Primary small bowel non-Hodgkin's lymphoma is a rare disease representing 2% of small intestine malignancies. There is limited data delineating the optimal treatment for these heterogeneous tumors. We aim to examine relationships between different treatment modalities and surgical outcomes in patients with small bowel lymphoma.Patients diagnosed with stage I-III small bowel lymphoma in 2004-2015 who underwent surgery were identified in the National Cancer Database. Two cohorts were created based on systemic chemotherapy treatment status. The primary outcome was overall survival. An adjusted Cox proportional hazards model was used to evaluate the impact of treatment strategy on survival.2283 patients met inclusion criteria Of these patients, 826 patients (36%) underwent surgical resection alone, and 1457 patients (64%) underwent resection with systemic chemotherapy. Chemotherapy was associated with improved overall survival in unadjusted (5-year overall survival, 55% versus 70%) and adjusted analysis (HR 0.54, 95% CI 0.47-0.63, p 0.001).Patients with small bowel lymphoma have a low five-year overall survival after surgery. Chemotherapy is associated with improved survival, although one third of patients do not receive this therapy. Several other clinical factors are identified that are also associated with overall survival, including histology subtype, margin status, age, and medical comorbidities. This information can help with prognostication and potentially aid in treatment decision-making. |
