Abstract
Introduction

There are many studies that analyse preoperative factors with a poor prognosis in patients undergoing surgery for colorectal carcinoma liver metastases, in order to avoid unnecessary surgery. However, there are few studies that evaluate the intra-and postoperative prognostic factors. The aim of this study is to analyse pre-, intra-, and postoperative prognostic factors in a series of 210 patients undergoing surgery for colorectal carcinoma liver metastases, with special emphasis on the postoperative factors that can give us information on the aggressiveness of the tumour and the curative effectiveness of the surgery.

Patients and method

Between September 1996 and December 2006, 210 patients undergoing surgery for colorectal carcinoma liver metastases in whom we analysed pre-, intra-, and postoperative factors of survival. Mean follow-up was 55 (3) months (range, 12–124 months).

Results

The postoperative mortality rate was 1.4% and the morbidity rate was 22%. Actuarial and disease-free survival at 1-, 3-, and 5-years was 89.9% versus 63%, 66.9% versus 32%, and 53.8% vs 23%, respectively. Among the preoperative factors analysed, the age >65 years and LM size >5cm were independent predictors of poor overall survival, whereas the other 2 significant factors were obtained from those analysed postoperatively: presence of microsatellitosis and postoperative CEA levels (at 1 and 3 months).

Conclusions

In patients with colorectal carcinoma liver metastases we must take into account certain postoperative factors that can give us information on the aggressiveness of the tumour and the effectiveness of the surgery.

Resumen
Introducción

Numerosos estudios han analizado los factores de mal pronóstico preoperatorios en pacientes sometidos a resección hepática por metástasis hepáticas de cáncer colorrectal (MHCCR) con el fin de seleccionar a los pacientes para tratamiento quirúrgico. Sin embargo, los factores intraoperatorios y postoperatorios han sido poco analizados. El objetivo de este estudio es determinar los factores preoperatorios, intraoperatorios y postoperatorios en una serie de 210 pacientes intervenidos por MHCCR, con especial énfasis en los factores postoperatorios, que podrían informar acerca de la agresividad del tumor y de la eficacia curativa de la cirugía realizada.

Pacientes y método

Realizamos un estudio prospectivo en 210 pacientes intervenidos de MHCCR entre septiembre de 1996 y diciembre de 2006, en el que analizamos factores de supervivencia preoperatorios, intraoperatorios y postoperatorios. El seguimiento fue de 55±3 (intervalo, 12–124) meses.

Resultados

La mortalidad postoperatoria fue del 1,4% y la morbilidad, del 22%. Las supervivencias actuariales frente a intervalos libres de enfermedad a 1, 3 y 5 años fueron del 89,9 frente al 63%, el 66,9 frente al 32% y el 53,8 frente al 23%, respectivamente. Entre los factores preoperatorios analizados, la edad > 65 años y el tamaño de la metástasis >5cm fueron factores de mal pronóstico independientes, mientras que dos factores significativos de mal pronóstico fueron obtenidos del análisis postoperatorio: microsatelitosis y cifras postoperatorias de CEA >5ng/ml (a 1 y 3 meses).

Conclusiones

En pacientes con MHCCR es necesario tener en cuenta los factores postoperatorios que pueden informarnos acerca de la agresividad del tumor y de la eficacia de la cirugía.
