摘要
Background: There is limited information regarding the immunohistochemistry stain and its prognostic role in adrenocortical carcinoma (ACC), and few studies focus on Asian patients. Our study aims to identify the correlation between immunohistochemistry staining and the prognosis of ACC in Asian patients. Methods: We searched the database of a single center in Taiwan for cases with a pathological diagnosis of ACC in the past 25 years. We collected patient data on age, sex, initial presentation, staging, metastatic site, and survival duration. Immunohistochemical studies using antibodies to CDK4, ATRX, beta-catenin, Ki-67, SSTR2, and p53 were performed. Survival analysis was performed using the log-rank test, the Cox proportional hazards model and bootstrapping with 5000 samplings. Results: Fourteen patients were identified, and the median age was 49.5 (range 1–70) years. There were eight male and six female patients. Four patients presented with Cushing’s syndrome, and half were diagnosed with stage IV ACC at presentation. Only three patients survived (21%). The median survival time was 15.5 (range 0.67–244) months. SSTR2 expression score > 50 (log-rank test: p = 0.009) and Ki-67 > 50% (log-rank test: p = 0.017) were associated with mortality. However, after adjusting for stage, the bootstrapping analysis demonstrated that Ki-67 [B 2.04, p = 0.004], Beta-catenin [B 2.19, p = 0.009], ATRX [B 1.48, p = 0.026], P53 [B 1.58, p = 0.027], SSTR2 [B 1.58, p = 0.015] and SSTR2 expression score [B 0.03, p < 0.001] were all significantly associated with mortality. Conclusions: After adjusting for stage, Ki-67 > 50%, Beta-catenin, ATRX, P53, SSTR2 and SSTR2 expression score > 50 were associated with mortality in Asian patients with ACC.
