Few studies to date have evaluated gastric cancer(GC)-related malignant neoplasm family history (MN-FH), and their findings have been largely inconsistent. The aim of this study is to evaluate the prevalence of MN-FH and its relation to the clinicopathologic features of GC.
A total of 104 hospitalized patients with primary gastric adenocarcinoma was prospectively analyzed from 2008 to 2009. Positive MN-FH was defined as MN-affected first- and second-degree relatives of the current GC cases. The relation between prevalence of positive MN-FH and clinicopathologic features in the current GC patients was assessed using the Chi-square test with Cramer's V coefficient.
Thirty-seven (35.6%) of the GC patients had positive MN-FH, with 42 associated tumors in first- and second-degree relatives. Twenty-six (61.9%) of the associated tumors were located in the digestive system, including the esophagus (26.2%), stomach (23.8%), liver (9.5%) and colon (2.4%). Lung cancers were the most prevalent non-digestive system-associated tumors (9.5%). Correlation analysis revealed no significant relations with prevalence of MN-FH and any of the clinicopathologic features (all, P > 0.05), including sex (V = 0.044), age (V = 0.060) and histological subtypes (V = 0.109).
More than one-third of the GC patients in our hospital had positive MN-FH. The most frequent forms of MN-FH were esophageal cancer and GC. The prevalence of positive MN-FH was not correlated to any of the clinicopathologic features, including sex, age and histological subtypes in the study population of GC patients.
迄今为止,很少有研究评估胃癌(GC)相关恶性肿瘤家族史(MN-FH),其结果也大不相同。本研究旨在评估 MN-FH 的发生率及其与 GC 临床病理特征的关系。
2008 年至 2009 年,前瞻性分析了 104 例原发性胃腺癌住院患者。MN-FH 阳性定义为当前 GC 病例的 MN 受累一级和二级亲属。采用卡方检验和 Cramer's V 系数评估当前 GC 患者中 MN-FH 阳性率与临床病理特征之间的关系。
37 例(35.6%)GC 患者 MN-FH 阳性,一级和二级亲属中有 42 例相关肿瘤。26 例(61.9%)相关肿瘤位于消化系统,包括食管(26.2%)、胃(23.8%)、肝(9.5%)和结肠(2.4%)。肺癌是最常见的非消化系统相关肿瘤(9.5%)。相关性分析显示,MN-FH 阳性率与任何临床病理特征均无显著相关性(均 P > 0.05),包括性别(V = 0.044)、年龄(V = 0.060)和组织学亚型(V = 0.109)。
我院超过三分之一的 GC 患者存在 MN-FH 阳性。MN-FH 最常见的形式是食管癌和 GC。MN-FH 阳性率与研究人群 GC 患者的任何临床病理特征(包括性别、年龄和组织学亚型)均无相关性。
