Abstract:
Objective To investigate the clinicopathological features of multiple primary colorectal carcinoma. Methods The clinical data of 30 patients with multiple primary colorectal carcinoma and 580 patients with single colorectal carcinoma who were admitted to the Peking University People's Hospital from January 2001 to March 2008 were retrospectively analyzed. There were 16 patients with multiple synchronous carcinoma and 14with multiple metachronous carcinoma. The survival of the patients was analyzed using Kaplan-Meier method and the survival rates were compared using Log-rank test. All data were analyzed using the chi-square test. Results The onset age of multiple metachronous primary carcinoma was younger than that of multiple synchronous carcinoma and single colorectal carcinoma, while the onset age of multiple metachronous secondary carcinoma was close to that of multiple synchronous carcinoma and single colorectal carcinoma. Most of the synchronous carcinoma located at the left colon; while most of the metachronous primary carcinoma located at the rectum and sigmoid colon, and most of the metachronous secondary carcinoma located at the ascending colon. Patients with multiple synchronous carcinoma or multiple metachronous primary carcinoma received radical resection. Of the 14 patients with multiple metachronous carcinoma, 9 received radical resection for secondary focus. Except for three patients with multiple synchronous carcinoma and two patients with multiple metachronous carcinoma, all patients received postoperative chemotherapy with FCF, FOLFOX or XELOX regimen. Of the 580 patients with single colorectal carcinoma, 512 received radical resection, 68 received palliative operation, and 519 received postoperative chemotherapy. The cumulative survival rate of patients with multiple metachronous primary carcinoma was significantly higher than that of single colorectal carcinoma (x2 = 17. 289, P ＜ 0. 05). There was no significant difference in the cumulative survival rate between patients with single colorectal carcinoma and those with multiple metachronous secondary carcinoma or multiple synchronous carcinoma (x2 = 1.731, 0. 800, P ＞ 0. 05). Conclusion The prognosis of patients with colorectal multiple metachronous carcinoma is better than those with single colorectal carcinoma, and the prognosis of colorectal synchronous carcinoma is similar to those with single colorectal carcinoma.
