摘要: 目的 探讨T3~T4期下咽癌患者手术后预后相关风险因素以及不同术后辅助治疗策略对患者预后的影响。方法 回顾性分析2003-2015年间229例在复旦大学附属眼耳鼻喉科医院接受手术的T3~T4期下咽癌患者的临床资料。通过单、多因素分析患者术后生存的风险因素并将患者根据风险分层, 比较不同术后辅助治疗方案在不同风险组中的疗效。结果 229例T3~T4期患者3年及5年总生存率分别为39.07%、29.03%;3年及5年RFS分别为40.22%、30.29%。多因素分析结果显示咽后壁及环后区肿瘤、N2c~N3、淋巴血管侵犯以及淋巴结囊外扩散是患者预后的独立危险因素。术后辅助治疗的应用显著改善高风险组患者术后生存(P < 0.05), 并能降低术后复发(P < 0.01), 且术后放化疗效果优于单纯术后放疗(P < 0.05)。术后辅助治疗对低风险组患者术后生存没有显著影响。结论 T3~T4期下咽癌患者预后的独立风险因素包括咽后壁及环后区肿瘤、N2c~N3、淋巴血管侵犯以及淋巴结囊外扩散。建议存在风险因素的患者接受术后辅助治疗, 其中术后放化疗优于单纯术后放疗。对于无风险因素的患者, 术后建议密切随访及复查。Abstract: Objective To investigate the independent prognostic risk factors and the application of different postoperative adjuvant treatment strategies on patients with T3-T4 hypopharyngeal carcinoma.Methods Based on the inclusion criteria, we conducted a retrospective study that analyzed the clinical data of 229 cases who underwent surgery at the Eye, Ear, Nose and Throat Hospital of Fudan University from 2003 to 2015. Risk factors for postoperative survival were analyzed by univariate and multivariate analysis and patients were stratified according to the independent risk factors. The efficacy of various postoperative adjuvant therapystrategies were compared in different risk groups.Results Two hundred and twenty-nine patients with T3-T4 primary tumor had 3-year and 5-year overall survival rates of 39.07% and 29.03%, respectively; 3-year and 5-year recurrence-free survival rates were 40.22% and 30.29%, respectively. The results of multivariate analysis demonstrated that tumors in the posterior pharyngeal wall and posterior cricoid region, N2c-N3, lymphovascular invasion, and extranodal extension were independent risk factors. The utility of postoperative adjuvant therapy significantly improved postoperative survival in the high-risk group (P < 0.05) and reduced postoperative recurrence significantly (P < 0.01). Patients received adjuvant chemoradiation had better survival than those received adjuvant radiation alone (P < 0.05). Postoperative adjuvant therapy had no significant effect on postoperative survival of patients in the low-risk group.Conclusion Independent risk factors for patients with T3-T4 hypopharyngeal carcinoma include tumors in the posterior pharyngeal wall and posterior cricoid region, N2c-N3, lymphovascular invasion, as well as extranodal extension. Postoperative adjuvant therapy, especially adjuvant chemoradiation, is recommended for patient with risk factors mentioned above. For patients without those risk factors, postoperative follow-up and re-examination are recommended.
