乳腺癌结外浸润对不同水平腋窝淋巴结受累患者预后的影响

The Effect of Extracapsular Extension on the Prognosis of Different Pathologically-Positive Axillary Lymph Node Levels in Breast Cancer

  • 摘要: 目的:研究淋巴结阳性浸润性乳腺癌患者,不同腋窝淋巴结受累水平下,淋巴结外浸润(Extracapsular extension,ECE )对患者预后的影响。方法:回顾性分析术后病理证实腋窝淋巴结阳性的原发乳腺癌患者1 230 例,分层研究ECE 在不同腋窝淋巴结受累水平(LN1~3、LN4~9、LN≥10)对总生存率(Overall survival,OS)和无局部/区域复发率(Local-Regional failure free survial ,LRFFS )的影响,并通过Cox 回归分析肿瘤大小、PER 及ECE 等对不同水平腋窝淋巴结受累患者预后的影响。结果:LN1~3 时,ECE 对OS及LRFFS 的影响均无统计学差异(P=0.931;P=0.591)。 LN4~9 时,ECE 对OS及LRFFS 的影响均有统计学差异(P=0.004;P=0.018)。 LN≥10时,ECE 对OS的影响有统计学意义(P=0.019),对LRFFS 的影响无显著性差异(P=0.094)。 Cox 回归分析对总体病例进行分析得出,肿瘤大小、PER 及ECE 均为有统计学意义的独立危险因素(P 均<0.05)。 分层分析得出,LN1~3 时,仅肿瘤大小有统计学意义(P=0.006);LN4~9 时,仅ECE 有统计学意义(P=0.001);LN≥10时,仅肿瘤大小、PER 有统计学意义(P 均<0.05)。 结论:ECE 是腋窝淋巴结阳性乳腺癌独立预后因素,其对不同水平淋巴结受累患者预后影响不同。对LN≥4 的患者,ECE 可作为判断预后的重要因素,尤其对LN4~9 患者,ECE 为预后不良的独立危险因素。ECE 对不同淋巴结受累水平患者的预后影响不同,可作为临床选择不同治疗方案的依据之一。

     

    Abstract: Objective:To evaluate the prognostic value of extracapsular extension (ECE) in different levels of pathologi -cally-positive axillary lymph nodes of breast cancer. Methods:The clinical records of 1,230 breast cancer patients with pathologically-positive lymph nodes treated with surgical therapy were retrospectively reviewed. The influence of ECE in overall survival (OS) and local-regional failure -ree survival (LRFFs) in different levels of pathologically-positive lymph nodes (LN 1~3, LN 4~9, LN ≥10) were investigated. COX regression model was used to analyze the relationship be-tween tumor size, positive-exampled rate (PER), ECE and the prognosis. Results: In the 1~3 positive lymph nodes group, ECE had no significant influence on OS and LRFFS (P=0.9308; P=0.5909). In the 4~9 positive lymph nodes group, ECE had significant influence on OS and LRFFS ( P=0.0036, P=0.0175). In the ≥10positive lymph nodes group, ECE had signif-icant influence on OS ( P=0.0188) but not on LRFFS (P=0.0938). Cox regression analysis revealed a significance for tumor size, PER and ECE for prognosis of the total samples (P≤0.05). In the 1~3 positive lymph nodes group, only tumor size had significant influence (P=0.006 ) ; in the 4~9 positive lymph nodes group, only ECE had significant influence (P = 0.001 ); while in the≥10positive lymph nodes group, tumor size and PER had significant influence (P≤0.05). Conclusion:ECE could be an independent prognostic factor for breast cancer and the prognostic value is different according to thelymph nodes involved. For the patients with ≥4 positive lymph nodes, ECE is of significance in predicting the prognosis. ECE is an independent risk factor of poor prognosis especially for the 4~9 positive lymph nodes group. As the different effect, it might be relevant to take into consideration the presence of ECE in the planning of adjuvant therapeutic modalities.
