Abstract
- To explore the prognostic assessment value of preoperative blood platelet-lymphocyte ratio (PLR) in patients with gastric mixed adenoneuroendocrine carcinoma (gMANEC) treated with radical surgery.Clinical and pathological data of 84 gMANEC patients who underwent radical resection from 2006 to 2016 in Department of Gastric Surgery, Fujian Medical University Union Hospital were analyzed retrospectively. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis was performed to determine the cutoff value of the PLR for predicting prognosis. The Cox proportional hazards regression model was used to identify prognostic factors of gMANEC.All the patients underwent D2 lymph node dissection, including 26 cases of distal subtotal gastrectomy and 58 cases of total gastrectomy. The postoperative pathological TNM stage system(pTNM) demonstrated that the patients of stage I(, II(, and III( were 9(10.7%), 14(16.7%), and 61(72.6%) cases, respectively. The median follow-up time was 40(3 to 96) months. The recurrence rate was 41.7%(35/84). The median time to recurrence was 10 (1 to 40) months, and 82.9%(29/35) patients experienced recurrence within the first 2 years after operation. The median overall survival time was 27(3 to 39) month, and the median recurrence-free survival time was 21 (1 to 96) months. The 1-, 3-, and 5-year overall survival(OS) rates were 87.6%, 56.6%, and 47.4%, respectively, and the 1-, 3-, and 5-year recurrence-free survival (RFS) rates were 70.5%, 50.7%, and 44.9%, respectively. The best cutoff value of the PLR for predicting prognosis was 133 through ROC curve, which categorized all the patients into low PLR group (≤133) comprising 28 patients and high PLR group (133) comprising 56 patients. The tumor recurrence rate was significantly higher in high PLR group (50.0%, 28/56) than that in low PLR group(25.0%, 7/28)(P=0.028). The live metastasis rate was significantly higher in high PLR group(35.7%, 20/56) than that in low PLR group(10.7%, 3/28)(P=0.015). Cox regression analysis showed that only pTNM stage (P=0.003) was independent prognostic factors of OS, while both pTNM stage (P=0.000) and blood PLR (P=0.015) were independent prognostic factors of RFS.gMANEC patients with high preoperative PLR tend to present recurrence and metastasis, especially to present live metastasis, so they should be kept under surveillance more frequently after surgery.
