ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND:
Self-expanding metallic stents (SEMSs) are used as a bridge to surgery in patients with obstructive colorectal cancer. However, the role of laparoscopic resection after successful stent deployment is not well established. We aimed to compare the oncologic outcomes of laparoscopic vs open surgery after successful colonic stent deployment in patients with obstructive left-sided colorectal cancer.METHODS:
In this multicenter study, 179 (97 laparoscopy, 82 open surgery) patients with obstructive left-sided colorectal cancer who underwent radical resection with curative intent after successful stent deployment were retrospectively reviewed. To minimize bias, we used inverse probability treatment-weighted propensity score analysis. The short- and long-term outcomes between the groups were compared.RESULTS:
Both groups had similar demographic and tumor characteristics. The operation time was longer, but the degree of blood loss was lower in the laparoscopy than in the open surgery group. There were nine (9.3%) open conversions. After adjustment, the groups showed similar patient and tumor characteristics. The 5-year disease-free survival (DFS) (laparoscopic vs open 68.7% vs 48.5%, p = 0.230) and overall survival (OS) (laparoscopic vs open 79.1% vs 69.0%, p = 0.200) estimates did not differ significantly across a median follow-up duration of 50.5 months. Advanced stage disease (DFS hazard ratio [HR] 1.825, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.072-3.107; OS HR 2.441, 95% CI 1.216-4.903) and post-operative chemotherapy omission (DFS HR 2.529, 95% CI 1.481-4.319; OS HR 2.666, 95% CI 1.370-5.191) were associated with relatively worse long-term outcomes.CONCLUSION:
Stent insertion followed by laparoscopy with curative intent is safe and feasible; the addition of post-operative chemotherapy should be considered after successful treatment.Palabras clave
