Abstract Aim Postoperative complications following the resection of oesophago-gastric carcinoma can result in considerable early morbidity and mortality, however the long-term effects are less clear. Literature reports are mixed, so it remains unclear if complications reduce survival, as has been demonstrated in colorectal cancer. Background & Methods Some 1100 patients who underwent oesophago-gastric resection between 2006-16 were stratified by complication severity to determine the effect of leak and severe non-leak related complications on overall survival, recurrence and disease free survival. Results The median age was 69 years, 48% had stage III disease, with cancer recurrence in 39%. Clavien-Dindo (CD) complications ≥ III occurred in 22.2% of patients. The most common complications were pulmonary (30%), with a 13% incidence of pneumonia, 10% atrial dysrhythmia and 9.6% anastomotic leak. In comparison to CD 0-I complication free patients, those with CD III-IV leak did not suffer a significantly reduced survival. However patients with CD III-IV non-leak related complications were associated with a significant reduction in median overall survival (19.7 vs. 42.7 months) and disease free survival (18.4 vs. 36.4 months). Cox regression revealed age, stage, resection margin, and CD III-IV non-leak complications as independently associated with poor overall and disease free survival. Conclusion This cohort demonstrates that whilst leak does not affect long-term survival, other severe postoperative complications do significantly reduce overall survival and disease recurrence. A reduction in these complications, such as pneumonia, seen with adoption of hybrid / minimally invasive surgery may help change this pattern of disease recurrence and reduced survival.

Objective The effect of postoperative complications including red blood transfusion (BT) on long-term survival for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is unknown. The purpose of this study was to define the relationship between postoperative complications and long-term survival in patients with HCC. Methods Postoperative complications of 1251 patients who underwent curative liver resection for HCC were classified, and their recurrence-free survival (RFS) and cumulative overall survival (OS) were investigated. Results Any complications occurred in 503 patients (40%). Five-year RFS and 5-year OS in the complication group were 21% and 56%, respectively, significantly lower than the respective values of 32% ( p < 0.001) and 68% ( p < 0.001) in the no-complication group (n=748). Complications related to RFS were postoperative BT [Hazard ratio (HR): 1.726, 95% confidence interval (CI): 1.338–2.228, p < 0.001], pleural effusion [HR: 1.434, 95% CI: 1.200–1.713, p < 0.001] using Cox-proportional hazard model. Complications related to OS were postoperative BT [HR: 1.843, 95%CI: 1.380-2.462, p < 0.001], ascites [HR: 1.562, 95% CI: 1.066–2.290 p = 0.022], and pleural effusion [HR: 1.421, 95% CI: 1.150–1.755, p = 0.001). Conclusions Postoperative complications were factors associated with poor long-term survival. Postoperative BT and pleural effusion, were noticeable complications that were prognostic factors for both recurrence-free survival and overall survival.

The purpose of this study was to compare long-term survival in first-line chemotherapy with and without platinum in advanced-stage ovarian cancer. From July 1987 to November 1992, 161 untreated patients with FIGO stage III–IV epithelial ovarian cancer were randomized: 81 patients received no platinum and 80 received platinum combination. Residual disease after surgery was <2 cm in 61 patients without platinum, 59 with platinum. Median age was 58 years in nonplatinum arm and 55 years in platinum arm (range: 15–73). Complete and partial responses were 51% and 10% for nonplatinum arm and 51% and 8% for platinum arm, respectively (P= 0.7960). Stable disease was observed in 18% of patients in nonplatinum arm and 15% of patients in platinum arm and progression in 20% of nonplatinum- and 21% of platinum-treated cases. Ten-year disease-free survival was 37% for therapy without platinum and 31% for platinum combination (P= 0.5679); 10-year overall survival was 23% without platinum and 31% with platinum combination (P= 0.2545). Fifteen-year overall survival showed a trend of short duration in favor of platinum (P= 0.0678). Relapses occurred after 60 months in ten patients (seven with and three without platinum). The overall and disease-free survivals at 5, 10, and 15 years show no statistically significant long-term advantage from the addition of cisplatin; however, there is a slight trend in its favor.

The Impact

Abstract Background Esophagectomy with 2–3 field lymph node dissection is one of the most invasive surgical treatment for malignancy and is still associated with a high mortality and morbidity despite improvements in surgical techniques and postoperative management. The impact of postoperative complications on perioperative morbidity is widely accepted. But the impact of postoperative complications on long-term survival remains controversial. Methods A retrospective analysis was performed on patient who underwent transthoracic esophagectomy with intrathoracic anastomosis for esophageal cancer between January 2005 and December 2012 in our department (415 patients). We excluded non-radical resections (R1, R2 – 27 patients, 6.5%) and patients who died within 90 day after operation (20 patients, 4.8%). Data on gender, BMI, histologic diagnosis, tumor staging, neoadjuvant treatment, comorbidities, technical complications and postoperative medical complications were reviewed. Considered postoperative complications were anastomotic leak, empyema, chyle leak, pneumonia, ARDS, cardiac arrhythmia, wound infection and urinary tract infection. We analysed separately extrapolated serious complications Clavien Dindo 3–4 and their possible impact on overall survival. Prognostic factors were assessed by multivariate analysis. Results Total number of analysed patients was 363. The median follow up was 8.5 years. From the baseline characteristics, the presence of atrial fibrillation (P = 0.0157, HR 2.376) and hypertension (P = 0.0093, HR 1.488), higher staging pT3–4 (0.0146, HR 1.437) and presence of lymph node metastasis pN + (P < 0.001, HR 2.263) had a negative impact on overall survival. Among the postoperative complications, only chyle leak (P = 0.0327, HR 4.023) had a negative prognostic factor on overall survival. Conclusion In this single institution series, among the postoperative complications only chylothorax affect negatively the overall survival. Accurate ligation of resected thoracic duct stumps to minimize chyle leak is important to improve outcomes. The influence of others postoperative complications wasn’t significant. We assume important to exclude postoperative mortality from analysis to prevent bias. Disclosure All authors have declared no conflicts of interest.

BackgroundThis study aimed to evaluate the impact of postoperative complication and its etiology on long-term survival for gastric cancer (GC) patients with curative resection.MethodsFrom January 2009 to December 2014, a total of 1,667 GC patients who had undergone curative gastrectomy were analyzed. Patients with severe complications (SCs) (Clavien–Dindo grade III or higher complications or those causing a hospital stay of 15 days or longer) were separated into a “complication group.” Univariate and multivariate analyses were performed to reveal the relationship between postoperative complications and long-term survival. A 2:1 propensity score matching (PSM) was used to balance baseline parameters between the two groups.ResultsSCs were diagnosed in 168 (10.08%) patients, including different etiology: infectious complications (ICs) in 111 (6.66%) and non-infectious complications (NICs) in 71 (4.26%) patients. Multivariate analysis showed that presence of SCs (P=0.001) was an independent prognostic factor for overall survival, and further analysis by complication type demonstrated that the deteriorated overall survival was mainly caused by ICs (P=0.004) rather than NICs (P=0.068). After PSM, patients with SCs (p=0.002) still had a significantly decreased overall survival, and the presence of ICs (P=0.002) rather than NICs (P=0.067) showed a negative impact on long-term survival.ConclusionSerious complications, particularly of an infectious type, may have a negative impact on overall survival of GC patients. However, additional multicenter prospective studies with larger sample size are required to verify this issue.

The influence of treatment and of pretreatment patient characteristics on the probability of long-term disease-free survival in small-cell lung cancer (SCLC) was investigated in a consecutive series of 874 patients. The patients were included in six controlled treatment trials from 1973 to 1981, using different combinations of chemotherapy with or without irradiation. All patients underwent pretreatment staging, including bronchoscopy, peritoneoscopy with liver biopsy, and bone marrow examination. The same procedures were repeated in patients without overt signs of disease 18 months from initiation of treatment, and patients without evidence of SCLC were regarded as long-term survivors. Seventy-two patients were disease-free at restaging, corresponding to 13% of 443 patients with limited-stage disease and 3% of 431 patients with extensive-stage disease. The possible relationship between different pretreatment variables and the probability of 18 months' disease-free survival was investigated by multiple regression analysis. Disease extent was the most important determinant of long-term survival. Being a woman was a positive factor and hypouricemia had negative influence on the long-term results, while features such as performance status and serum lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) did not have significant influence in the regression model. Differences between the efficacy of the applied treatment regimens were less in limited disease than they were in extensive disease, in which six-agent regimens of alternating chemotherapy was significantly better than treatment with three- or four-agent regimens. Accordingly, disease extent seems to be the most pivotal determinant of long-term survival in SCLC, but influence of the patient's sex and serum urate concentration should also be considered.

Abstract Introduction Conventional colectomy, and the Japanese Society for Cancer of the Colon and Rectum (JSCCR) D2 Lymphadenectomy (LND2), are the standards of care for the surgical management of colon cancer. Colectomy with complete mesocolic excision (CME) and JSCCR D3 Lymphadenectomy (LND3) are alternative, and more radical procedures, that provide greater lymph nodal clearance. However, controversy exists over the long-term survival benefits of CME/LND3 over non-CME colectomies (NCME)/LND2. Method In this study, we performed a meta-analysis to compare the survival outcomes of CME/LND3 with NCME/LND2. Medline and Embase databases were searched for articles reporting survival outcomes of both CME/LND3 and NCME/LND2, with comparisons presented using odds ratios (OR). Results Ten studies were included in this analysis. Overall and disease-free survival favored CME/LND3 (3-year OS: OR = 1.56; CI 1.22-2.00; p = 0.0004, 5-year OS: OR = 1.29; CI 1.02-1.64, p = 0.03, 3-year DFS: OR = 1.45; CI 1.12-1.88; p = 0.005, 5-year DFS: OR = 1.61; CI 1.14-2.28; p = 0.007). Overall and disease-free survival rates at five years were 79.8% and 85.9%, and 74.6% and 78.0%, in the CME/LND3 and NCME/LND2 groups respectively. Conclusions This is the first meta-analysis to demonstrate that CME/LND3 has superior long-term survival outcomes compared to NCME/LND2, hence a strong case can be made for incorporating CME/LND3 into standard care practice.

Abstract Objective The current treatment for locally advanced gastroesophageal junction (GEJ) adenocarcinoma consists of neoadjuvant treatment (NAT) followed by surgery. Preoperative chemotherapy (CT) and radio-chemotherapy (RCT) are both valid options, but comparative data for their efficacy remain scarce. This study aimed to assess the efficacy of RCT and CT to achieve a complete pathologic response (CPR) for locally advanced GEJ adenocarcinoma. Secondary endpoints were R0 resection rates, postoperative complications, long-term survival and recurrence. Methods All consecutive patients with locally advanced GEJ adenocarcinoma treated with CT or RCT and oncologic resection from 2009 to 2018 were included. A CPR was defined with the Mandard tumor regression score. Standard statistical tests were used as appropriate. Overall and disease-free survival were compared with the Kaplan Meier method and log-rank test. Multivariate analysis was performed to define independent predictors of CPR, and long-term survival. Results Among the 94 patients (84%male, median age 62 years [IQR 9.7]), 67 (71.3%) received preoperative RCT and 27 (28.7%) CT. Patient’s characteristics and pretreatment tumor stages were comparable. Surgical approach was thoracoabdominal Lewis resection in 95.5% RCT and 81.5% CT patients (P = 0.085). CPR was more frequent in the RCT than the CT group (13.4% vs 7.4%, P = 0.009), but R0 resection rates were similar (72.1% vs 66.7%, P = 0.628). There was a trend to higher ypN0 stage in the RCT group (55.2% vs 33.3%; P = 0.057). Postoperatively, RCT patients presented more cardiovascular complications (35.8% vs 11.1%; P = 0.017), although overall morbidity was similar (68.6% vs 62.9%, P = 0.988). 5-year overall survival was comparable (61.1% RCT vs 75.7% CT, P = 0.259), as was 5-year disease-free survival (33.5% RCT vs 22.8% CT, P = 0.763). Isolated loco-regional recurrence occurred in 2.9% RCT vs 3.7% CT patients (P = 0.976). NAT type was not an independent predictor for complete pathologic response nor long-term survival in the multivariate analysis. Median follow-up was 30 months [95%CI 21.3-38.8] for all patients. Conclusion Patients with locally advanced GEJ adenocarcinoma demonstrated higher rates of CPR after RCT than CT, and a trend to a better lymph node sterilization, although this did not translate in a significant survival benefit or decreased recurrence rate.

Abstract Objective There are limited data from retrospective studies on whether therapeutic outcomes after regular pancreatectomy are superior to those after enucleation in patients with small, peripheral and well-differentiated non-functional pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors. This study aimed to compare the short- and long-term outcomes of regular pancreatectomy and enucleation in patients with non-functional pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors. Methods Between January 2007 and July 2020, 227 patients with non-functional pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors who underwent either enucleation (n = 89) or regular pancreatectomy (n = 138) were included. Perioperative complications, disease-free survival, and overall survival probabilities were compared. Propensity score matching was performed to balance the baseline differences between the two groups. Results The median follow-up period was 60.76 months in the enucleation group and 43.29 months in the regular pancreatectomy group. In total, 34 paired patients were identified after propensity score matching. The average operative duration in the enucleation group was significantly shorter than that in the regular pancreatectomy group (147.94 ± 42.39 min versus 217.94 ± 74.60 min, P &lt; 0.001), and the estimated blood loss was also significantly lesser (P &lt; 0.001). The matched patients who underwent enucleation displayed a similar overall incidence of postoperative complications (P = 0.765), and a comparable length of hospital stay (11.12 ± 3.90 days versus 9.94 ± 2.62 days, P = 0.084) compared with those who underwent regular pancreatectomy. There were no statistically significant differences between the two groups in disease-free survival and overall survival after propensity score matching. Conclusion Enucleation in patients with non-functional pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors was associated with shorter operative time, lesser intraoperative bleeding, similar overall morbidity of postoperative complications, and comparable 5-year disease-free survival and overall survival when compared with regular pancreatectomy.
