Abstrakt: Background: In the setting of multidisciplinary standardized care of locally advanced rectal cancer, preoperative chemoradiotherapy and total mesorectal excision have become the mainstay treatment.
Objective: This study aimed to evaluate whether the lack of preoperative chemoradiotherapy or poor response to it is associated with higher radial margin disease involvement in patients with locally advanced rectal cancer.
Design: This is a retrospective cohort study using a publicly available database.
Setting: Data were collected from the proctectomy-targeted National Surgical Quality Improvement Project file from 2016 to 2017.
Patients: A total of 1161 patients were analyzed. They were categorized into 3 groups: patients who did not receive any preoperative chemoradiotherapy (28.6%), patients who received and responded to preoperative chemoradiotherapy (41.2%), and patients who received but did not respond to preoperative chemoradiotherapy (30.2%).
Main Outcome Measures: Response to treatment was determined by using the American Joint Committee on Cancer pretreatment and final pathological staging. Circumferential radial margin was extracted from the targeted proctectomy file.
Results: Disease-involved positive circumferential radial margin was found in 86 (7.4%) cases. Positive radial margin was noted in 11 of 479 patients (2.3%) who underwent preoperative chemoradiotherapy and responded to treatment, 30 of 350 patients (8.6%) who did not respond or had a poor response to preoperative chemoradiotherapy, and 45 of 332 patients (13.6%) who did not receive preoperative chemoradiotherapy (p < 0.001). Regression analysis demonstrated that patients who do not receive preoperative chemoradiotherapy or have poor response to it have 6.6 and 4 times higher chances of having a positive radial margin.
Limitations: There is a risk of selection bias, unidentified confounders, and missing data despite the use of a nationwide cohort.
Conclusions: Omission of indicated preoperative chemoradiotherapy or poor response to it is associated with increased risk of radial margin positivity. More efforts are needed for standardized rectal cancer care with the appropriate use of preoperative chemoradiotherapy. See Video Abstract at http://links.lww.com/DCR/B467.
La Omisin O La Escasa Respuesta a Quimioradioterapia Preoperatoria, Afecta Las Tasas De Positividad Del Margen Radial, En El Cncer Rectal Localmente Avanzado: ANTECEDENTES:En el contexto de la atención multidisciplinaria estandarizada del cáncer rectal localmente avanzado, la quimioradioterapia preoperatoria y la escisión mesorrectal total, se han convertido en el tratamiento principal.OBJETIVO:Evaluar si la omisión de quimioradioterapia preoperatoria o la escasa respuesta, se asocia con mayor enfermedad del margen radial, en pacientes con cáncer rectal localmente avanzado.DISEÑO:Estudio de cohorte retrospectivo utilizando una base de datos disponible públicamente.AJUSTE:Se recopilaron datos del archivo del Proyecto Nacional de Mejora de la Calidad Quirúrgica dirigido a la proctectomía de 2016-2017.PACIENTES:Se analizaron un total de 1161 pacientes. Clasificados en tres grupos: pacientes que no recibieron quimioradioterapia preoperatoria (28,6%), pacientes que recibieron y respondieron a quimioradioterapia preoperatoria (41,2%) y pacientes que recibieron pero no respondieron a la quimioradioterapia preoperatoria (30,2%).PRINCIPALES MEDIDAS DE RESULTADO:La respuesta al tratamiento se determinó utilizando el pre tratamiento y la estatificación patológica final, del American Joint Committee on Cancer. El margen radial circunferencial se extrajo del archivo de proctectomía dirigida.RESULTADOS:Se encontró enfermedad que abarcaba el margen radial circunferencial +, en el 86 (7,4%) casos. Se observó el margen radial +, en 11 de 479 pacientes (2,3%) que se sometieron a quimioradioterapia preoperatoria y respondieron al tratamiento, 30 de 350 pacientes (8,6%) que no respondieron o tuvieron una mala respuesta con quimioradioterapia preoperatoria y en 45 de 332 pacientes (13,6%) que no recibieron quimioradioterapia preoperatoria (p <0,001). El análisis de regresión demostró que los pacientes que no reciben quimioradioterapia preoperatoria o que tienen escasa respuesta, presentan respectivamente, 6,6 y 4 veces más probabilidades de tener un margen radial +.LIMITACIONES:Existe el riesgo de sesgo de selección, factores de confusión no identificados y datos faltantes a pesar del uso de una cohorte nacional.CONCLUSIONES:La omisión de la quimioradioterapia preoperatoria indicada o la escasa respuesta, se asocian a un mayor riesgo de positividad del margen radial. Se necesitan mayores esfuerzos en la atención estandarizada del cáncer rectal, con el uso adecuado de quimioradioterapia preoperatoria. Consulte Video Resumen en http://links.lww.com/DCR/B467.
