Abstract:
Objective To evaluate the surgical modalities and prognosis in elderly patients with gastric cancer.Methods Sixty three gastric cancer patients aged ≥≥ 75 years underwent radical surgery,with D0 + D1 resection in 32 cases and D2 resection in 31 cases,in Beijing Hospital from January 2005 to December 2009.Results More lymph nodes were dissected in D2 group than those in D0 + D1 group (27.42 ± 12.75 vs.14.59 ± 12.11,t =-4.095,P < 0.05).There was no significant difference in postoperative complication rate [25.81% (8/31) vs.31.25% (10/32),x2 =0.095,P > 0.05] and perioperative death rate [3.23% (1/31) vs.6.25% (2/32),x2 =0.324,P > 0.05] between two groups.The 5-year survival rate was higher in D2 group than that in D0 ± D1 group (47.3% vs.21.4%,x2 =6.346,P < 0.05).The 5-year survival rate was higher in POSSUM score (PS) < 20 group than that in PS≥20 group (46.3% vs.11.1%,x2 =5.492,P <0.05).In PS≥20 group,postoperative complication rate did not increase after D2 radical resection(1/8 vs.3/10,x2 =0.824,P > 0.05).Univariate analysis showed that PS < 20 was associated with the prognosis of patients (x2 =5.492,P < 0.05).Cox proportional hazards model showed that lymph node metastasis (OR=4.103,95% CI:1.790-9.405,P < 0.05) and D2 radical gastrectomy(OR =0.313,95% CI:0.158-0.620,P < 0.05) were the independent factors associated with the prognosis of patients aged ≥ 75 years with gastric cancer (all P < 0.05).Conclusion Standardized D2 lymph node dissection is beneficial for gastric cancer patients aged ≥75 years.PS < 20,lymph node metastasis and D2 radical gastrectomy are associated with the prognosis of patients.
