Comparative Analysis of Outcomes and Clinicopathological Characteristics of duodenal adenocarcinoma: A SEER analysis.
2020
Duodenal adenocarcinoma is an uncommon, malignant tumor usually accompanied by a poor prognosis. We identified 3,150 duodenal adenocarcinoma cases from the SEER database(1988-2013) to analyze clinical characteristics and outcomes. The Kaplan-Meier method was used to evaluate cancer-specific survival (CSS). Cox regression analysis was used to explore the prognostic factors of CSS. Adverse prognostic factors include higher tumor grade, later stage, tumor size ≥2cm, positive regional lymph nodes, and not undergoing surgical resection. Our results suggest, surgery is the optimal treatment for duodenal cancer, and combined radiotherapy does not improve survival.
