Abstract:
Objective To analyze the clinical results and prognostic factors of patients with early-stage primary gastric mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue(MALT) lymphoma. Methods Seventy-seven pa-tients with primary gastric MALT lymphoma treated from 1985 to 2006 were retrospectively analyzed. All pa-tients were pathologically confirmed as MALT lymphoma in stage Ⅰ ,Ⅱ and ⅡE (by modified Blackedge staging system). Thirty-seven patients had stage Ⅰ disease,23 stage Ⅱ and 17 stage ⅡE. Sixty patients un-derwent surgical resection and 17 received non-surgical treatment. Survival rates were calculated by the Kap-lan-Meier analysis with the Logrank test. Results With a median follow up of 57 months for the surviving patients(ranging from 1 to 198 months for all patients), the 5-year overall survival rate, disease-free survival rate,loco-regional control rate and distant metastasis free survival rate were 74% ,70% ,76% and 87% ,re-spectively. In univariate analysis, clinical stage was significantly associated with overall survival. Patients with stage Ⅰ or Ⅱ disease had a better overall survival than those with stage ⅡE (P = 0.01). Tumor size and surgical resection were significantly associated with disease-free survival. Patients with primary tumor 8 cm or less in diameter had better disease-free survival than those with primary tumor more than 8 cm in diameter(P =0.03). Patients who underwent complete resection had better disease-free survival than those who under-went incomplete resection or no surgery (P =0.02). Clinical stage, tumor size and surgical resection were significantly associated with loco-regional control. Patients with stage Ⅰ or Ⅱ disease had better loco-regional control than those with stage ⅡE (P = 0. 03). Patients with primary tumor 8 cm or less in diameter had better loco-regional control than those with primary tumor more than 8 cm in diameter(P =0.01). Patients who un-derwent complete resection had better loco-regional control than those who underwent incomplete resection or no surgery(P=0.03). Patients with stage Ⅰ and Ⅱ disease treated with surgery had more local recurrence, and patients treated without surgery tended to recur systematically. Patients with stage ⅡE disease tended to recur locally in spite of surgery or not. Conclusions The efficacy of surgical and non-surgical treatment for primary gastric MALT lymphoma are similar. Surgical resection is no longer a necessary approach in the primary treatment. Clinical stage is an important prognostic factor for primary gastric MALT lymphoma.
