ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND:
Postoperative readmissions not only burden the healthcare system but may also affect clinical outcomes of cancer patients. Despite this, little is known about readmissions after cytoreductive surgery (CRS) and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC), or their impact on survival outcomes. PATIENTS ANDMETHODS:
A single-institution retrospective cohort study of CRS-HIPEC procedures from April 2001 and September 2019 was performed. Early readmission (ERA) was defined as hospitalization within 30 days of discharge post-CRS/HIPEC, while late readmission (LRA) was defined as hospitalization between day 31 and 90 after discharge. Patient demographic, oncological, and perioperative factors were analyzed to identify predictors of readmission, and comparison of survival outcomes was performed.RESULTS:
Overall, 342 patients who underwent CRS-HIPEC were included in the study. The incidence of ERA and LRA was 18.5% and 7.4%, respectively. High-grade postoperative complication was the only independent predictor of ERA (HR 3.64, 95% CI 1.47-9.02), while comorbid hypertension (HR 2.71, 95% CI 1.17-6.28) and stoma creation (HR 2.83, 95% CI 1.23-6.50) were independent predictors for LRA. Patients with readmission had significantly worse disease-free survival than patients who had no readmission (NRA) (LRA 1.1 years, ERA 1.2 years, NRA 1.8 years, p = 0.002), and patients with LRA had worse median overall survival (2.1 years) than ERA patients (3.3 years) or patients without readmission (4.4 years) (p < 0.001).CONCLUSIONS:
Readmission following CRS-HIPEC is associated with adverse survival outcomes. In particular, LRA may portend worse prognosis than ERA.
