- Tumor growth pattern as predictor of colorectal liver metastasis recurrence(2014) PINHEIRO, Rafael S.; HERMAN, Paulo; LUPINACCI, Renato M.; LAI, Quirino; MELLO, Evandro S.; COELHO, Fabricio F.; PERINI, Marcos V.; PUGLIESE, Vincenzo; ANDRAUS, Wellington; CECCONELLO, Ivan; D'ALBUQUERQUE, Luiz CarneiroBACKGROUND: Surgical resection is the gold standard therapy for the treatment of colorectal liver metastases (CRM). The aim of this study was to investigate the impact of tumor growth patterns on disease recurrence. METHODS: We enrolled 91 patients who underwent CRM resection. Pathological specimens were prospectively evaluated, with particular attention given to tumor growth patterns (infiltrative vs pushing). RESULTS: Tumor recurrence was observed in 65 patients (71.4%). According to multivariate analysis, 3 or more lesions (P = .05) and the infiltrative tumor margin type (P = .05) were unique independent risk factors for recurrence. Patients with infiltrative margins had a 5-year disease-free survival rate significantly inferior to patients with pushing margins (20.2% vs 40.5%, P = .05). CONCLUSIONS: CRM patients with pushing margins presented superior disease-free survival rates compared with patients with infiltrative margins. Thus, the adoption of the margin pattern can represent a tool for improved selection of patients for adjuvant treatment.
- Prognostic implication of mucinous histology in resected colorectal cancer liver metastases(2014) LUPINACCI, Renato Micelli; MELLO, Evandro Sobroza; COELHO, Fabricio Ferreira; KRUGER, Jaime Arthur Pirolla; PERINI, Marcos Vinicius; PINHEIRO, Rafael S.; FONSECA, Gilton Marques; CECCONELLO, Ivan; HERMAN, PauloBackground. Colorectal mucinous adenocarcinoma (MAC) is a subtype of colorectal adenocarcinoma with prominent mucin production associated with proximal location of tumor, advanced stage at diagnosis, microsatellite instability, and BRAF mutation. The prognostic implication of MAC in colorectal cancer liver metastases (CRCLM) is unknown. The purpose of our study was to determine the frequency and elucidate the prognostic implication of mucinous histology in CRCLM. Methods. The medical records of 118 patients who underwent CRCLM resection between 2000 and 2010 were reviewed. Clinicopathologic variables and outcome parameters were examined. Resected specimens were submitted to routine histologic evaluation. Patients were grouped according to the metastasis mucinous content: >50%, MAC;.<50%, adenocarcinoma with intermediated mucinous component (AIM); and without any mucinous component, non-MAC (NMA). Results. Mean follow-up after resection was 37 months. Tumor recurrence was, observed in 75% of patients. Overall survival and disease-free survival rates after hepatectomy were 61%, 56%, and 26%, 24% at 3 and 5 years, respectively. Tumors with mucinous component (AIM and MAC) were related to proximal location of the primary tumor and were more frequently observed in females. Multivariate analysis revealed that MAC was an independent negative prognostic factor (hazard ratio, 3.13; 95% CI, 1.30-6.68; P = .011) compared with non-MAC (NMA and AIM). Conclusion. MAC has an adverse prognostic impact compared with NMA, which may influence therapeutic strategy raising an important subject for discussion and future investigation.
- Dimensão da margem cirúrgica nas ressecções de metástase hepática de câncer colorretal: impacto na recidiva e sobrevida(2013) HERMAN, Paulo; PINHEIRO, Rafael S.; MELLO, Evandro S.; LAI, Quirino; LUPINACCI, Renato M.; PERINI, Marcos V.; PUGLIESE, Vincenzo; ANDRAUS, Wellington; COELHO, Fabricio F.; CECCONELLO, Ivan; D'ALBUQUERQUE, Luiz C.BACKGROUND: Approximately 50% of the patients with a colorectal tumor develop liver metastasis, for which hepatectomy is the standard care. Several prognostic factors have been discussed, among which is the surgical margin. This is a recurring issue, since no consensus exists as to the minimum required distance between the metastatic nodule and the liver transection line. AIM: To evaluate the surgical margins in liver resections for colorectal metastases and their correlation with local recurrence and survival. METHODS: A retrospective study based on the review of the medical records of 91 patients who underwent resection of liver metastases of colorectal cancer. A histopathological review was performed of all the cases; the smallest surgical margin was verified, and the late outcome of recurrence and survival was evaluated. RESULTS: No statistical difference was found in recurrence rates and overall survival between the patients with negative or positive margins (R0 versus R1); likewise, there was no statistical difference between subcentimeter margins and those greater than 1 cm. The disease-free survival of the patients with microscopically positive margins was significantly worse than that of the patients with negative margins. The uni- and multivariate analyses did not establish the surgical margin (R1, narrow or less than 1 cm) as a risk factor for recurrence. CONCLUSION: The resections of liver metastases with negative margins, independently of the margin width, had no impact on tumor recurrence (intra- or extrahepatic) or patient survival
- Intrahepatic Lymphatic Invasion but not Vascular Invasion is a Major Prognostic Factor after Resection of Colorectal Cancer Liver Metastases(2014) LUPINACCI, Renato Micelli; MELLO, Evandro Sobrosa; PINHEIRO, Rafael S.; MARQUES, Gilton; COELHO, Fabricio Ferreira; KRUGER, Jaime Arthur Pirolla; PERINI, Marcos Vinicius; HERMAN, PauloDespite advances in diagnosis and surgical strategies, up to 70 % of patients will develop recurrence of the disease after resection of colorectal cancer liver metastases (CRCLM). The purpose of our study was to determine the frequency of four different mechanisms of intrahepatic dissemination, and to evaluate the impact of each mechanism on patient outcomes. The medical records of 118 patients who underwent a first resection of CRCLM during the period between 2000 and 2010 were reviewed. Clinicopathologic variables and outcome parameters were examined. Resected specimens were submitted to routine histological evaluation, and immunohistochemical staining with D2-40 (lymphatic vessels), CD34 (blood vessels), CK-7 (biliary epithelium), and CK-20 (CRC cells). The mean follow-up after resection was 38 months. Tumor recurrence was observed in 76 patients, with a median interval of 13 months after resection. Overall survival and disease-free survival (DFS) rates after hepatectomy were 62 and 56 %, and 26 and 24 % at 3 and 5 years, respectively. Intrahepatic microscopic invasion included portal venous in 49 patients, sinusoidal in 43 patients, biliary in 20 patients, and lymphatic in 33 patients. Intra-hepatic lymphatic invasion was the only mechanism of dissemination independently associated with the risk of hepatic recurrence (odds ratio 2.75) and shorter DFS (p = 0.006). Intrahepatic lymphatic invasion is a significant prognostic factor. Other mechanisms of invasion, although frequently observed, are not related to recurrence or survival, suggesting that the lymphatic system is the main route for dissemination of CRCLM. Furthermore, immunohistochemical detection of intrahepatic lymphatic invasion might be of value in clinical practice.
