Prognostic Factors of Non-Predominant-Lepidic Lung Adenocarcinoma Presenting As Ground Glass Opacity: Results of a Multicenter Study
Journal of Personalized Medicine(2024)
摘要
This study aims to define the clinicopathological characteristics and prognosis of non-predominant lepidic invasive adenocarcinoma presenting as Ground Glass Opacity (GGO) nodules. The goal is to assess statistical relationships between histology, tumor size, location, and the incidence of relapse and lymph node dissemination. A retrospective multicenter study was conducted, including patients with GGO observed on CT scans between 2003 and 2021. Anamnestic, radiological, and histological data, as well as SUV values, lymphatic and vascular invasion, pathological stage, resection type, and adjuvant treatment, were analyzed. The primary endpoints were to evaluate prognostic factors for death and recurrence using Cox regression analysis. All 388 patients, including 277 with non-predominant lepidic invasive adenocarcinoma and 161 with lepidic adenocarcinoma, underwent curative anatomical resection. Non-predominant lepidic invasive adenocarcinoma demonstrated a worse prognosis than lepidic adenocarcinoma (p = 0.001). Independent prognostic factors for death and recurrence included lymph node involvement (p = 0.002) and vascular and lymphatic invasion (p < 0.001). In conclusion, non-predominant lepidic invasive adenocarcinoma and lymphatic and vascular invasion are prognostic factors for death and recurrence in GGO patients. Results suggest adjuvant treatment in the case of pN1-N2 disease, emphasizing the necessity of lymphadenectomy (sampling or systematic) for accurate staging and subsequent therapeutic procedures.
