Abstract:
Objective To explore the clinicopathological characteristics as prognostic factors in patients with colorectal signet-ring cell carcinoma. Methods Clinical data of 62 patients of colorectal signet-ring cell carcinoma and 281 patients of colorectal low-differentiated adenocarcinoma were retrospectively analyzed. COX Proportional Hazards Model was used in multivariate analysis. Results Colorectal signet-ring cell carcinoma occurred more frequently in young patients and most of them located in the rectum. Gender, preoperative CEA, pathological type and liver metastasis were not statistically different from low-differentiated adenocarcinoma (X2=0.07,0.04,0.06,1.79,P>0.05).Bowel obstruction, operative modalities, tumor embolism, infiltration depth, lymph node metastasis were statistically different from low-differentiated adenocarcinoma (X2=8.96,75.1,18.5,72.0,7.44,P<0.05). Median survival time was 28 months in patients of colorectal signet-ring cell carcinoma and 49 months in patients of colorectal low-differentiated adenocarcinoma. The difference was statistically significant (X2=12.51,P<0.05). Infiltration depth, lymph node metastasis, operative modalities and postoperative adjunctive therapy were independent prognostic factors based on a multivariate analysis of the COX Proportional Hazards Model. Conclusions The biological malignancy of colorectal signet-ring cell carcinoma is higher than that of low-differentiated adenocarcinoma in colorectal carcinoma. Radical resection and postoperative adjunctive therapy were effective treatment methods.
