The American Joint Committee on Cancer 7th edition (AJCC-7) and Brigham and Women's Hospital (BWH) staging criteria for cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma (cSCC) have not been validated in immunosuppressed patients.
To compare the AJCC-7 and BWH staging systems for cSCCs in immunosuppressed patients.
A single-institution retrospective cohort study of cSCCs in immunosuppressed patients. Risks of local recurrence (LR), nodal metastasis (NM), in-transit metastasis, and any poor outcome (PO) were compared among AJCC-7 and BWH tumor T stages.
One hundred six patients had 412 primary invasive cSCCs. Eighty-five percent were AJCC-7 T1, and 15% T2. Risks of NM and PO for AJCC-7 T1 versus T2 were 0.9% versus 5% and 12.8% versus 23.3%, respectively, p < .05. Eighty-one percent of tumors were BWH T1, 18% T2a, 1% T2b, and 0.2% T3. Risk of LR for BWH T1 versus T2a was 11.4% versus 20.3%, p < .01. Risk of NM increased from 0.3% for T1 to 4.1%, 25%, and 100% for T2a, T2b, and T3, p < .05. Ninety percent of PO occurred in low-stage BWH T1/T2a.
Low T-stage cSCCs account for most POs. Brigham and Women's Hospital staging criteria better risk stratifies cSCCs in immunosuppressed patients for risk of NM and LR.
美国癌症联合委员会第7版(AJCC-7)以及布莱根妇女医院(BWH)的皮肤鳞状细胞癌(cSCC)分期标准尚未在免疫抑制患者中得到验证。
比较免疫抑制患者cSCC的AJCC-7和BWH分期系统。
一项针对免疫抑制患者cSCC的单机构回顾性队列研究。比较AJCC-7和BWH肿瘤T分期中局部复发(LR)、区域淋巴结转移(NM)、途中转移以及任何不良结局(PO)的风险。
106例患者有412处原发性浸润性cSCC。85%为AJCC-7 T1期,15%为T2期。AJCC-7 T1期与T2期的NM风险和PO风险分别为0.9%对5%以及12.8%对23.3%,p < 0.05。81%的肿瘤为BWH T1期,18%为T2a期,1%为T2b期,0.2%为T3期。BWH T1期与T2a期的LR风险分别为11.4%对20.3%,p < 0.01。NM风险从T1期的0.3%增加至T2a期的4.1%、T2b期的25%以及T3期的100%,p < 0.05。90%的PO发生在低分期的BWH T1/T2a期。
低T分期的cSCC占大多数PO。布莱根妇女医院的分期标准能更好地对免疫抑制患者cSCC的NM和LR风险进行风险分层。
