Few studies compared the oncological and biological characteristics between ampullary carcinoma (AC) and cancer of the second portion of the duodenum (DC-II), although both tumors arise from anatomically close locations.
To elucidate differences in clinicopathological characteristics, especially the patterns of lymph node metastasis (LNM), between AC and DC-II.
This was a retrospective cohort study of 80 patients with AC and 27 patients with DC-II who underwent pancreaticoduodenectomy between January 1998 and December 2018 in two institutions. Clinicopathological factors, LNM patterns, and prognosis were compared between the two groups.
The patients with AC and DC-II did not exhibit significant differences in 5-year overall survival (66.0% and 67.1%, respectively) and 5-year relapse-free survival (63.5% and 62.2%, respectively). Compared to the patients with DC-II, the rate of preoperative biliary drainage was higher ( = 0.042) and the rates of digestive symptoms ( = 0.0158), ulcerative-type cancer ( < 0.0001), large tumor diameter ( < 0.0001), and advanced tumor stage ( = 0.0019) were lower in the patients with AC. The LNM rates were 27.5% and 40.7% in patients with AC and DC-II, respectively, without significant difference ( = 0.23). The rates of LNM to hepatic nodes (N-He) and pyloric nodes (N-Py) were significantly higher in patients with DC-II than in those with AC (metastasis to N-HE: 18.5% and 5% in patients with DC-II and AC, respectively; = 0.0432; metastasis to N-Py: 11.1% and 0% in patients with DC-II and AC, respectively; = 0.0186).
Although there were no significant differences in the prognosis and recurrence rates between the two groups, metastases to N-He and N-Py were more frequent in patients with DC-II than in those with AC.
尽管壶腹癌(AC)和十二指肠第二段癌(DC-II)均起源于解剖位置相近的部位,但很少有研究比较二者的肿瘤学和生物学特征。
阐明AC和DC-II在临床病理特征上的差异,尤其是淋巴结转移(LNM)模式。
这是一项回顾性队列研究,研究对象为1998年1月至2018年12月期间在两家机构接受胰十二指肠切除术的80例AC患者和27例DC-II患者。比较两组的临床病理因素、LNM模式和预后。
AC和DC-II患者的5年总生存率(分别为66.0%和67.1%)和5年无复发生存率(分别为63.5%和62.2%)无显著差异。与DC-II患者相比,AC患者术前胆道引流率更高(P = 0.042),消化症状发生率(P = 0.0158)、溃疡型癌发生率(P < 0.0001)、肿瘤直径较大(P < 0.0001)和肿瘤晚期发生率(P = 0.0019)更低。AC和DC-II患者的LNM率分别为27.5%和40.7%,无显著差异(P = 0.23)。DC-II患者肝门淋巴结(N-He)和幽门淋巴结(N-Py)转移率显著高于AC患者(N-HE转移:DC-II患者和AC患者分别为18.5%和5%;P = 0.0432;N-Py转移:DC-II患者和AC患者分别为11.1%和0%;P = 0.0186)。
尽管两组患者的预后和复发率无显著差异,但DC-II患者N-He和N-Py转移比AC患者更常见。
