RESUMO

OBJECTIVE: To update the current Sarculator retroperitoneal sarcoma (RPS) prognostic nomograms considering the improvement in patient prognosis and the case volume effect. BACKGROUND: Survival of patients with primary RPS has been increasing over time, and the volume-outcome relationship has been well recognized. Nevertheless, the specific impact on prognostic nomograms is unknown. METHODS: All consecutive adult patients with primary localized RPS treated at 8 European and North American sarcoma reference centers between 2010 and 2017 were included. Patients were divided into 2 groups: high-volume centers (HVC, ≥13 cases/year) and low-volume centers (LVC, <13 cases/year). Primary end points were overall survival (OS) and disease-free survival (DFS). Multivariable analyses for OS and DFS were performed. The nomograms were updated by recalibration. Nomograms performance was assessed in terms of discrimination (Harrell C index) and calibration (calibration plot). RESULTS: The HVC and LVC groups comprised 857 and 244 patients, respectively. The median annual primary RPS case volume (interquartile range) was 24.0 in HVC (15.0-41.3) and 9.0 in LVC (1.8-10.3). Five-year OS was 71.4% (95% CI: 68.3%-74.7%) in the HVC cohort and 63.3% (56.8%-70.5%) in the LVC cohort ( P =0.012). Case volume was associated with both OS (LVC vs. HVC hazard ratio 1.40, 95% CI: 1.08-1.82, P =0.011) and DFS (hazard ratio 1.93, 95% CI: 1.57-2.37, P <0.001) at multivariable analyses. When applied to the study cohorts, the Sarculator nomograms showed good discrimination (Harrell C index between 0.68 and 0.73). The recalibrated nomograms showed good calibration in the HVC group, whereas the original nomograms showed good calibration in the LVC group. CONCLUSIONS: New nomograms for patients with primary RPS treated with surgery at high-volume versus low-volume sarcoma reference centers are available in the Sarculator app.

RESUMO

OBJECTIVE: The aim of the present study was to compare the effect of radiotherapy (RT) on abdominal recurrence-free survival (ARFS) in patients with primary retroperitoneal sarcoma treated in the EORTC-STBSG-62092 (STRASS) phase 3 randomized controlled trial (STRASS cohort) and off-trial (STREXIT cohort) and to pool STRASS and STREXIT data to test the hypothesis that RT improves ARFS in patients with liposarcoma. BACKGROUND: The STRASS trial did not show any difference in ARFS between patients treated with preoperative radiotherapy+surgery (RT+S) versus surgery alone (S). METHODS: All consecutive adult patients not enrolled in STRASS and underwent curative-intent surgery for a primary retroperitoneal sarcoma with or without preoperative RT between 2012 and 2017 (STRASS recruiting period) among ten STRASS-recruiting centres formed the STREXIT cohort. The effect of RT in STREXIT was explored with a propensity score (PS)-matching analysis. Primary endpoint was ARFS defined as macroscopically incomplete resection or abdominal recurrence or death of any cause, whichever occurred first. RESULTS: STRASS included 266 patients, STREXIT included 831 patients (727 after excluding patients who received preoperative chemotherapy, 202 after 1:1 PS-matching). The effect of RT on ARFS in STRASS and 1:1 PS-matched STREXIT cohorts, overall and in patients with liposarcoma, was similar. In the pooled cohort analysis, RT administration was associated with better ARFS in patients with liposarcoma [N=321, hazard ratio (HR), 0.61; 95% confidence interval (CI), 0.42-0.89]. In particular, patients with well-differentiated liposarcoma and G1-2 dedifferentiated liposarcoma (G1-2 DDLPS, n=266) treated with RT+S had better ARFS (HR, 0.63; 95% CI, 0.40-0.97) while patients with G3 DDLPS and leiomyosarcoma had not. At the current follow-up, there was no association between RT and overall survival or distant metastases-free survival. CONCLUSIONS: In this study, preoperative RT was associated with better ARFS in patients with primary well-differentiated liposarcoma and G1-2 DDLPS.

RESUMO

OBJECTIVE: The Transatlantic Australasian Retroperitoneal Sarcoma Working Group conducted a retrospective study on the disease course and clinical management of ganglioneuromas. BACKGROUND: Ganglioneuromas are rare tumors derived from neural crest cells. Data on these tumors remain limited to case reports and single-institution case series. METHODS: Patients of all ages with pathologically confirmed primary retroperitoneal, intra-abdominal, and pelvic ganglioneuromas between January 1, 2000, and January 1, 2020, were included. We examined demographic, clinicopathologic, and radiologic characteristics, as well as clinical management. RESULTS: Overall, 328 patients from 29 institutions were included. The median age at diagnosis was 37 years with 59.1% of patients being female. Symptomatic presentation comprised 40.9% of cases, and tumors were often located in the extra-adrenal retroperitoneum (67.1%). At baseline, the median maximum tumor diameter was 7.2 cm. One hundred sixteen (35.4%) patients underwent active surveillance, whereas 212 (64.6%) patients underwent resection with 74.5% of operative cases achieving an R0/R1 resection. Serial tumor evaluations showed that malignant transformation to neuroblastoma was rare (0.9%, N=3). Tumors undergoing surveillance had a median follow-up of 1.9 years, with 92.2% of ganglioneuromas stable in size. With a median follow-up of 3.0 years for resected tumors, 84.4% of patients were disease free after resections, whereas recurrences were observed in 4 (1.9%) patients. CONCLUSIONS: Most ganglioneuromas have indolent disease courses and rarely transform to neuroblastoma. Thus, active surveillance may be appropriate for benign and asymptomatic tumors particularly when the risks of surgery outweigh the benefits. For symptomatic or growing tumors, resection may be curative.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Myxoid liposarcoma (LPS) has a unique tendency to spread to extrapulmonary sites, including osseous sites such as the spine, and adjacent sites such as the paraspinous tissue. No clear consensus exists to guide the approach to imaging in these patients. OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study was to investigate the rate and distribution of spine metastases in patients with myxoid LPS and detection modality. METHODS: Records of all patients with myxoid LPS evaluated at our sarcoma center were retrospectively reviewed. Disease patterns and imaging modality utilization were analyzed. RESULTS: Between 2000 and 2020, 164 patients with myxoid LPS were identified. The majority (n = 148, 90%) presented with localized disease, with half (n = 82, 50%) of all patients developing metastases or recurrence during their disease course. With a median follow-up of 69.2 months, spine/paraspinous metastases developed in 38 patients (23%), of whom 35 (92%) already had synchronous, non-spine metastases. Spine disease was only visible on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), as opposed to other imaging modalities, for over one-quarter of patients with spine metastases (n = 10). For patients with metastatic disease, spine metastases were associated with worse median overall survival (2.1 vs. 8.7 years, p < 0.001). CONCLUSION: Spine metastases occurred in nearly one-quarter of patients with myxoid LPS and represented an advanced disease state, as they primarily presented in the setting of synchronous, non-spine metastases, and were associated with worse overall survival. Routine surveillance with spine MRI in patients with localized disease likely provides no benefit but may be considered in those with known metastatic disease.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Regional lymph node metastasis (RLNM) occurs infrequently in patients with soft tissue sarcoma (STS), although certain STS subtypes have a higher propensity for RLNM. The identification of RLNM has significant implications for staging and prognosis; however, the precise impact of node-positive disease on patient survival remains a topic of controversy. Although the benefits of sentinel lymph node biopsy (SLNB) are well documented in patients with melanoma and breast cancer, whether this procedure offers a benefit in STS is controversial. METHODS: A systematic literature search was performed and articles reviewed to determine if SLNB in patients with extremity/truncal STS impacts disease-free or overall survival. RESULTS: Six studies were included. Rates of sentinel lymph node positivity were heterogeneous (range 4.3-50%). The impact of SLNB on patient outcomes remains unclear. The overall quality of available evidence was low, as assessed by the Grading of Recommendations, Assessment, Development, and Evaluation system. CONCLUSIONS: The literature addressing the impact of nodal basin evaluation on the staging and management of patients with extremity/truncal STS is confounded by heterogeneous patient cohorts and clinical practices. Multicenter prospective studies are warranted to determine the true incidence of RLNM and whether SLNB could benefit patients with clinically occult RLNM at diagnosis.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Neoadjuvant imatinib is used to downstage surgery for large and/or unfavorably located gastric gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs), but data regarding minimally invasive surgery (MIS) after neoadjuvant imatinib are limited. PATIENTS AND METHODS: We analyzed patients undergoing resection of nonmetastatic primary gastric GISTs larger than or equal to 4.5 cm in diameter at our institution between 2009 and 2020, as no tumors below this size received neoadjuvant imatinib. RESULTS: We identified 71 patients, 43 of whom (61%) received neoadjuvant imatinib. Patients receiving neoadjuvant imatinib had larger tumors at diagnosis [median diameter 8.6 cm (range 4.5-25 cm) versus 5.9 cm (range 4.5-11 cm), p < 0.01]. After a median 7.2 months of imatinib, tumors shrank by a median 34% in diameter, such that there was no longer a significant size difference at time of surgery between groups (median 6.3 cm versus 5.9 cm, p = 0.69). Of 29 patients for whom neoadjuvant imatinib was used to facilitate MIS, 21 (72%) underwent successful MIS, which accounted for 49% of the entire neoadjuvant cohort. In a multivariable regression model, smaller tumor size at time of surgery was predictive of successful MIS, but tumor location was not. CONCLUSIONS: Neoadjuvant imatinib caused significant tumor shrinkage, and MIS was successful in 72% of cases for which neoadjuvant imatinib was intended to facilitate it. Smaller tumor size at time of surgery, but not tumor location, was associated with successful MIS, which may help inform patient selection for neoadjuvant imatinib.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Disparities based on socioeconomic factors such as race, ethnicity, marital status, and insurance status are associated with pancreatic cancer resection, but these disparities are usually not observed for survival after resection. It is unknown if there are disparities when patients undergo their treatment in a non-fee-for-service, equal-access healthcare system such as the Veterans Health Administration (VHA). METHODS: Patients having T1-T3 M0 pancreatic adenocarcinoma diagnosed between 2006 and 2017 were identified from the VHA Corporate Data Warehouse. Socioeconomic, demographic, and tumor variables associated with resection and survival were assessed. RESULTS: In total, 2580 patients with early-stage pancreatic cancer were identified. The resection rate was 36.5%. Surgical resection was independently associated with younger age [odds ratio (OR) 0.94, p < 0.001], White race (OR 1.35, p = 0.028), married status (OR 1.85, p = 0.001), and employment status (retired vs. unemployed, OR 1.41, p = 0.008). There were no independent associations with Hispanic ethnicity, geographic region, or Social Deprivation Index. Resection was associated with significantly improved survival (median 21 vs. 8 months, p = 0.001). Among resected patients, survival was independently associated with younger age (HR 1.019, p = 0.002), geographic region (South vs. Pacific West, HR 0.721, p = 0.005), and employment (employed vs. unemployed, HR 0.752, p = 0.029). Race, Hispanic ethnicity, marital status, and Social Deprivation Index were not independently associated with survival after resection. CONCLUSIONS: Race, marital status, and employment status are independently associated with resection of pancreatic cancer in the VHA, whereas geographic region and employment status are independently associated with survival after resection. Further studies are warranted to determine the basis for these inequities.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Surgery is the mainstay of treatment for retroperitoneal sarcoma (RPS), but local recurrence is common. Biologic behavior and recurrence patterns differ significantly among histologic types of RPS, with implications for management. The Transatlantic Australasian RPS Working Group (TARPSWG) published a consensus approach to primary RPS, and to complement this, one for recurrent RPS in 2016. Since then, additional studies have been published, and collaborative discussion is ongoing to address the clinical challenges of local recurrence in RPS. METHODS: An extensive literature search was performed, and the previous consensus statements for recurrent RPS were updated after review by TARPSWG members. The search included the most common RPS histologic types: liposarcoma, leiomyosarcoma, solitary fibrous tumor, undifferentiated pleomorphic sarcoma, and malignant peripheral nerve sheath tumor. RESULTS: Recurrent RPS management was evaluated from diagnosis to follow-up evaluation. For appropriately selected patients, resection is safe. Nomograms currently are available to help predict outcome after resection. These and other new findings have been combined with expert recommendations to provide 36 statements, each of which is attributed a level of evidence and grade of recommendation. In this updated document, more emphasis is placed on histologic type and clarification of the intent for surgical treatment, either curative or palliative. Overall, the fundamental tenet of optimal care for patients with recurrent RPS remains individualized treatment after multidisciplinary discussion by an experienced team with expertise in RPS. CONCLUSIONS: Updated consensus recommendations are provided to help guide decision-making for treatment of locally recurrent RPS and better selection of patients who would potentially benefit from surgery.

RESUMO

INTRODUCTION: Despite the advances in treatment, there are low rates of liver metastasectomy for colorectal cancer with liver metastasis (CRLM) in the United States. The aim of this study was to investigate the association between likelihood of liver metastasectomy for CRLM and seeking care at >1 versus 1 Commission on Cancer (CoC) hospital. METHODS: We performed a retrospective analysis of the National Cancer Database (2011-2017) for patients with CRLM. Patients were grouped based on seeking care at 1 CoC hospital or >1 CoC hospital. An adjusted multivariable Poisson regression interaction analysis was used to evaluate likelihood of liver metastasectomy for CRLM according to race and whether care was sought at >1 CoC hospital. RESULTS: We identified 25,956 patients with CRLM without extra-hepatic disease. 23,088 (89.0%) patients visited 1 CoC hospital and 2868 (11.1%) visited >1 CoC hospital. Black patients were less likely to seek care at >1 CoC hospital (relative risk [RR] 0.68, confidence intervalCI 0.60-0.76, P < 0.001). Undergoing liver metastasectomy was associated with higher likelihood of seeking care at >1 CoC hospital (RR 1.27, CI 1.26-1.52, P < 0.001). Among patients who sought care at >1 CoC hospital, there was no significant difference between White and Black patients undergoing liver metastasectomy (RR 0.86, 95% CI 0.71-1.04, P = 0.11). CONCLUSIONS: Patients with CRLM who sought care at >1 CoC hospital were more likely to undergo a liver metastasectomy. Among White and Black patients who sought care at >1 CoC hospital, there was no difference in likelihood of undergoing a liver metastasectomy.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Several studies have identified disparities in pancreatic cancer treatment associated with gender, race, and ethnicity. There are limited data examining disparities in short-term adverse outcomes after pancreatic resection for cancer. The aim of this study is to evaluate associations of gender, race, and ethnicity with morbidity and mortality after pancreatic resection for malignancy. METHODS: The American College of Surgeons National Surgical Quality Improvement database was retrospectively reviewed. The χ2 test and Student's t-test were used for univariable analysis and hierarchical logistic regression for multivariable analysis. RESULTS: Morbidity and major morbidity after pancreaticoduodenectomy are associated with male gender, Asian race, and Hispanic ethnicity, whereas 30-day mortality is associated with the male gender. Morbidity and major morbidity after distal pancreatectomy are associated with the male gender. Morbidity after pancreaticoduodenectomy is independently associated with male gender, Asian race, and Hispanic ethnicity; major morbidity is independently associated with male gender and Asian race, and mortality is independently associated with Hispanic ethnicity. CONCLUSIONS: Gender, race, and ethnicity are independently associated with morbidity after pancreaticoduodenectomy for cancer; gender and race are independently associated with major morbidity; and ethnicity is independently associated with mortality. Further studies are warranted to determine the basis of these associations.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: In patients with retroperitoneal sarcoma (RPS), the incidence of recurrence after surgery remains high. Novel treatment approaches are needed. This retrospective study evaluated patients with primary, high-risk RPS who received neoadjuvant systemic therapy followed by surgery to 1) determine the frequency and potential predictors of radiologic tumor responses and 2) assess clinical outcomes. METHODS: Clinicopathologic data were collected for eligible patients treated at 13 sarcoma referral centers from 2008 to 2018. Univariable and multivariable logistic models were performed to assess the association between clinical predictors and response. Overall survival (OS) and crude cumulative incidences of local recurrence and distant metastasis were compared. RESULTS: Data on 158 patients were analyzed. A median of 3 cycles of neoadjuvant systemic therapy (interquartile range, 2-4 cycles) were given. The regimens were mostly anthracycline based; however, there was significant heterogeneity. No patients demonstrated a complete response, 37 (23%) demonstrated a partial response (PR), 88 (56%) demonstrated stable disease, and 33 (21%) demonstrated progressive disease (PD) according to the Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors, version 1.1. Only a higher number of cycles given was positively associated with PR (P = .005). All patients underwent complete resection, regardless of the tumor response. Overall, patients whose tumors demonstrated PD before surgery showed markedly worse OS (P = .005). An indication of a better clinical outcome was seen in specific regimens given for grade 3 dedifferentiated liposarcoma and leiomyosarcoma. CONCLUSIONS: In patients with high-risk RPS, the response to neoadjuvant systemic therapy is fair overall. Disease progression on therapy may be used to predict survival after surgery. Subtype-specific regimens should be further validated.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: This study aimed to investigate changes in treatment strategy and outcome for patients with primary retroperitoneal sarcoma (RPS) undergoing resection at referral centers during a recent period. METHODS: The study enrolled consecutive adult patients with primary non-metastatic RPS who underwent resection with curative intent between 2002 and 2017 at 10 referral centers. The patients were grouped into three periods according to date of surgery: t1 (2002-2006), t2 (2007-2011), and t3 (2012-2017). Five-year overall survival (OS), disease-specific survival (DSS), and crude cumulative incidence (CCI) of local recurrence (LR) and distant metastasis (DM) were calculated. Multivariable analyses for OS and DSS were performed. RESULTS: The study included 1942 patients. The median follow-up period after resection varied from 130 months (interquartile range [IQR], 124-141 months) in t1 to 37 months (IQR, 35-39 months) in t3. The 5-year OS was 61.2% (95% confidence interval [CI], 56.4-66.3%) in t1, 67.0% (95 CI, 63.2-71.0%) in t2, and 71.9% (95% CI, 67.7-76.1%) in t3. The rate of macroscopically incomplete resection (R2) was 7.1% in t1 versus 4.7% in t3 (p = 0.066). The median number of resected organs increased over time (p < 0.001). In the multivariable analysis resection during t3 was associated with better OS and DSS. The 90-day postoperative mortality improved over time (4.3% in t1 to 2.3% in t3; p = 0.031). The 5-year CCI of LR and DM did not change significantly over time. CONCLUSIONS: The long-term survival of patients who underwent resection for primary RPS has increased during the past 15 years. This increased survival is attributable to better patient selection for resection, quality of surgery, and perioperative patient management.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Local recurrence following resection of retroperitoneal liposarcoma (RLPS) is common. Well-differentiated (WD) and dedifferentiated (DD) RLPS are distinct entities with differing outcomes. A few reports suggest that WDLPS can recur as DDLPS and that DDLPS can recur as WDLPS. This study evaluates whether this change in differentiation from the primary tumor to the first local recurrence impacts long-term outcomes. METHODS: Retrospective review from 22 sarcoma centers identified consecutive patients who underwent resection for a first locally recurrent RLPS from January 2002 to December 2011. Outcomes measured included overall survival, local recurrence, and distant metastasis. RESULTS: A total of 421 RPLS patients were identified. Of the 230 patients with primary DDLPS, 34 (15%) presented WDLPS upon recurrence (DD → WD); and of the 191 patients with primary WDLPS, 54 (28%) presented DDLPS upon recurrence (WD → DD). The 6-year overall survival probabilities (95% CI) for DD → DD, DD → WD, WD → WD, and WD → DD were 40% (32-48%), 73% (58-92%), 76% (68-85%), and 56% (43-73%) (p < 0.001), respectively. The 6-year second local recurrence incidence was 66% (59-73%), 63% (48-82%), 66% (57-76%), and 77% (66-90%), respectively. The 6-year distant metastasis incidence was 13% (9-19%), 3% (0.4-22%), 5% (2-11%), and 4% (1-16%), respectively. On multivariable analysis, DD → WD was associated with improved overall survival when compared with DD → DD (p < 0.001). Moreover, WD → DD was associated with a higher risk of LR (p = 0.025) CONCLUSION: A change in RLPS differentiation from primary tumor to first local recurrence appears to impact survival. These findings may be useful in counseling patients on their prognosis and subsequent management.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: This study aimed to evaluate perioperative morbidity after surgery for first locally recurrent (LR1) retroperitoneal sarcoma (RPS). Data concerning the safety of resecting recurrent RPS are lacking. METHODS: Data were collected on all patients undergoing resection of RPS-LR1 at 22 Trans-Atlantic Australasian Retroperitoneal Sarcoma Working Group (TARPSWG) centers from 2002 to 2011. Uni- and multivariable logistic models were fitted to study the association between major (Clavien-Dindo grade ≥ 3) complications and patient/surgery characteristics as well as outcome. The resected organ score, a method of standardizing the number of organs resected, as previously described by the TARPSWG, was used. RESULTS: The 681 patients in this study had a median age of 59 years, and 51.8% were female. The most common histologic subtype was de-differentiated liposarcoma (43%), the median resected organ score was 1, and 83.3% of the patients achieved an R0 or R1 resection. Major complications occurred for 16% of the patients, and the 90-day mortality rate was 0.4%. In the multivariable analysis, a transfusion requirement was found to be a significant predictor of major complications (p < 0.001) and worse overall survival (OS) (p = 0.010). However, having a major complication was not associated with a worse OS or a higher incidence of local recurrence or distant metastasis. CONCLUSIONS: A surgical approach to recurrent RPS is relatively safe and comparable with primary RPS in terms of complications and postoperative mortality when performed at specialized sarcoma centers. Because alternative effective therapies still are lacking, when indicated, resection of a recurrent RPS is a reasonable option. Every effort should be made to minimize the need for blood transfusions.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Retroperitoneal soft tissue sarcomas comprise a heterogeneous group of rare tumors of mesenchymal origin that include several well-defined histologic subtypes. In 2015, the Transatlantic Australasian RPS Working Group (TARPSWG) published consensus recommendations for the best management of primary retroperitoneal sarcoma (RPS). Since then, through international collaboration, new evidence and knowledge have been generated, creating the need for an updated consensus document. METHODS: The primary aim of this study was to critically evaluate the current evidence and develop an up-to-date consensus document on the approach to these difficult tumors. The resulting document applies to primary RPS that is non-visceral in origin, with exclusion criteria as previously described. The relevant literature was evaluated and an international group of experts consulted to formulate consensus statements regarding the best management of primary RPS. A level of evidence and grade of recommendation were attributed to each new/updated recommendation. RESULTS: Management of primary RPS was considered from diagnosis to follow-up. This rare and complex malignancy is best managed by an experienced multidisciplinary team in a specialized referral center. The best chance of cure is at the time of primary presentation, and an individualized management plan should be made based on the 29 consensus statements included in this article, which were agreed upon by all of the authors. Whenever possible, patients should be enrolled in prospective trials and studies. CONCLUSIONS: Ongoing international collaboration is critical to expand upon current knowledge and further improve outcomes of patients with RPS. In addition, prospective data collection and participation in multi-institution trials are strongly encouraged.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Multi-visceral resection often is used in the treatment of retroperitoneal sarcoma (RPS). The morbidity after distal pancreatectomy for primary pancreatic cancer is well-documented, but the outcomes after distal pancreatectomy for primary RPS are not. This study aimed to evaluate morbidity and oncologic outcomes after distal pancreatectomy for primary RPS. METHODS: In this study, 26 sarcoma centers that are members of the Trans-Atlantic Australasian Retroperitoneal Sarcoma Working Group (TARPSWG) retrospectively identified consecutive patients who underwent distal pancreatectomy for primary RPS from 2008 to 2017. The outcomes measured were 90-day severe complications (Clavien-Dindo ≥ 3), postoperative pancreatic fistula (POPF) rate, and oncologic outcomes. RESULTS: Between 2008 and 2017, 280 patients underwent distal pancreatectomy for primary RPS. The median tumor size was 25 cm, and the median number of organs resected, including the pancreas, was three. In 96% of the operations, R0/R1 resection was achieved. The 90-day severe complication rate was 40 %. The grades B and C POPF complication rates were respectively 19% and 5% and not associated with worse overall survival. Administration of preoperative radiation and factors to mitigate POPF did not have an impact on the risk for the development of a POPF. The RPS invaded the pancreas in 38% of the patients, and local recurrence was doubled for the patients who had a microscopic, positive pancreas margin (hazard ratio, 2.0; p = 0.042). CONCLUSION: Distal pancreatectomy for primary RPS has acceptable morbidity and oncologic outcomes and is a reasonable approach to facilitate complete tumor resection.

RESUMO

INTRODUCTION: Implementation of fast-track perioperative care pathways for gastric cancer patients in the U.S. has been challenging due to low disease incidence and limited safety and efficacy data. Our institution recently implemented such a pathway for gastric cancer patients undergoing gastrectomy, and we sought to study its effects. METHODS: We analyzed data from consecutive patients who underwent gastrectomy for gastric adenocarcinoma from January 2014 to August 2020. Patients who had surgery for recurrence, urgent surgery for obstruction, bleeding, or perforation, or an intrathoracic anastomosis were excluded. The primary predictor was whether the patient had surgery before or after implementation of a perioperative fast-track gastrectomy pathway in July 2018, and the primary outcome was length of stay. RESULTS: One hundred sixty patients were identified, 109 pre-pathway implementation and 51 post-pathway implementation. Following pathway implementation, length of stay was significantly shorter (median 6 days versus 9 days, p < 0.001), and there was no significant difference in 30-day complication rates (29% pre versus 24% post, P = 0.56) or readmission rates (18% pre versus 16% post, P = 0.85). Using linear segmented regression analysis adjusting for age, body mass index, tumor stage (early versus late), type of surgery (distal/subtotal versus total gastrectomy), and approach (open versus minimally invasive), pathway implementation was found to be associated with a 31% decreased length of stay (effect size 0.69, 95% confidence interval 0.49 - 0.98, P = 0.04). CONCLUSIONS: Fast-track gastrectomy care pathways are safe and feasible for U.S. gastric cancer patients undergoing gastrectomy and are associated with decreased length of stay.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: The postoperative mortality rate of pancreaticoduodenectomy is decreasing over time. It is unknown whether this is related to reduction in incidence of major morbidity or failure to rescue. We aimed to make this determination. METHODS: ACS-NSQIP was retrospectively reviewed from 2006 to 2016. Comparisons were assessed with Spearman's rank-order correlation test, chi-square test with linear-by-linear association, and multivariable hierarchical logistic regression. RESULTS: Mortality decreased significantly from 2.9% to 1.5% (p < 0.001). This decrease was independent of preoperative variables on multivariable analysis (odds ratio [OR] 2.55, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.55-5.21, p < 0.001). In contrast, no change in incidence of major morbidity was seen on univariable (26.8% to 25.9%, p = 1.00) or multivariable analysis (OR 1.22, 95% CI 1.03-1.45, p = 0.060). Failure to rescue was observed to decrease on univariable (9.8% to 4.1%, p < 0.001) and multivariable analysis (OR 3.65, 95% CI 2.07-6.76, p < 0.001). CONCLUSION: There has been a sizeable reduction in the mortality rate after pancreaticoduodenectomy from 2006 to 2016. This predominantly results from a reduction in failure to rescue rate rather than a decrease in incidence of major morbidity.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Solitary fibrous tumor (SFT) is a rare mesenchymal malignancy. Although surgery is potentially curative, the local relapse risk is high after marginal resections. Given the lack of prospective clinical trial data, the objective of the current study was to better define the role of perioperative radiotherapy (RT) in various SFT presentations by location. METHODS: This was retrospective study performed across 7 sarcoma centers. Clinical information was retrieved from all adult patients with extrameningeal, primary, localized SFT who were treated between 1990 and 2018 with surgery alone (S) compared with those who also received perioperative RT (S+RT). Differences in treatment characteristics between subgroups were tested using analysis of variance statistics and propensity score matching. Local control and overall survival rates were calculated from the start of treatment until progression or death from any cause. RESULTS: Of all 549 patients, 428 (78%) underwent S, and 121 (22%) underwent S+RT. The median follow-up was 52 months. After correction for mitotic count and surgical margins, S+RT was significantly associated with a lower risk of local progression (hazard ratio, 0.19: P = .029), an observation further confirmed by propensity score matching (P = .012); however, this association did not translate into an overall survival benefit. CONCLUSIONS: The results from this retrospective study investigating perioperative RT in patients with primary extrameningeal SFT suggest that combining RT with surgery in the management of this patient population is significantly associated with a reduced risk of local failures, especially in patients who have less favorable resection margins and in those who have tumors with a high mitotic count.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: In this series from the Transatlantic Australasian Retroperitoneal Sarcoma Working Group (TARPSWG), the authors examined longitudinal outcomes of patients with a second recurrence of retroperitoneal sarcoma (RPS) after complete resection of a first local recurrence (LR). METHODS: Data from patients undergoing resection of a first LR from January 2002 to December 2011were collected from 22 sarcoma centers. The primary outcome was overall survival (OS) after second recurrence. RESULTS: Second recurrences occurred in 400 of 567 patients (70.5%) after an R0/R1 resection of a first locally recurrent RPS. Patterns of disease recurrence were LR in 323 patients (80.75%), distant metastases (DM) in 55 patients (13.75%), and both LR and DM in 22 patients (5.5%). The main subtype among the LR group was liposarcoma (77%), whereas DM mainly were leiomyosarcomas (43.6%). In patients with a second LR only, a total of 200 patients underwent re-resection (61.9%). The 5-year OS rate varied significantly based on the pattern of failure (P < .001): 45.6% for the LR group, 25.5% for the DM group, and 0% for the group with LR and DM. The only factors found to be associated with improved OS on multivariable analysis were both time between second surgery and the development of the second recurrence (32 months vs 8 months: hazard ratio, 0.44 [P < .001]) and surgery for second recurrence (yes vs no: hazard ratio, 3.25 [P < .001]). The 5-year OS rate for patients undergoing surgery for a second LR was 59% versus 18% in the patients not deemed suitable for surgical resection. CONCLUSIONS: Survival rates after second recurrence of RPS varied based on patterns of disease recurrence and treatment. Durable disease-free survivors were identified after surgery for second LR in patients selected for this intervention.
