Recent studies have shown that radical gastrectomy with extended lymphadenectomy is feasible in gastric cancer patients with liver cirrhosis, but in those studies the main proportion was Child-Pugh class A patients. It is still difficult to choose reasonable surgical strategies for gastric cancer patients with cirrhosis, especially for Child-Pugh class B patients.
We reviewed the medical records of patients with liver cirrhosis who had undergone radical gastrectomy between January 2001 and December 2012. The clinical characteristics, postoperative complications, mortality and long-term outcomes in the 58 patients were investigated.
Severe complications and postoperative mortality occurred more frequently in class B patients than in class A patients (P < 0.05). In patients with class A and B, the complications and mortality rate was 37.5% and 4.2% in D1 lymph node dissection group and 71.9% and 25% in D2 lymph node dissection group, respectively. Kaplan-Meier survival analysis showed longer survival for class A patients than for class B patients (P < 0.05). For class B patients with advanced gastric cancer, D2 lymph node dissection could not provide a longer survival than D1 lymph node dissection (P = 0.282).
Radical operation with D1 or D2 lymph node dissection can be tolerated in class A gastric cancer patients. D1 lymph node dissection is recommended in class B patients, and radical gastrectomy is very dangerous, even fatal for class C patients.
最近的研究表明,对于合并肝硬化的胃癌患者,扩大淋巴结清扫的根治性胃切除术是可行的,但这些研究的主要比例为 Child-Pugh 分级 A 患者。对于合并肝硬化的胃癌患者,特别是 Child-Pugh 分级 B 患者,仍然难以选择合理的手术策略。
我们回顾了 2001 年 1 月至 2012 年 12 月期间接受根治性胃切除术的肝硬化患者的病历。研究了 58 例患者的临床特征、术后并发症、死亡率和长期预后。
B 级患者的严重并发症和术后死亡率明显高于 A 级患者(P < 0.05)。在 A 级和 B 级患者中,D1 淋巴结清扫组的并发症和死亡率分别为 37.5%和 4.2%,D2 淋巴结清扫组分别为 71.9%和 25%。Kaplan-Meier 生存分析显示 A 级患者的生存时间长于 B 级患者(P < 0.05)。对于进展期胃癌的 B 级患者,D2 淋巴结清扫并不能提供比 D1 淋巴结清扫更长的生存时间(P = 0.282)。
A 级胃癌患者可耐受 D1 或 D2 淋巴结清扫的根治性手术。B 级患者推荐行 D1 淋巴结清扫,而 C 级患者行根治性胃切除术非常危险,甚至致命。
