ABSTRACT
PURPOSE:
Splenic vessel involvement occurs frequently in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) of the body and the tail (B/T) but the impact on survival is unknown. We assessed the influence of radiological and pathologic involvement of splenic artery (p-SA +) and vein (p-SV +) on patient outcomes after distal pancreatectomy (DP) for PDAC.METHODS:
From 2013 to 2019, all DP for PDAC in five centers were included. Factors associated with overall (OS) and disease-free (DFS) survival were identified.RESULTS:
Among the 76 patients included, 5 (6.6%) had p-SA + only, 11 (14.5%) had p-SV + only, and 24 (31.6%) had both p-SA + and p-SV + . The preoperative CT-scan accuracy to predict p-SV + and p-SA + was high (sensitivity 91.4% and 82.8%, respectively; negative predictive value 89.7% and 88.3%, respectively). The 5-year OS and DFS rates were 3.9% and 8.3%, respectively. Multivariate analysis identified splenic vessel involvement (i.e., p-SA + or p-SV + , or both p-SA + and p-SV +) as the only independent factor influencing DFS (HR 4.04; 95% CI [1.22-13.44], p = 0.023). Tumor size ≥ 30 mm was the only independent factor influencing OS (HR 4.04; 95% CI [1.26-12.95], p = 0.019) and was associated with a high risk of p-SA + (p = 0.001) and p-SV + (p < 0.001).CONCLUSION:
Tumor size ≥ 30 mm and splenic vessel involvement occurred in more than half of the patients who underwent DP for PDAC and had negative impact on long-term survival. Preoperative CT-scan was reliable to identify splenic vessel involvement in B/T PDAC. Large tumor size and radiological splenic vessel involvement could be taken into account to propose a neoadjuvant treatment.Palabras clave
