Atypical teratoid/rhabdoid tumor (AT/RT) is well documented in children but less so in adults because of its rarity.
We report a series of five cases, a literature review and quantitative analysis of the survival outcome of adult AT/RT patients.
Seventy-four patients including our five cases (male: female = 16: 58) were evaluated, whose median age was 32.5 years (18-80 years). The commonest location was the sellar region. Median overall survival (OS) was 12.5 months (0.5-204.00 months). Chemotherapy was associated with OS (HR: 0.349, 95%CI: 0.176-0.694, = 0.003), while other factors did not influence OS. From Kaplan-Meier analysis, surgery combining postoperative chemotherapy and radiotherapy was associated with better prognosis (Log Rank: = 14.662, = 0.001).
Adult AT/RT is commoner in females and tends to recur rapidly after surgical resection. Chemotherapy may provide a survival benefit. Surgery combined with postoperative chemotherapy and radiotherapy was associated with better prognosis for adult AT/RT patients, though the overall prognosis was still poor.
虽然在儿童中已有充分的关于非典型畸胎样/横纹肌样肿瘤(AT/RT)的文献记载,但由于其罕见性,在成人中相关报道较少。
我们报道了 5 例病例,并进行了文献复习和对成人 AT/RT 患者生存结果的定量分析。
共评估了 74 例患者(包括我们的 5 例患者,男性:女性=16:58),中位年龄为 32.5 岁(18-80 岁)。最常见的部位是鞍区。中位总生存期(OS)为 12.5 个月(0.5-204.00 个月)。化疗与 OS 相关(HR:0.349,95%CI:0.176-0.694,P=0.003),而其他因素不影响 OS。从 Kaplan-Meier 分析来看,手术联合术后化疗和放疗与更好的预后相关(Log Rank:P=14.662,P=0.001)。
成人 AT/RT 以女性多见,且在手术切除后迅速复发。化疗可能会带来生存获益。手术联合术后化疗和放疗与成人 AT/RT 患者的预后相关,尽管总体预后仍较差。
