Zusammenfassung: | Systematic investigations into the prognostic impact of the longitudinal tumor location in gallbladder cancer (GBC) remain insufficient. To address the limitations of our pilot study, we conducted a multicenter investigation to clarify the impact of the longitudinal tumor location on the oncological outcomes of GBC.
A retrospective multicenter study was conducted on 372 patients undergoing radical resections for GBC from January 2010 to December 2019 across seven hospitals that belong to the Daejeon-Chungcheong branch of the Korean Association of Hepato-Biliary-Pancreatic Surgery. Patients were divided into GBC in the fundus/body (FB-GBC) and GBC in the neck/cystic duct (NC-GBC) groups, based on the longitudinal tumor location.
Of 372 patients, 282 had FB-GBC, while 90 had NC-GBC. NC-GBC was associated with more frequent elevation of preoperative carbohydrate antigen (CA) 19-9 levels, requirement for more extensive surgery, more advanced histologic grade and tumor stages, more frequent lymphovascular and perineural invasion, lower R0 resection rates, higher recurrence rates, and worse 5-year overall and disease-free survival rates. Propensity score matching analysis confirmed these findings, showing lower R0 resection rates, higher recurrence rates, and worse survival rates in the NC-GBC group. Multivariate analysis identified elevated preoperative CA 19-9 levels, lymph node metastasis, and non-R0 resection as independent prognostic factors, but not longitudinal tumor location.
NC-GBC exhibits more frequent elevation of preoperative CA 19-9 levels, more advanced histologic grade and tumor stages, lower R0 resection rates, and poorer overall and disease-free survival rates, compared to FB-GBC. However, the longitudinal tumor location was not analyzed as an independent prognostic factor. |
