Abstract:
Objective:To explore the factors influencing lymph node metastasis and prognosis in patients with Siewert type Ⅱ/Ⅲ adenocarcinoma of the esophagogastric junction (AEG).Methods:A retrospective analysis was conducted on clinical data of 239 patients with Siewert Type Ⅱ/Ⅲ adenocarcinoma of the esophagogastric junction who underwent surgical treatment at Beijing Friendship Hospital, Capital Medical University, from July 2013 to December 2022. Among them, there were 204 males and 35 females. The patients′ ages ranged from 27 to 83 years, with a mean age of 63.1 years. Statistical analysis was performed using SPSS 26.0 software, with categorical data presented as n(%) and compared using χ2 tests, corrected χ2 tests, or Fisher′s exact tests. Ordinal data were expressed as frequencies and percentages and compared using rank-sum tests. Multivariate analysis was conducted using Logistic regression, and survival analysis was performed using the Cox regression model. Follow-up was conducted every 6 months, with the last follow-up conducted in November 2023. Results:Multivariate analysis identified infiltration depth ( OR=0.038, 95% CI: 0.011-0.139, P<0.001), tumor deposit ( OR=0.101, 95% CI: 0.011-0.904, P=0.040) and intravascular cancer embolus ( OR=0.234, 95% CI: 0.108-0.507, P<0.001) as independent predictors of LNM. Lymph nodes No. 1, 2, 3, 4, 7, 10, and 11 were more prone to metastasis in the abdominal cavity. Notably, Siewert Ⅲ AEG patients showed a higher metastatic rate in nodes No. 5 and No. 6 compared to Siewert Ⅱ. Mediastinal LNM was predominantly found in nodes No. 110 and No. 111 for Siewert Ⅱ AEG, with rates of 5.45% and 3.64%, respectively. A three-year survival analysis underscored LNM as a significant prognostic factor ( P=0.001). Conclusions:Siewert Ⅱ AEG patients should undergo removal of both celiac and mediastinal lymph nodes, specifically nodes No. 1, 2, 3, 4, 7, 10, 11, 110, and 111. Dissection of nodes No. 5 and No. 6 is not indicated for these patients. In contrast, Siewert Ⅲ AEG patients do not require mediastinal LND, but pyloric lymphadenectomy for nodes No.5 and No.6 is essential. The presence of LNM is associated with poorer long-term prognosis. Perioperative chemotherapy may offer a survival advantage for AEG patients.
