Abstract:
Objective To evaluate the clinical significance of a modified T-staging system for hilar cholangiocarcinoma(HCC).Methods From 1999 through 2007,98 HCC patients were stratified by the Tstaging system.Statistical differences were evaluated for resectability,radical resectability,concomitant partial hepatectomy,partial portal vein resection,histological differentiation,lymph node characteristic and survival rate.Results There were 43 HCC patients graded at T1,37 at T2 and 18 at T3 respectively.The resectability rates were 65%,40% and 11%,and radical resection was achieved in 46%,21% and 0% respectively.Resectabilities decreased with increasing T stage(χ~2=15,P<0.01;χ~2=14,P<0.01,separately).In patients with T1 and T2 tumors who underwent resection,the concomitant partial hepatectomy accounted for 60% and 73%(χ~2=0.6,P>0.05),partial portal vein resection for 3% and 33%(χ~2=4,P<0.05),poor differentiated types for 71% and 40%(χ~2=4,P<0.05),and lymph node metastasis for 50% and 40%(χ~2=0.4,P>0.05),respectively.The 1-,3-and 5-year survival rates in patients with T1 lesions were 58%,30%and 18%,in 12 patients it was 43%,11%and 0.The 1-and 2-year survival rate in T3 patients was 12%and 0.Patients witll T1 or T2 stage tumors had a significantly longer survival than those with T3(P<0.05)(Log rank χ~2=14,Breslow χ~2=12,P<0.01;Log rank χ~2=6,Breslow χ~2=4,P<0.05,individually),and the difference in survival between T1 and T2 was not significant(Log rank χ~2=2,Breslow χ~2=1,P>0.05).Conclusions The T-staging system is appropriate for preoperative evaluation in HCC patients.However,its correlation with tumor histological differentiation and lymphatic characteristics needs to be elucidated.
