Pulmonary metastasectomy is associated with survival after lung-only recurrence in pancreatic cancer
Surgery(2023)
摘要
Background: After surgical resection of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma, 14% of patients have lung-only recurrence. We hypothesize that in patients with isolated lung metastases from pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma, pulmonary metastasectomy offers a survival benefit with minimal additional morbidity after resection. Methods: This was a single-institution, retrospective study of patients who underwent definitive resection of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma and later developed isolated lung metastases between 2009 and 2021. Patients were included if they carried a diagnosis of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma, underwent pancreatic resection with curative intent, and subsequently developed lung metastases. Patients were excluded if they developed multiple sites of recurrence. Results: We identified 39 patients with pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma and isolated lung metastases, 14 of whom underwent pulmonary metastasectomy. During the study period, 31 (79%) patients died. Across all patients, there was an overall survival of 45.9 months, a disease-free interval of 22.8 months, and survival after recurrence of 22.5 months. Survival after recurrence was significantly longer in patients who underwent pulmonary metastasectomy than those who did not (30.8 months vs 18.6 months, P <.01). There was no difference in overall survival between groups. However, patients who underwent pulmonary metastasectomy were significantly more likely to be alive 3 years after their diagnosis (100.0% vs 64%, P = .02) and 2 years after recurrence (79% vs 32%, P <.01) than those in who did not undergo pulmonary metastasectomy. No mortalities occurred related to pulmonary metastasectomy, and procedure-related morbidity was 7%. Conclusion: Patients who underwent pulmonary metastasectomy for isolated pulmonary pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma metastases had significantly longer survival after recurrence and clinically meaningful survival benefit with minimal additional morbidity after pulmonary resection.
