Abstract:
Objective :To analyze the survival of patients with malignant mesothelioma, so as to provide insights into the management of malignant mesothelioma.
Methods :Totally 36 patients with malignant mesothelioma admitted to Cixi Third People’s Hospital from October 2012 to January 2021 were enrolled, and the demographic features, exposure to asbestos, and diagnosis and treatment were retrospectively reviewed. The survival rate and median survival time were calculated with the life-table method, and the factors affecting the survival rate of malignant mesothelioma were identified using the Kaplan-Meier estimate and log-rank test.
Results :The 36 patients with malignant mesothelioma included 6 men ( 16.67% ) and 30 women ( 83.33% ), and had a median age of 61 ( interquartile range, 14 ) years. There were 30 cases with pleural malignant mesothelioma ( 83.33% ) and 6 cases with peritoneal malignant mesothelioma ( 16.67% ), 32 cases ( 88.89% ) with a history of occupational exposure to asbestos, and 26 cases ( 72.22% ) receiving palliative treatment. The 1-, 2- and 3-year cumulative survival rates were 30%, 15% and 3%, respectively, and the median survival time was 0.71 years. In addition, there were no significant differences in the survival period among patients with malignant mesothelioma in terms of gender, age, route of asbestos exposure, duration of asbestos exposure, pathogenic site and treatment regimens ( P>0.05 ).
Conclusion :The 36 patients with malignant mesothelioma had a median survival period of 0.71 years, and no association was found between the survival period and asbestos exposure or pathogenic site.
