What Are the Preoperative Predictors of a Futile Pelvic Exenteration in Rectal Cancers?
European journal of surgical oncology(2023)
摘要
Introduction: Early recurrences and deaths after a morbid procedure like pelvic exenteration are devastating events. The present study aimed at determining the incidence and predictors of futile pelvic exenterations. Methods: Consecutive pelvic exenterations for advanced and recurrent rectal adenocarcinomas operated between January 2013 and January 2021 were included with a minimum of six months follow-up. Futility of exenteration was defined as recurrence or death within six months of operation. Multivariate logistic regression was used to define predictors of futility. Results: Two-hundred eighty-five patients were included and 61 patients (21.4%) had a futile resection. Poorly differentiated (or signet) histology, presence of lateral pelvic nodes, M1 disease, and the need for pelvic bone resections predicted a futile resection. The probability of futility was 10%, 20%, 35-40%, 55-60%, and >75% when none, one, two, three, and all four of the predictors were present. The model was able to correctly predict futility in 70% of the cases suggesting moderate discrimination, and showed good calibration. Conclusions: Futile pelvic exenterations were observed in one -fifth of patients. Four strong predictors of futility were identified. The risk of early failures was additive when combination of these adverse fea-tures was present, and can be used for patient selection and prognostication.(c) 2022 Elsevier Ltd, BASO -The Association for Cancer Surgery, and the European Society of Surgical Oncology.
