Abstract:
Objective Retrospectively analyzed the predictive value of imaging evaluation in stage Ⅱ/Ⅲ esophageal carcinoma patients treated with preoperative chemoradiotherapy.Methods A total of 145 stage Ⅱ/Ⅲ esophageal carcinoma pantients were enrolled.We analyzed the overall survival rates of the patients with pathological complete response (pCR) and those without (NpCR),X-film complete response (xCR) and those without (NxCR),RECIST complete response (rCR) and those without (NrCR).And we used Cox model for multivariate analysis.Results The rates of pCR,xCR and rCR were 33.8%,42.8% and 38.6% for all patients,respectively.The 1-,3-5-year overall survival rates were 87.8%,79.6%,61.2% for pCR patients and 75%,40.6%,24.0% for NpCR patients (x2 =20.215,P <0.05),respectively;The 1-,3-5-year overall survival rates were 80.6%,66.1%,51.6% for xCR patients and 75%,44.6%,25.3% for NxCR patients(x2 =8.895,P <0.05),respectively;The 1-,3-5-year overall survival rates were 83.9%,69.6%,53.6% for rCR patients and 76.4%,46.1%,25.8% for NxCR patients(x2 =10.862,P < 0.05),respectively.Multivariate survival analysis using Cox regression model showed that pCR was a positive independent prognostic factor (HR =0.333,95% CI:0.200-0.554,P < 0.05).Conclusions Short-term imaging evaluation could effectively predict the prognosis of stage Ⅱ/Ⅲ esophageal carcinoma patients treated with preoperative chemoradiotherapy.And pCR was a positive independent prognostic factor.
