ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND:
Two-stage hepatectomy for bilobar colorectal cancer liver metastases is potentially curative for selected patients. Histological growth patterns of colorectal liver metastases (desmoplastic, replacement, and pushing) have prognostic value. Our aim was to evaluate their association with pathologic response to preoperative treatment, second-stage hepatectomy completion, and survival in patients treated with a curative-intent 2-stage hepatectomy.METHODS:
In 67 patients planned for 2-stage hepatectomy, colorectal liver metastases resected from the first-stage hepatectomy were retrospectively evaluated for growth patterns and pathologic response according to Tumor Regression Grading, modified Tumor Regression Grading, and Blazer grading. Tumor Regression Grading 1 to 3, modified Tumor Regression Grading 1 to 3, and Blazer 0 and 1 defined good responders.RESULTS:
Desmoplastic growth patterns (GP) were more frequent among good responders (P < .001). Second-stage hepatectomy completion was associated with desmoplastic growth patterns and pathologic response on univariate analysis and multivariable analyses (P = .017 and P = .041, respectively). Median follow-up was 84 months (95% confidence interval 53.4 [not reached]). Nondesmoplastic GP patients and nonresponders had a poorer overall survival (hazard ratio = 3.86, 95% confidence interval 2.11-7.07, P < .001 and hazard ratio = 2.14, 95% confidence interval 1.19-3.83, P = .009, respectively) on univariate analysis. Nondesmoplastic growth pattern was the only factor associated with a poorer overall survival on multivariable analysis (hazard ratio = 4.17, 95% confidence interval 1.79-9.74, P < .001). Nondesmoplastic GP was also associated with a poorer recurrence-free survival (hazard ratio = 2.05, 95% confidence interval 1.13-3.70, P = .017).CONCLUSION:
Desmoplastic GP could represent a useful morphological marker for early identification of patients who might benefit from 2-stage hepatectomy completion.
