Abstract:
Objective:To evaluate the prognostic value of albumin-bilirubin(ALBI)score in patients with distal cholangiocarcinoma(dCCA)after radical surgery.Methods:This retrospective study analyzed clinical data from 156 patients diagnosed with distal cholangiocarcinoma who underwent surgical treatment at the Department of Hepatobiliary Surgery,Beijing Chaoyang Hospital,affiliated with Capital Medical University,between January 2014 and December 2022.All patients gave informed consent and medical ethics guidelines were followed.The Albumin-Bilirubin(ALBI)score was calculated based on preoperative serum albumin and total bilirubin levels.Patients were then stratified into low ALBI and high ALBI groups using the optimal cut-off value.The study aimed to assess and compare the long-term prognosis of patients in these groups and to identify risk factors that influence their long-term prognosis using univariate and multivariate analyses.Results:Using the optimal ALBI cut-off value,patients were stratified into a low ALBI group(ALBI≤-1.67,92 cases)and a high ALBI group(ALBI>-1.67,64 cases).The median survival time for patients in the low ALBI group was 33 months,while the median survival time for patients in the high ALBI group was 20 months.The overall survival rates at 1 year,3 years,and 5 years postoperatively were 85.4%,43.8%,and 35.8%for the low ALBI group,and 65.5%,23.4%,and 13.6%for the high ALBI group,respectively(χ2=8.882,P=0.003).Results from both univariate and multivariate analyses indicated that high ALBI,CA19-9>37U/ml and lymph node metastasis were independent risk factors of long-term postoperative survival.Conclusion:In patients with distal cholangiocarcinoma,the preoperative ALBI score may be an effective indicator for predicting long-term survival.
