To determine the prognostic value of tumour contour irregularity degree (CID) in surgical strategy options for T1bN0M0 renal cell carcinoma (RCC).
We performed a retrospective multi-institutional review of 489 patients with T1bN0M0 RCC treated between January 2009 and June 2019. Cox regression and Kaplan-Meier analyses were performed to analyse the impact of CID on disease-free survival (DFS).
The median follow-up time was 55 months (interquartile range, 40-81 months) for 55 (11.2 %) patients with metastasis or recurrence. Logistic analysis indicated that CID was associated with World Health Organization/International Society of Urological Pathology (WHO/ISUP) grades III-IV (odds ratio, 1.015; 95 % confidence interval [CI], 1.008-1.023; p < 0.001). After being classified into high CID (≥50 %) and low CID (<50 %) groups, those with a high CID showed a significantly higher ratio of WHO/IUSP grades III-IV (74/277 [26.7 %] vs 25/212 [11.8 %]) and shorter DFS than the low CID group (p < 0.001). Multivariable Cox regression showed that partial nephrectomy (PN; hazard ratio [HR], 1.889; 95 % CI, 1.020-3.499; p = 0.043), high CID (HR, 6.685; 95 % CI, 2.776-16.100; p < 0.001), and WHO/ISUP grade III-IV (HR, 1.950; 95 % CI, 1.100-3.458; p = 0.022) were independent prognostic factors for DFS. The Kaplan-Meier plot showed that PN had a DFS rate comparable to that of radical nephrectomy (RN; p = 0.994). In the low CID group, patients who underwent PN showed comparable DFS to those who underwent RN (p = 0.903). Furthermore, patients with a high CID tended to have worse DFS in the PN versus RN group (p = 0.044). Multivariable Cox regression showed that PN (HR, 2.049; 95 % CI, 1.065-3.942; p = 0.032) and WHO/ISUP grade III-IV (HR, 2.148; 95 % CI, 1.189-3.881; p = 0.011) were independent prognostic factors of DFS in the high CID group.
CID is a reliable preoperative parameter which is positively correlated with WHO/ISUP grade and can help with surgical decision-making in patients with T1bN0M0 RCC.
确定肿瘤轮廓不规则程度(CID)在 T1bN0M0 肾细胞癌(RCC)手术策略选择中的预后价值。
我们对 2009 年 1 月至 2019 年 6 月期间接受治疗的 489 例 T1bN0M0 RCC 患者进行了回顾性多机构研究。采用 Cox 回归和 Kaplan-Meier 分析来分析 CID 对无病生存(DFS)的影响。
55 例(11.2%)患者出现转移或复发,中位随访时间为 55 个月(四分位距,40-81 个月)。逻辑分析表明 CID 与世界卫生组织/国际泌尿病理学会(WHO/ISUP)分级 III-IV 相关(优势比,1.015;95%置信区间 [CI],1.008-1.023;p<0.001)。将 CID 分为高 CID(≥50%)和低 CID(<50%)两组后,高 CID 组的 WHO/IUSP 分级 III-IV 比例明显更高(74/277 [26.7%] vs 25/212 [11.8%]),DFS 更短(p<0.001)。多变量 Cox 回归显示,部分肾切除术(PN;风险比 [HR],1.889;95%CI,1.020-3.499;p=0.043)、高 CID(HR,6.685;95%CI,2.776-16.100;p<0.001)和 WHO/ISUP 分级 III-IV(HR,1.950;95%CI,1.100-3.458;p=0.022)是 DFS 的独立预后因素。Kaplan-Meier 图显示 PN 的 DFS 率与根治性肾切除术(RN;p=0.994)相当。在低 CID 组中,行 PN 的患者与行 RN 的患者的 DFS 相当(p=0.903)。此外,高 CID 患者在 PN 与 RN 组中的 DFS 更差(p=0.044)。多变量 Cox 回归显示,PN(HR,2.049;95%CI,1.065-3.942;p=0.032)和 WHO/ISUP 分级 III-IV(HR,2.148;95%CI,1.189-3.881;p=0.011)是高 CID 组 DFS 的独立预后因素。
CID 是一种可靠的术前参数,与 WHO/ISUP 分级呈正相关,可帮助 T1bN0M0 RCC 患者做出手术决策。
