| 2 | Anemia and long-term outcome in adjuvant and neoadjuvant radiochemotherapy of stage Ⅱ and Ⅲ rectal adenocarcinoma:The Freiburg experience(1989-2002)显示文摘AIM:To evaluate the long-term outcome of standard5-FU based adjuvant or neoadjuvant radiochemotherapyand to identify the predictive factors,especially anemiabefore and after radiotherapy as well as hemoglobinincrease or decrease during radiotherapy.METHODS:Two hundred and eighty-six patientswith Union International Contre Cancer(UICC)stageⅡ and Ⅲ rectal adenocarcinomas,who underwentresection by conventional surgical techniques(lowanterior or abdominoperineal resection),receivedeither postoperative(n=233)or preoperative(n=53)radiochemotherapy from January 1989 until July 2002.Overall survival(OAS),cancer-specific survival(CSS),disease-free survival(DFS),local-relapse-free(LRS)and distant-relapse-free survival(DRS)were evaluatedusing Kaplan-Meier,Log-rank test and Cox's proportionalhazards as statistical methods.Multivariate analysis wasused to identify prognostic factors.Median follow-uptime was 8 years.RESULTS:Anemia before radiochemotherapy was anindependent prognostic factor for improved DFS(riskratio 0.76,P=0.04)as well as stage,grading,R status(free radial margins),type of surgery,carcinoembryonicantigen(CEA)levels,and gender.The univariate analysisrevealed that anemia was associated with impaired LRS (better local control)but with improved DFS.In contrast,hemoglobin decrease during radiotherapy was anindependent risk factor for DFS(risk ratio 1.97,P=0.04).During radiotherapy,only 30.8% of RO-resected patientssuffered from hemoglobin decrease compared to 55.6%if R1/2 resection was performed(P=0.04).The 5-yearOAS,CSS,DFS,LRS and DRS were 47.0%,60.0%,41.4%,67.2%,and 84.3%,respectively.Significantdifferences between preoperative and postoperativeradiochemotherapy were not found.CONCLUSION:Anemia before radiochemotherapyand hemoglobin decrease during radiotherapy have nopredictive value for the outcome of rectal cancer.Stage,grading,R status(free radial margins),type of surgery,CEA levels,and gender have predictive value for theoutcome of rectal cancer. | Christian Weissenberger Geissler Michael Otto Florian Barke Annette Henne Karl von Plehn Georg Rein Alex Müller Christine Bartelt Susanne Henke Michael | 2006 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2006，12，12： | 4 |
