National cohort study on postoperative risks after surgery for submucosal invasive colorectal cancer.

ABSTRACT: Background:The decision to perform surgery for patients with T1 colorectal cancer hinges on the estimated risk of lymph node metastasis, residual tumour and risks of surgery. The aim of this observational study was to compare surgical outcomes for T1 colorectal cancer with those for more advanced colorectal cancer. Methods:This was a population-based cohort study of patients treated surgically for pT1-3 colorectal cancer between 2009 and 2016, using data from the Dutch ColoRectal Audit. Postoperative complications (overall, surgical, severe complications and mortality) were compared using multivariable logistic regression. A risk stratification table was developed based on factors independently associated with severe complications (reintervention and/or mortality) after elective surgery. Results:Of 39 813 patients, 5170 had pT1 colorectal cancer. No statistically significant differences were observed between patients with pT1 and pT2-3 disease in the rate of severe complications (8·3 versus 9·5 per cent respectively; odds ratio (OR) 0·89, 95 per cent c.i. 0·80 to 1·01, P = 0·061), surgical complications (12·6 versus 13·5 per cent; OR 0·93, 0·84 to 1·02, P = 0·119) or mortality (1·7 versus 2·5 per cent; OR 0·94, 0·74 to 1·19, P = 0·604). Male sex, higher ASA grade, previous abdominal surgery, open approach and type of procedure were associated with a higher severe complication rate in patients with pT1 colorectal cancer. Conclusion:Elective bowel resection was associated with similar morbidity and mortality rates in patients with pT1 and those with pT2-3 colorectal carcinoma.

Project description:BackgroundAccumulating evidence suggests a critical role of intestinal dysbacteriosis in surgical site infections and anastomotic leakage after abdominal surgery. However, a direct correlation between pre-existing dysbacteriosis and postoperative infectious complications has not yet been established clinically.MethodsA total of 353 consecutive patients who underwent colorectal cancer (CRC) surgery were enrolled. Gram-stained faecal smears were tested at admission and the first defecation after surgery. Intestinal dysbacteriosis was graded into three groups: normal or slightly decreased intestinal microflora (grade 1), moderate dysbacteriosis (grade 2), and severe dysbacteriosis (grade 3). Clinical outcomes were postoperative infections and anastomotic leakage within 30 days after surgery.ResultsAt the preoperative assessment, 268 (75.9%) patients had normal or slightly decreased intestinal microflora, 58 (16.4%) patients had moderate dysbacteriosis, and 27 (7.6%) patients had severe dysbacteriosis. The patients with preoperative dysbacteriosis had a higher rate of early postoperative diarrhoea (grade 2: OR = 4.53, 95% CI 2.28-9.00, grade 3: OR = 4.52, 95% CI 1.81-11.31), total complications (grade 3 40.7% vs. grade 2 25.9% vs. grade 1 12.7%, P < 0.001), and anastomotic leakage (grade 3 11.1% vs. grade 2 5.2% vs. grade 1 1.5%, P = 0.002). An interaction effect among preoperative dysbacteriosis and early postoperative diarrhoea on total complications was observed in rectal cancer patients (P for interaction = 0.007).ConclusionsAn imbalance of the intestinal microbiome exists in a considerable proportion of CRC patients before surgery. Preoperative dysbacteriosis is associated with higher rates of early postoperative diarrhoea, which further correlates with infectious complications and anastomotic leakage. However, the contribution of preoperative dysbacteriosis to the occurrence of anastomotic leakage needs to be clarified in further studies. Trial registration ChiCTR, ChiCTR1800018755.

Project description:AimsRecent studies have shown that the microenvironment can include cancer cells and cancer-associated fibroblasts (CAFs), and that both play important roles in the progression and metastasis of CRC. Here, we aimed to analyse the expression patterns of cancer cell- and CAF-related proteins in submucosal invasive colorectal cancer (SiCRC) and whether such markers are correlated with lymph node metastasis (LNM).Methods and resultsQuantitative analysis was conducted for Ki-67, p53, β-catenin and matrix metalloproteinase-7 (MMP7) to assess cancer cell markers. In addition, we examined CAF markers, including smooth muscle alpha-actin (α-SMA), CD10, podoplanin, fibroblast-specific protein 1 (FSP-1), platelet-derived growth factor receptor (PDGFR)-α, PDGFR-β, adipocyte enhancer-binding protein 1 (AEBP1), fibroblast-associated protein 1 (FAP-1), zinc finger E-box binding homeobox 1 (ZEB1) and TWIST-related protein 1 (TWIST1). In both cases, we conducted digital pathology with Aperio software. We also examined the expression patterns of biomarkers using hierarchical cluster analysis. Two subgroups were established based on the expression patterns of cancer cell- and CAF- related markers, and the associations of these subgroups with clinicopathological variables. In multivariate analysis, subgroup 2, which was characterised by high expression of Ki-67, p53, FAP-1, platelet-derived growth factor receptor (PDGFR)-α, PDGFR-β and TWIST1, was correlated with LNM (P < 0.01). Next, we examined the associations of individual biomarkers with LNM. Multivariate analysis showed that high expression levels of Ki-67 and FAP-1 were significantly associated with LNM (P < 0.05).ConclusionsOur findings showed that expression patterns of cancer cell- and CAF-related proteins may allow for stratification of patients into risk categories for LNM in SiCRC. In addition, Ki-67- and FAP-1-expressing microenvironmental cells might be helpful for identification of correlations with LNM in SiCRC.

Project description:BackgroundBased on previous studies which failed to analyze important confounding variables, the association between preoperative anemia and outcomes of patients who underwent colorectal cancer (CRC) surgery has not been clearly demonstrated. This study aimed to investigate the relationship between preoperative anemia and short-term outcomes in patients with CRC.MethodsData from a retrospective collective database of patients who underwent CRC surgery at our hospital between September 1, 2019 and September 30, 2021 were retrieved and analyzed, and the short-term postoperative outcomes of anemic (hemoglobin < 120 g dL- 1 for female, hemoglobin < 130 g dL- 1 for male) and non-anemic patients were analyzed, using a 1:1 propensity score matching (PSM) analysis.ResultsAfter excluding some cases, the remaining 1894 patients had complete data available for analysis. The incidence of preoperative anemia was 39.8% (754/1894). Before PSM, preoperative anemia patients had a higher risk of major morbidity than non-anemia patients (27.2% vs. 23.1%, odds ratio [OR] 1.245, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.008-1.538, P = 0.042). After PSM was performed in the cohort, 609 patients remained in the anemic and non-anemic groups. The incidence of major morbidity (25.8% vs. 24.0%, OR 1.102, 95% CI 0.849-1.429, P = 0.446) between anemic and non-anemic patients was comparable. No significant difference was found between the anemic and non-anemic groups in postoperative length of stay (8.0 [6.0-12.0] vs. 8.0 [7.0-11.0], P = 0.311). The sensitivity analysis results were in accordance with the primary outcome. Furthermore, we did not ascertain any discernible correlation between the extent of anemia and significant major morbidity.ConclusionsCompared with preoperative non-anemia, anemia status does not seem to be associated with major morbidity in patients with CRC surgery. It is noteworthy that, anemia is insufficient as a solitary risk factor and may be a better marker of poor health resulting from multiple factors.Trial registrationRegistration Authority: Chinese Clinical Trial Registry; Registration number and date: ChiCTR2100049696, 08/08/2021; Principal investigator: Ting Yan; Link to trial registry: http://www.chictr.org.cn/showproj.aspx?proj=131698 ; .
