MUNOZ-OROZCO, Henry; MEZA, Julián A. y MERCHAN-GALVIS, Ángela. Two-year survival in patients with locally advanced gastric cancer at an institution in Popayán between 2018 and 2020. rev. colomb. cir. [online]. 2023, vol.38, n.3, pp.468-473. Epub 06-Mar-2023. ISSN 2011-7582. https://doi.org/10.30944/20117582.2282.
Introduction.
Perioperative cancer treatment in patients with locally advanced gastric cancer is indicated; even so, it is not always possible. The objective was to evaluate survival according to time and receipt of perioperative chemotherapy.
Methods.
Observational study, ambispective cohort type, including patients with locally advanced gastric cancer who received or did not receive perioperative chemotherapy.
Results.
Thirty-three patients were included, 90.9% belonged to the subsidized regimen and 78.8% with TNM T4. The perioperative chemotherapy group, which only had five patients (15.1%), had a higher overall survival at 2 years (100%), followed by the postoperative chemotherapy group and by the group without chemotherapy, with an overall survival at 2 years of 58.8% and 54.5%, respectively.
Discussion.
Overall survival was higher in the perioperative chemotherapy group, consistent with what has been described internationally, although the patients were in a more advanced stage, most being with T4 and N+ according to the AJCC VIII edition.
Conclusions.
The clinical stage is an important prognostic factor and in our environment, most patients consult in more advanced stages, coupled with difficulties in accessing health care. Even so, perioperative chemotherapy showed a longer survival in patients with locally advanced gastric cancer, the data should not be extrapolated since the number of patients in each group is significantly different.
