  • Background: Early non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) that abuts adjacent structures requires careful evaluation due to its potential impact on postoperative outcomes and prognosis. We examined stage I NSCLC with invasion into adjacent structures, focusing on the prognostic implications after curative surgical resection. Methods: We retrospectively analyzed the records of 796 patients who underwent curative surgical resection for pathologic stage IA/IB NSCLC (i.e., visceral pleural invasion only) at a single center from 2008 to 2017. Patients were classified based on tumor abutment and then reclassified by the presence of visceral pleural invasion. Clinical characteristics, pathological features, and survival rates were compared. Results: The study included 181 patients with abutting NSCLC (22.7% of all participants) and 615 with non-abutting tumors (77.3%). Those with tumor abutment exhibited higher rates of non-adenocarcinoma (26.5% vs. 9.9%, p<0.01) and visceral/lymphatic/vascular invasion (30.4%/33.1%/12.7% vs. 8.5%/22.4%/5.7%, respectively; p<0.01) compared to those without abutment. Multivariable analysis identified lymphatic invasion and male sex as risk factors for overall survival (OS) and disease-free survival (DFS) in stage I NSCLC measuring 3 cm or smaller. Age, smoking history, vascular invasion, and recurrence emerged as risk factors for OS, whereas the presence of non-pure ground-glass opacity was a risk factor for DFS. Conclusion: NSCLC lesions 3 cm or smaller that abut adjacent structures present higher rates of various risk factors than non-abutting lesions, necessitating evaluation of tumor invasion into adjacent structures and lymph node metastasis. In isolation, however, the presence of tumor abutment without visceral pleural invasion does not constitute a risk factor.

  • Purpose: Although gastric carcinomas occur throughout the world and the incidence is on the decrease, they remain the most common type of carcinoma in Korea. Significant advancements in the diagnostics and the surgical treatment of gastric carcinomas have been achieved during the last three decades. The present retrospective study was undertaken to investigate the chronological changes in the clinical features, including clinicopathological findings, operative treatment, and prognosis of gastric carcinomas. Materials and Methods: A total of 1973 patients with a primary gastric adenocarcinoma who had been treated surgically during the period from 1983 to 1998 at the Department of Surgery, Korea University College of Medicine, were divided into two groups to evaluate chronological changes: 1007 patients had been treated during the period from 1983 to 1992 (early period) and 966 patients during the period from 1993 to 1998 (late period). Chronological changes in age, sex, ratio of early gastric cancer (EGC), and resectability were analyzed in all 1973 cases. For the 1755 resected cases, we also studied the chronological changes in the clinicopathological and treatment factors between the early-period (n=894) and the late-period (n=867) groups. Results: There were significant differences between the two periods with regard to age and ratio of EGC: EGC was more frequent in the late period. Univariate analysis of resected cases showed that gross type, tumor size, depth of invasion, UICC stage, and histological type were statistically significant. The analysis of the treatment factors revealed that total gastrectomies and extended lymphadenectomies were more frequent during the late period. The number of lymph nodes dissected was $26.0\pm12.7$ in the early period and $33.4\pm14.1$ in the late period (p<0.01). The 5-year survival rate in all cases was $51.4\%$ in the early period and $55.9\%$ in the late period. The stage-related survival rates (UICC 4th Ed., 1987) in the early vs. the late periods were $92.9\%\;vs.\;95.5\%$ in stage IA, $82.1\%\;vs.\;91.1\%$ in stage IB, $76.5\%\;vs.\;73.1\%$ in stage II, $46.5\%\;vs.\;52.1\%$ in stage IIIA, $14.5\%\;vs.\;33.6\%$ in stage IIIB, and $2.8\%\;vs.\;8.8\%$ in stage IV. There was a statistically significant difference in survival between stage IIIB and IV. Conclusion: These results suggest that the differences in the clinicopathological findings are related primarily to the increased number of early gastric cancer cases in the late period and that the improved survival noted during the late period for in stage IIIB and IV cancers might be related to extended surgery.

  • 목적: 자궁경부암에서 수술 후 위험인자가 있는 환자에 방사선치료 후 생존율, 국소 제어율과 예후인자를 후향적으로 분석하여 수술 후 방사선치료의 효과를 알고자 한다. 대상 및 방법: 1986년 3월부터 1998년 12월까지 자궁경부암 FIGO 병기 IB-IIB로 자궁적출술 후 방사선치료를 받은 58명을 대상으로 국소 제어율, 5년 무병생존율과 생존율에 미치는 예후인자를 후향적으로 분석하였다. 수술 후 방사선치료의 적응증은 병리학적으로 림프절에 전이된 경우, 암이 수술절제연이나, 자궁주위조직 혹은 자궁체부에 침범하였거나, 림프혈관강에 침범된 경우, 자궁기질의 1/2 이상 깊이 침윤된 경우와 단순 자궁적출술 후 암으로 진단받은 환자로 하였다. 수술 후 방사선치료는 모든 환자에서 골반강에 외부조사를 시행하였으며 5명은 외부조사와 강내조사를 병용하였다. 외부조사는 6 MV x-선을 이용하여 매일 180 cGy를 4문으로 조사하였으며 총 방사선량은 $4400\~5040$ cGy (중앙값: 5040 cGy)이었다. 강내조사는 외부조사 후 2주에 Cs-137를 이용하여 저선량률로 질 표면에서 5 mm 깊이에 $4488\~4932$ cGy (중앙값: 4500 cGy)를 시행하였다. 추적기간은 15개월에서 108개월로 중앙값은 44개월 이었다. 결과: 전체환자의 5년 무병생존율은 $94\%$, 국소 제어율은 $98\%$,이었으며 원격 전이율은 $5\%$이었다. 병기에 따른 5년 무병생존율은 $IB\;97.1\%,\;IIA\;100\%,\;IIB\;68.9\%$(p=0.0145)이었다. 질 절제연에 암의 침범이 없는 경우 5년 무병생존율이 $97.8\%$, 있는 경우 $60\%$, (P=0.0002)이었으며, 자궁주위조직에 암이 침범이 없는 경우의 5년 무병 생존율은 $97.8\%$이었고, 있는 경우는 $33.3\%$이었다(p=0.0001). 다변량 분석에 의하면 자궁주위조직의 침범만이 통계학적으로 의의있는 예후인자이었다. 치료 후 만성합병증은 3명($5\%$,)에서 RTOG grade 2의 방광염, 1명에서 grade 2의 직장염과 1명에서 하지에 림프부종이 나타났다. 결론: 조기 자궁경부암 환자에 단순 자궁적출술을 시행하였거나, 근치적 자궁적출술 후 병리학적으로 재발 위험 인자가 있는 환자에 수술 후 방사선치료를 시행하여 심각한 부작용 없이 비교적 높은 국소 제어율과 생존율을 얻을 수 있었다. 생존율에 영향을 미치는 예후인자는 병리학적으로 암이 자궁주위조직에 침범된 것으로 예후가 불량하였다. 수술 후 방사선치료의 실패원인과 예후인자를 분석한 본 후향적 연구결과를 토대로 앞으로 방사선치료와 항암화학요법을 병용하여 보다 적극적이고 전향적인 연구를 시도하는데 이정표로 이용할 수 있다고 생각한다.

  • 1979년 5월부터 1981년 12월까지 총 524명의 자궁경부암 환자가 근치적 목적하에 방사선 치료를 받았다. 524명의 환자중, 356명이 코발트 선원을 사용한 원격 조정 아프터로딩 고선량률 강내조사 시스템 (Ralstron)으로써 치료받았으며 168명의 환자는 라듐 선원을 사용한 저선량률 강내 조사를 받았다. 외부조사는 골반부 전체에 총 40-50 Gy가 주어졌으며, 이어서 A지점에 10-13번에 걸쳐 30-39 Gy의 강내 조사를 시행하는 치료지침이 사용되었다. 강내조사는 3 Gy씩, 일주일에 세번 주어졌다. 고선량률 강내조사를 받은 군에서의 5년 실제생존률은 IB기 (N=20)가 $77.6{\%}$, II기 (N=182)가 $68.2{\%}$ 그리고 III기 (N=148)가 $50.9{\%}$였다. 저산량률 강내조사군에서의 5년 생존률은 IB기 (N=22)가 $87.5{\%}$, II기 (N=91)가 $66.3{\%}$, 그리고 III기 (N=52)가 $55.4{\%}$였다. 생존률은 병기에 따라서는 통계학적으로 유의한 차이를 보였지만, 두 강내조사군 간에는 유의한 차이가 없었다. 방사선치료후 내장의 후기 합병증은 고선량률 강내조사 군에서 $3.7{\%}$, 저산량률 강내조사군은 $8.4{\%}$에서 관찰되었다. 그러나 외과적 치료가 필요할 만큼 심한 합병증은 없었다. 방광에서 발생한 합병증의 빈도는 고선량률 강내조사군이 $1.4{\%}$, 저선량률 강내조사군은 $2.4{\%}$였다. 고선량률 강내조사의 시술은 외래 환자에 시행하기에 기술적으로 간단하고 쉬우며 마취가 필요없고, 환자가 매우 잘 견딘다. 담당자에 대한 방사선 피폭도 저선량률 강내조사에 비해 사실상 거의 없다. 고선량률 강내조사의 경우 치료시간이 짧기 때문에 주어진 시간내에 더 많은 환자를 치료할 수 있다. 따라서 많은 환자를 치료해야 되는 암센터의 경우, 고선량률 강내조사 시스템이 훨씬 더 권장되어 진다. 그러나 더욱 향상된 결과를 얻기 위하여, 다른 치료 방식으로 광범위한 연구를 통해, 고선량률 강내조사의 적절한 선량-분할조사 계획과 외부조사와 강내조사의 적절한 배합이 이루어져야 할 것이다.

  • Background: A ground-glass nodule (GGN) represents early-stage lung adenocarcinoma. However, there is still no consensus for preoperative staging of GGNs. Therefore, we evaluated the need for the routine use of positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET)/computed tomography (CT) scans and brain magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) during staging. Methods: A retrospective analysis was undertaken in 72 patients with 74 GGNs of less than 3 cm in diameter, which were confirmed via surgery as malignancy, at the Samsung Medical Center between May 2010 and December 2011. Results: The median age of the patients was 59 years. The median GGN diameter was 18 mm. Pure and part-solid GGNs were identified in 35 (47.3%) and 39 (52.7%) cases, respectively. No mediastinal or distant metastasis was observed in these patients. In preoperative staging, all of the 74 GGNs were categorized as stage IA via chest CT scans. Additional PET/CT scans and brain MRIs classified 71 GGNs as stage IA, one as stage IIIA, and two as stage IV. However, surgery and additional diagnostic work-ups for abnormal findings from PET/CT scans classified 70 GGNs as stage IA, three as stage IB, and one as stage IIA. The chest CT scans did not differ from the combined modality of PET/CT scans and brain MRIs for the determination of the overall stage (94.6% vs. 90.5%; kappa value, 0.712). Conclusion: PET/CT scans in combination with brain MRIs have no additional benefit for the staging of patients with GGN lung adenocarcinoma before surgery.

  • Background: Surgical treatment of stage I non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) can be performed either by thoracotomy or by employing video-assisted thoracic surgery (VATS). The aim of this study was to evaluate the feasibility of VATS lobectomy for pathologic stage I NSCLC. Material and Methods: Between December 2003 and December 2007, 529 patients with pathologic stage I NSCLC underwent lobectomies (373 thoracotomy, 156 VATS). Patients in both groups were selected after being matched by age, gender and pathologic stage using propensity score method, to create two comparable groups: thoracotomy and VATS groups, and the overall survival, recurrence-free survival, complication and length of hospitalization were compared between these two groups. Results: After the patients were matched by age, gender and pathologic stage, 272 patients remained eligible for analysis, 136 in each group (mean age of 59.5 years; 70 men, 66 women; 80 stage IA, 56 stage IB). There was no statistical difference in other preoperative clinical characteristics between the two groups. No hospital mortality was observed in both groups. Overall 3-year survival rate was 97.4% in thoracotomy group and 96.6% in VATS groups (p=0.76). During the follow-up, 20 patients (14.7%) developed recurrence in thoracotomy group, including loco-regional recurrence in 7, distant metastasis in 13. In VATS group, 13 patients (9.6%) developed recurrence, including loco-regional recurrence in 4, distant metastasis in 9. Three-year recurrence-free survival rate was 81.8% in thoracotomy group and 85.3% in VATS groups (p=0.43). There was no significant difference in postoperative complications between thoracotomy and VATS groups (30 cases in 22 patients vs. 19 cases in 17 patients, p=0.65, odds ratio=1.19). The mean hospital stay of VATS group was 2 days shorter than that of thoracotomy group ($8.8{\pm}6.5$ days vs. $6.3{\pm}3.3$ days, p<0.05). Conclusion: VATS lobectomy for pathologic stage I lung cancer is a feasible operation with shorter hospitalization, while surgical outcome is comparable to thoracotomy lobectomy.

  • A total of 285 patients with stage Ib2 and IIa2 cervical cancer were categorized into three groups, and received preoperative neoadjuvant chemotherapy combined with vaginal intracavitary irradiation, neoadjuvant chemotherapy alone or radiotherapy, respectively. The effective rate of 70.6 % in group 1 was much higher than 41.4% in group 2 (P=0.000) and 46.9 % in group 3 (P=0.000); The percentage of patients receiving postoperative adjuvant therapy was 44.1% in group 1, much lower than 67.8% in group 2 (P=0.001) and 64.6% in group 3 (P=0.004); The percentage of patients with no postoperative risk factor in group 1 was 52.0%, much higher than 32.2% in group 2 (P=0.006) and 35.4% in group 3 (P=0.019); The occurrence rate of surgery-related complications in groups 1, 2 and 3 were 29.4%, 28.7%, and 33.3%, respectively, with no statistical differences among the groups (P=0.981). Regarding preoperative neoadjuvant complications, none were obvious in group 3, while occurrence rates of myelosuppression in groups 1 and 2 were 89.1% and 86.6%, of nausea and vomitting were 78.4% and 78.2%, but without significant differences (all P>0.05). Among 166 patients who received postoperative adjuvant therapy in the three groups, the occurrence rates were: 65.4%, 64.3% and 61.1% respectively for myelosuppression; 42.3%, 38.1%, and 38.9% for nausea and vomiting; 9.6%, 9.5% and 9.7% for urocystitis; and 63.5%, 69.0% and 65.3% enteritis and rectitis. There were no statistically significant differences among them (all P>0.05). The five-year disease-free survival rates (DFS) in groups 1, 2, 3 were 78.3%, 75.1%, 80.9%, respectively; the five-year overall survival rates (OS) were 81.4%, 78.2%, and 81.1%, respectively. The five-year OS of 166 patients receiving postoperative in the three groups were 72.4%, 69.5%, and 71.8%, respectively, with no significant variation (all P>0.05). Although there were no differences among three groups in DFS and OS, preoperative neoadjuvant chemotherapy combined with intracavitary radiotherapy may increase the effective rate and the percentage of patients with no postoperative risk factors and decrease the percentage of patients receiving postoperative adjuvant therapy, thereby decreasing complications indirectly and increasing quality of life.

  • Background: To investigate the impact of ovarian transposition (OT) on survival rates of the patients with stage Ib squamous cell cervical cancer. Materials and Methods: Ninety-two subjects who underwent a radical hysterectomy including oophorectomy were evaluated. For nineteen (20.7%), OT was performed. Patients were divided into two groups, OT versus oophorectomy alone. The primary end-point of this study was to investigate the impact of OT on tumor recurrence rate and time, 5-year disease-free survival (DFS) and overall survival (OS). These comparisons were performed for subgroups including patients who received radiotherapy versus who did not. Statistical analyses were conducted using the Chi-square test, T-test and Mann-Whitney test. OS was examined using the Kaplan-Meier method. $P{\leq}0.05$ was considered to be statistically significant. Results: The median follow-up period was 89 months for OT and 81 months for the oophorectomy group (p>0.05). Both groups experienced similar recurrence rates (31.6% vs. 26.4%, p=0.181). The median duration from surgery to recurrence, and surgery to death were also similar between the groups (p>0.05). The 5-year DFS and OS rates were both 68.4% for the OT group, and 73.6% and 77.8% for the oophorectomy group (p=0.457 and p=0.307, respectively). While the 5-year DFS rate was not statistically significant between the OT and oophorectomy groups who did not receive radiotherapy (p=0.148), the 5-year OS rate was significantly higher in the oophorectomy group (95.4% vs 66.7%, respectively) without radiotherapy (p=0.05). The 5-year DFS and OS rates were statistically similar between the groups who received adjuvant radiotherapy (p>0.05). Conclusions: Ovarian transposition has not significantly negative effect on the survival rates when adjuvant radiotherapy will be applied, while 5-year OS may be less in OT group if radiotherapy is not mandatory.
