodt Institute of Radiology and St. Luke's Hospital between 1975 and 1988 presented with local recurrence after definitive surgery. No patient received radiation therapy after surgery as part of initial treatment and none had evidence of distant metastases at the time of local recurrence. The median time to first recurrence was 14 months. At recurrence, patients presented with disease in the bronchial stump (eight patients), ipsilateral lung parenchyma (10), chest wall (six), regional lymph nodes (five), or some combination thereof (23). Sixty-five percent of patients had histologic evidence of recurrence. Radiation therapy consisted of > 5,000 cGy in conventional fractionation to areas of gross disease in 35 of 52 patients. Of 15 patients receiving > 6,000 cGy, 13 had a favorable--complete (CR) or partial (PR) response--tumor response to radiation therapy. Among these patients, local control was achieved in 70% of patients with marginal recurrences (i.e., stump, parenchyma, or chest wall) and in 50% with nodal recurrences. The median survival after radiation therapy for all patients was 8.5 months. The best indicators for long-term survival were the interval from initial surgery to first recurrence and tumor response to radiation therapy.  相似文献

AIM: To investigate prognostic factors and complications after radical hysterectomy followed by postoperative radiotherapy for carcinoma of the uterine cervix. PATIENTS AND METHODS: One hundred twenty-eight patients with T1b-2b carcinoma of the uterine cervix following radical hysterectomy with bilateral pelvic lymphadenectomy and postoperative radiation therapy were reviewed. Pathologic and treatment variables were assessed by multivariate analysis for local recurrence, distant metastases and cause specific survival. RESULTS: The number of positive nodes (PN) in the pelvis was the strongest predictor of pelvic recurrence and distant metastases. These 2 failure patterns independently affect the cause specific survival. The 5-year cumulative local and distant failure were PN(0): 2% and 12%, PN(1-2): 23% and 25%, PN(2 <): 32% and 57%, respectively (p = 0.0029 and p = 0.0051). The 5-year cause specific survival rates were PN(0): 90%, PN(1-2): 59% and PN(2 <): 42% (p = 0.0001). The most common complication was lymphedema of the foot experienced by one-half of the patients (5-year: 42%, 10-year: 49%). CONCLUSION: These results suggest that patients with pathologic T1b-T2b cervix cancer with pelvic lymph node metastases are at high risk of recurrence or metastases after radical hysterectomy with pelvic lymphadenectomy and postoperative irradiation.  相似文献

The lack of other effective treatment for colorectal liver metastases makes hepatic resection a primary treatment consideration. Between January 1980 and December 1990, 26 selected patients with liver colorectal metastases who underwent hepatic resection were reviewed. The age, sex, site of primary lesion, histological grade, lymph node involvement, location, size, and number of hepatic metastases, type of hepatic resection, and preoperative CEA blood levels were documented. Complete removal with histologically negative resection margins were accomplished in 24 patients. The extent of resection performed was hepatic lobectomy in 12 patients. Segmentectomy in eight patients, and wedge resection in four patients. The 5-year survival rate was 30.5 per cent. Patients with metachronous metastases showed a better survival rate than those with synchronous lesions--46.6% versus 13.6% respectively (P = 0.08). None of the other factors studied showed a significant effect on survival. All patients were followed from the time of hepatic resection to the time of this study or death. During a median follow-up of 30.9 months, 20 patients developed recurrence of their disease (60 per cent in the liver). There was no perioperative mortality. Morbidity arose in 66.6 per cent of patients, with a majority of the complications being minor. We conclude that hepatic resection can be performed safely enough to be recommended in selected patients.  相似文献
