Περιγραφή
Prognostic factors and treatment results were analysed in 28 consecutive patients with primary gastric lymphoma (PGL) diagnosed and treated, all by surgery and in many cases with additional chemotherapy (CT) and/or radiotherapy (RT), between 1977 and 1988. There were 13 patients in stage IE, 5 in IIE, and 10 in stage IV. The resection rate was 96.4% (27/28). Sixteen patients underwent an extended total and 11 a subtotal gastrectomy. Seventeen out of 25 cases (68%) were diagnosed by endoscopic biopsies. In 10 endoscopically diagnosed PGL cases the clinical staging and separation between stages IE and IIE from stage IV, due to ultrasonographic scan, computed tomography and bone marrow biopsy, was correct and the same with the surgical-pathological staging information. According to the Kiel-classification 18 patients had a low-grade and 9 patients a high-grade lymphoma. One patient could not be classified. All patients were completely followed-up, in an average time of 52 months. The probability of overall 5-year survival was 92% in stage IE, 75% in stage IIE, 88% in stages IE+IIE together, and 35% in stage IV. Extent of surgery (total vs. subtotal gastrectomy), Kiel-classification (low-grade vs. high-grade malignant histologic subtypes) and adjuvant CT in patients with stage IE (all 11 patients without CT remain in complete remission after an average of 45 months) did not significantly influence survival. The sole prognostic factor with proven impact on survival was the stage of disease (IE+IIE vs. IV: P = 0.001). For the Kiel-classification in particular there was no significant difference between low-grade and high-grade lymphomas with regard to the sex, symptomatic, extent of surgery, and stage at operation. These findings, together with data from the literature, suggest that gastric resection seems to be the optimal primary treatment in clinically assessed stages IE or IIE. In patients with stage IE disease, surgical resection can result in a cure, with no need for further therapy. The CT and/or RT can be effective in unresected and even bulky cases. Because of the difference in primary treatment, a preoperative clinical staging and separation between early stages from stage IV is always indicated.
