目的探讨Ⅱ期结直肠癌根治术淋巴结检出数目与患者预后的关系。方法回顾性分析380例Ⅱ期结直肠癌患者的临床资料。结果本组术后5年内出现复发或转移的56例患者与无复发转移者平均淋巴结检出数分别为9.5枚/例和16.3枚/例(P〈0.01).术后5年内死亡的97例患者与健在者平均淋巴结检出数分别为11.1枚/例和16.7枚/例(P〈0.01).差异均有统计学意义。淋巴结检出大于或等于12枚/例组和小于12枚/例组的5年生存率分别为83.9%和62.0%(P〈O.01),复发转移率分别为6.4%和25.7%(P〈0.01),差异也均有统计学意义。单因素分析显示,Ⅱ期结直肠癌患者的预后与淋巴结检出数目有关(P〈0.05)。结论淋巴结检出数目多少影响Ⅱ期结直肠癌患者的预后.淋巴结检出数目多者复发转移率低.生存率较高。
Objective To investigate the association between the number of retrieved lymph nodes and the prognosis of stage Ⅱ colorectal cancer. Methods Clinical data of 380 patients with stage Ⅱ coloreetal cancer were analyzed retrospectively. SPSS 13.0 was used for data processing. Survival rate was calculated by Kaplan-Meier method, and risk factors related to prognosis of stage Ⅱ colorectal cancer were analyzed by Logistic regression analysis. Recurrence rate and survival rate were assessed with Chi-squared test. Results The average number of lymph nodes retrieved from 56 patients who developed recurrence or metastasis in 5 year after surgery was 9.5, and 16.3 from patients who had no recurrence or no metastasis (P〈0.01). The number retrieved from 97 patients who died in 5 years after surgery was 11.1, and 16.7 from survivors. Patients were divided into 2 groups: ≥ 12 group and 〈 12 group. The 5-year survival rate was 83.9% in 1〉 12 group and 62.0% in 〈 12 group, respectively (P〈0.01), the recurrence rate was 6.4% in ≥12 group and 25.7% in 〈 12 group (P〈0.01). The univariable analysis showed that the number of retrieved lymph nodes was significantly associated with the survival and recurrence in patients with stage Ⅱ colorectal cancer (P〈0.05). Conclusions The number of retrieved lymph nodes is associated with the prognosis of stage Ⅱ colorectal cancer. Patients with more retrieved lymph nodes have a higher survival rate.
