Optimal modalities of surveillance of colorectal cancers (CRC) resected for cure have not been determined so far and the overall improvement of 5-year survival related to surveillance has not been demonstrated.
To retrospectively evaluate modalities, results and costs of follow-up of patients during the 5 years following the resection for cure of CRC.
We studied medical and economical data from records of 256 patients registered in the cancer registry of the Herault area who underwent a potentially curative resection of CRC in 1992. We analyzed comparatively modalities of follow-up in patients who were followed according to recommendations from the 1998 French consensus conference (standard follow-up) and in those who had a simplified follow-up. We evaluated cumulative costs of follow-up.
Nine patients died in the postoperative period. Recurrence rate was 27% (69 patients). Sixty-nine patients had a standard follow-up (30% of the 231 classified patients) and 162 patients (70%) had a simplified follow-up. The specific survival rate (taking into account only death related to CRC) 5 years after resection for cure was 75%. The 5-year specific survival rate after diagnosis of recurrence was 12% in the patients with recurrent disease within the 5 years after initial therapy. The 5-year survival rate after standard and simplified follow-up were 85% and 79%, respectively (P=0.25). Total cost of follow-up of the 256 patients was 1 085 507 French francs (FF). Mean follow-up cost per patient was 5 527 FF. Cost of the examinations not recommended by the consensus conference represented 30% of the expenses. Individual total cost of the follow-up of patients alive 5 years after the diagnosis of the recurrence was 120 356 FF.
In Herault area, clinicians carried out in 70% of the patients a simplified follow-up and in 30% of the cases a reinforced follow-up in comparison with French recommendations. Survival rates were not significantly different between the 2 groups.
目前尚未确定用于治愈性切除的结直肠癌(CRC)的最佳监测方式,且与监测相关的5年生存率的整体改善尚未得到证实。
回顾性评估CRC治愈性切除术后5年内患者的随访方式、结果及费用。
我们研究了1992年在埃罗省癌症登记处登记的256例接受了CRC潜在治愈性切除的患者记录中的医学和经济数据。我们比较分析了根据1998年法国共识会议建议进行随访的患者(标准随访)和进行简化随访的患者的随访方式。我们评估了随访的累积费用。
9例患者在术后死亡。复发率为27%(69例患者)。69例患者进行了标准随访(占231例分类患者的30%),162例患者(70%)进行了简化随访。治愈性切除术后5年的特定生存率(仅考虑与CRC相关的死亡)为75%。初始治疗后5年内复发疾病患者复发诊断后5年的特定生存率为12%。标准随访和简化随访后的5年生存率分别为85%和79%(P = 0.25)。256例患者的随访总费用为1 085 507法国法郎(FF)。每位患者的平均随访费用为5 527 FF。共识会议未推荐的检查费用占总费用的30%。复发诊断后存活5年的患者的个体随访总费用为120 356 FF。
在埃罗省,与法国的建议相比,70%的患者接受了简化随访,30%的患者接受了强化随访。两组的生存率无显著差异。
