Although aggressive and multidisciplinary approach to the treatment has been done,there is no significant improvement in 5-year survival in the last 20 years. Treatment failure occurredin the form of locoregional recurrence, distant metastasis, and/or a second primary tumor. A variety oftumor molecular markers have been studied to determine their potential in predicting disease outcome orresponse to the therapy. Purpose: To investigate correlation p53, Bcl-2, c-Myc, and MMP-9 expressionto clinicopathologic parameter in head and neck squamous cell carcinoma patient in dr. Zainoel Abidinhospital. Methods: Cross sectional design study. The sample was consisted of 60 paraffin blocks ofhead and neck squamous cell carcinoma. Procedure of immunohistochemical staining used monoclonalantibodies against p53, Bcl-2, c-Myc, and MMP-9. Expression of p53 protein, Bcl-2, c-Myc, and MMP-9were analyzed by immunohistochemistry in head and neck squamous cell carcinoma. Then, the results were linked to clinicopathologic parameters such as age, sex, tumor location, tumor differentiation,lymph node metastasis and tumor stage, and statistically analyzed with Chi square.

Background: The most striking clinical feature of soft tissues sarcomas (STS) is their ability to recur. At present disputes about the clinical and morphological factors of STS recurrence such as the degree of malignancy, size, location, depth of tumor location, patient’s age and the presence of previous relapses in the anamnesis do not subside. It also requires clarification of the effect of the volume of tissues removed on the long-term results of treatment of STS as well as indications for the application of various regimes of remote radiation therapy. Materials and methods: Of 1802 registered cases of STS of extremities at the N.N. Petrov National Medical Research Center of Oncology from 2004 to 2016 there were selected data on 213 patients who suffered from at least one relapse of the disease. There was performed an assessment of overall, non-metastatic and disease-free survival using a single-factor (the Kaplan-Meier method) and multivariate analysis (the Cox regression model). Conclusion: The detection of various prognostic factors of locally recurrent STS allows determining the necessary treatment tactics (the vastness and traumatism of surgery and the advisability of radiation therapy).

BackgroundMeningiomas are the most common benign intracranial tumors. However, even WHO grade I meningiomas occasionally show local tumor recurrence. Prognostic factors for meningiomas have not been fully established. Neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) has been reported as a prognostic factor for several solid tumors. The prognostic value of NLR in meningiomas has been analyzed in few studies.Materials and MethodsThis retrospective study included 160 patients who underwent surgery for meningiomas between October 2010 and September 2017. We analyzed the associations between patients’ clinical data (sex, age, primary/recurrent, WHO grade, extent of removal, tumor location, peritumoral brain edema, and preoperative laboratory data) and clinical outcomes, including recurrence and progression-free survival (PFS).ResultsForty-four meningiomas recurred within the follow-up period of 3.8 years. WHO grade II, III, subtotal removal, history of recurrence, Ki-67 labeling index ≥3.0, and preoperative NLR value ≥2.6 were significantly associated with shorter PFS (P < 0.001, < 0.001, 0.002, < 0.001, and 0.015, respectively). Furthermore, NLR ≥ 2.6 was also significantly associated with shorter PFS in a subgroup analysis of WHO grade I meningiomas (P = 0.003). In univariate and multivariate analyses, NLR ≥2.6 remained as a significant predictive factor for shorter PFS in patients with meningioma (P = 0.014).ConclusionsNLR may be a cost-effective and novel preoperatively usable biomarker in patients with meningiomas.

(1) Background: The AJCC Cancer Staging Manual, Eighth Edition, subdivided T2 GBC into T2a and T2b. However, there still exist a lack of evidence on the prognostic significance of tumor location. The aim of the present study was to examine the existing evidence to determine the prognostic significance of tumor location of T2 gallbladder cancer (GBC) and to evaluate the optimal surgical extent according to tumor location. (2) Methods: We searched for relevant literature published in the electronic databases PubMed, MEDLINE, Web of Science, Cochrane Library, and Embase before September 2020 using search terms related to gallbladder, cancer, and stage. Data were weighted and pooled using random-effects modeling. (3) Results: Seven studies were deemed eligible for inclusion, representing a cohort of 1789 cases of resected T2 GBC. The overall survival for T2b tumor was significantly worse than that for T2a tumor (HR, 2.141; 95% confidence interval (CI), 1.140 to 4.023; I2 = 71.4%; Pchi2 = 0.007). The rate of lymph node metastasis was lower in the T2a group (26.6%) than in the T2b group (36.6%) (OR, 2.164; 95% CI, 1.309 to 3.575). There was no evidence of a survival difference between the patients who underwent extended cholecystectomy and simple cholecystectomy in T2a GBC (OR, 0.802; 95% CI, 0.618 to 1.042) and T2b GBC (OR, 0.820; 95% CI, 0.620 to 1.083). (4) Conclusions: Hepatic side tumor was a significant poor prognostic factor in T2 GBC. Extended cholecystectomy and simple cholecystectomy showed comparable survival outcomes in T2 GBC, and additional large-scale prospective studies are warranted to establish evidence-based treatment guidelines for T2 GBC.

Abstract Background Cholangiocarcinoma (CCA) has been categorized based on tumor location as intrahepatic (ICCA), perihilar (PCCA) or distal (DCCA), and based on the morphology of the tumor of the bile duct as mass forming (MF), periductal infiltrating (PI) or intraductal (ID). To date, there is limited evidence available regarding the survival of CCA among these different anatomical and morphological classifications. This study aimed to evaluate the survival rate and median survival time after curative surgery among CCA patients according to their anatomical and morphological classifications, and to determine the association between these classifications and survival. Methods This study included CCA patients who underwent curative surgery from the Cholangiocarcinoma Screening and Care Program (CASCAP), Northeast Thailand. The anatomical and morphological classifications were based on pathological findings after surgery. Survival rates of CCA and median survival time since the date of CCA surgery and 95% confidence intervals (CI) were calculated. Multiple cox regression was performed to evaluate factors associated with survival which were quantified by hazard ratios (HR) and their 95% CIs. Results Of the 746 CCA patients, 514 had died at the completion of the study which constituted 15,643.6 person-months of data recordings. The incidence rate was 3.3 per 100 patients per month (95% CI: 3.0–3.6), with median survival time of 17.8 months (95% CI: 15.4–20.2), and 5-year survival rate of 24.6% (95% CI: 20.7–28.6). The longest median survival time was 21.8 months (95% CI: 16.3–27.3) while the highest 5-year survival rate of 34.8% (95% CI: 23.8–46.0) occurred in the DCCA group. A combination of anatomical and morphological classifications, PCCA+ID, was associated with the longest median survival time of 40.5 months (95% CI: 17.9–63.0) and the highest 5-year survival rate of 42.6% (95% CI: 25.4–58.9). The ICCA+MF combination was associated with survival (adjusted HR: 1.45; 95% CI: 1.01–2.09; P = 0.013) compared to ICCA+ID patients. Conclusions Among patients receiving surgical treatment, those with PCCA+ID had the highest 5-year survival rate, which was higher than in groups classified by only anatomical characteristics. Additionally, the patients with ICCA+MF tended to have unfavorable surgical outcomes. Showed the highest survival association. Therefore, further investigations into CCA imaging should focus on patients with a combination of anatomical and morphological classifications.

Abstract BACKGROUND Tumor proximity to the ventricle and ventricular entry (VE) during surgery have both been associated with poorer prognoses; however, the interaction between these two factors is poorly understood. METHODS The UCSF tumor registry was searched for patients with newly diagnosed and recurrent supratentorial glioblastoma who underwent surgical resection with the senior author between 2013 – 2018. Tumor location with respect to the subventricular zone (SVZ), size, VE, and extent of resection were assessed using pre and postoperative imaging. RESULTS In the 200-patient cohort of newly diagnosed and recurrent glioblastoma, 26.5% had VE. Comparing patients with VE to those without VE, there was no difference in postoperative hydrocephalus (1.9% vs. 4.8%, p = 0.36), ventriculoperitoneal shunting (0% vs. 3.4%, p = 0.17), pseudomeningoceles (7.5% vs. 5.4%, p = 0.58), or subdural hematomas (11.3% vs. 3.4%, p = 0.07). Importantly, rates of leptomeningeal disease (7.5% in VE vs. 10.2% w/o VE, p = 0.57) and distant parenchymal recurrence (17.9% in VE vs. 23.1% w/o VE, p = 0.35) were not different between the groups. There was no effect of VE on EOR when controlling for SVZ type. Newly diagnosed patients with tumors contacting the SVZ (Type 1 or 2) had worse survival than patients with tumors that did not contact the SVZ (Type 3 or 4) (1.27 vs 1.84 years, p = 0.014, HR 1.8, CI 1.08 – 3.03), but VE was not associated with worse survival in these patients with high risk SVZ Type 1 and 2 tumors (1.15 vs 1.68 years, p = 0.151, HR 0.59, CI 0.26 – 1.34). DISCUSSION VE was well tolerated with complications being rare events. There was no increase in leptomeningeal spread or distant parenchymal recurrence in patients with VE. Finally, VE did not change survival for patients with tumors contacting the ventricle.
