Abstract 104P
Background
A growing amount of data has indicated the possibility that tumor location may play a prognostic role in colon cancer. The present study set out to investigate the relation between the location of colon cancer (right side vs. left side) and the patient’s oncologic outcome.
Methods
This retrospective chart review studied 654 colon cancer patients who had been treated and followed up on at three tertiary hospitals between 2010 and 2015. To determine the most important independent factors of oncologic outcomes, the Cox regression multivariate analysis model used to analyze the prognostic impact of the primary tumor location and other clinical-, pathologic-, and treatment-related factors.
Results
In the univariate analysis, the prognostic factors for disease-free survival (DFS) were the primary tumor stage (< 0.001), node stage (<0.001), tumor grade (P = 0.013), surgical margin status (P = 0.001), lymphatic vascular invasion (LVI) (<0.001), and perineural invasion (PNI) (<0.001). Additionally, the prognostic factors for disease-free survival (OS) were the primary tumor stage (<0.001), node stage (<0.001), tumor grade (P = 0.036), presence of LVI (<0.001), presence of PNI (<0.001), and the mucinous type (P = 0.042). However, in the multivariate analysis, the presence of LVI, T3-4 lesions, tumor grade II-III, and an advanced disease stage remained independent prognostic factors for DFS as well as OS. However, the colon cancer location was not prognostic factor in terms of DFS or OS.
Conclusions
Although right-sided colon cancers present more aggressive clinical features, tumor location is not a significant prognostic factor for DFS and OS in colon cancer patients.
