Abstract:
Objective:To explore the differences in clinical and imaging features between pancreatic adenosquamous carcinoma (PASC) and pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC).Methods:The clinical data, imaging and pathological data of 171 patients pathologically diagnosed with PASC after surgical resection (PASC group) (from February 2011 to October 2020, 148 patients from the First Affiliated Hospital of Naval Medical University and 23 patients from the Second Affiliated Hospital of Zhejiang University School of Medicine) and 100 patients pathologically diagnosed with PDAC after surgical resection (PDAC group) (from January to June, 2018, at the First Affiliated Hospital of Naval Medical University) were retrospectively analyzed. Computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging features were analyzed by two associate chief physician of department of radiology. Independent sample t test, rank sum test, chi-square test or Fisher exact probability test were used for statistical analysis. Multivariate logistic regression analysis was used to analyze independent predictors of PASC. Results:The longest diameter of tumor of PASC group was larger than that of PDAC group (35.0 mm (28.0 mm to 45.0 mm) vs. 29.5 mm (23.0 mm to 36.0 mm)), and the rates of cystic necrosis, ring-enhancement, normal distal main pancreatic duct and normal pancreatic parenchyma of PASC group were higher than those of PDAC group (62.0%, 106/171 vs. 12.0%, 12/100; 66.1%, 113/171 vs. 25.0%, 25/100; 52.0%, 89/171 vs. 12.0%, 12/100; 70.2%, 120/171 vs. 29.0%, 29/100, respectively); and the differences were statistically significant ( Z=-4.001, χ2=72.183, 42.612, 43.284 and 43.221, all P<0.01). The results of multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that the cystic necrosis, ring-enhancement, normal distal main pancreatic duct and normal pancreatic parenchyma were indenpendent predictors of PASC (odds ratio=10.083, 2.361, 3.086 and 2.632, 95% confidence interval 8.736 to 11.639, 2.096 to 2.660, 2.605 to 3.656 and 2.267 to 3.057, all P<0.01); and the sensitivity for PASC diagnosis was 62.0%, 66.1%, 51.7% and 70.3%, respectively; the specificity was 88.0%, 75.0%, 88.0% and 71.0%, respectively; the positive predictive value was 89.3%, 81.9%, 88.1% and 80.5%, respectively. Conclusions:PASC and PDAC have similar clinical features. The imaging features of cystic necrosis, ring-enhancement, normal distal main pancreatic duct and normal pancreatic parenchyma are independent predictive factors of PASC.
