Abstract Background Solitary fibrous tumor (SFT) is a rare soft tissue tumor originating from mesenchyme. Two cases of SFT we report right now occurred in the splenic vein and liver respectively, this primary splenic vein SFT may be the first report case, and also the first report of liver recurrence SFT cured by orthotopic liver transplantation (OLT). Case presentation One case was a 37-year-old female patient whose primary tumor site was located in the splenic vein, which resulted in splenomegaly and hypersplenism; its recurrence again and again after surgical resection and eventually transferred to the liver, during 10 years of follow-up, 4 operations were performed, and he is in a good condition right now. The second case was a 54-year-old male patient whose primary tumor site was located in the liver, spleen and left side of the chest wall; however, he had no uncomfortable symptoms. Surgeons performed two operations to remove these tumors, totally. 6 years later, SFT recurrence in the liver, and given that the tumor was so large that it could not be completely surgical resected, we chose orthotopic liver transplantation (OLT), and no tumor recurrence during 12-month follow-up. Conclusion The reports of these two cases of SFT are very rare, especially the splenic vein SFT, which expand the understanding of SFT. The main treatment of SFT is still surgical resection, right now, and liver transplantation may be a new option treatment for the huge liver SFT.

213 Background: Gastroenteropancreatic neuroendocrine carcinoma (GEP-NEC) is a heterogeneous disease in terms of embryonic origin, aggressiveness, prognosis, and genomic profiling. Data regarding the efficacy of etoposide and cisplatin (EP) as a standard treatment of the primary tumor site in GEP-NEC are limited. Methods: We analyzed 64 patients with histopathologically confirmed metastatic GEP-NEC who received EP at Samsung Medical Center, Seoul, Korea, between January 2010 and January 2018. Based on primary tumor site, outcome of treatment with EP was evaluated. Results: Primary sites included 22 foregut-derived GEP-NECs (stomach, n = 6; duodenum, n = 4; pancreas, n = 12), 4 midgut-derived GEP-NECs, 5 hindgut-derived GEP-NECs of the rectum, 25 GEP-NECs originating from the hepatobiliary (HB) tract, and 12 GEP-NECs involving only intra-abdominal lymph nodes. No patient had a complete response (CR) and 17 had a partial response (PR), resulting in a 27.9% response rate (RR). When evaluating the efficacy of EP based on primary tumor site, the RR was most favorable in GEP-NECs involving only intra-abdominal lymph nodes, followed by GEP-NECs originating from foregut, midgut, HB, and hindgut. However, no statistically significant difference was observed for RR based on primary tumor site (p = 0.821). Similarly, no significant differences were found for progression-free survival (PFS) among patients with GEP-NECs arising from various primary tumor sites. Conclusions: Results from this study showed thatRR and PFS associated with EP treatment were not different based on the primary tumor site in patients with advanced or metastatic GEP-NEC.

Background. Gastroenteropancreatic neuroendocrine tumors (GEP-NETs) are commonly present with metastatic disease, and the liver is the most frequent metastatic site. Herein, we studied whether primary tumor site affects survival in patients with GEP-NETs and liver metastases (NELM). As a secondary endpoint, we studied whether extrahepatic disease and surgical resection impact survival in this patient population. Methods. Patients with NELM diagnosed from 2006 to 2014 were identified from the National Cancer Database. Kaplan-Meier curves and nested Cox proportional hazards were used to assess variables associated with survival. Results. 2947 patients with well- or moderately differentiated GEP-NETs and NELM met the inclusion criteria for this study. Patients with small bowel NETs survived the longest of all GEP-NETs with NELM (median not reached). Rectal and gastric NETs with NELM had the shortest survival (median 31 months). Patients with extrahepatic metastases who underwent any operation survived longer than those managed nonoperatively (median survival 38.7 months vs. 18.6 months, p=0.01). On multivariable analysis, operations on the primary tumor and distant metastatic site (HR 0.23-0.43 vs. no surgery), treatment at an academic/research hospital, Charlson comorbidity index of 0, no extrahepatic metastases, and younger age were associated with prolonged survival (p<0.01). Conclusions. Primary tumor site affects survival in patients with GEP-NETs and NELM. Surgical resection seems beneficial for all GEP-NETs with NELM, even in the presence of extrahepatic metastases.

Introduction: The benefit of cytoreductive nephrectomy (CN) for metastatic kidney cancer has been challenged recently. The study aimed to evaluate the prognostic roles of surgical resection of primary tumor site for metastatic kidney cancer under a real-world setting.Methods: The Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) database (2010–2015) and the overall survival (OS) and cancer-specific survival (CSS) were evaluated using the Cox proportional hazards regression model. One-to-one matching using the propensity score was used to estimate and compare the survival rates.Results: The SEER data contain records of 8,932 patients from 2010 to 2015. The data showed that 61.7% of the patients underwent CN while 38.2% did not receive any surgery. The median survival month for a patient without surgery was 4 months and for a patient with surgery was 19 months. The multivariate analysis showed that surgical resection of the primary tumor site was an independent favorable predictor for both OS and CSS (all p &lt; 0.001) in the original and the matching cohort.Conclusions: In the era of target therapy, CN might still be a vital method to treat metastatic kidney cancer.

PURPOSE Patients with lymphoblastic non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (LB NHL) were randomized to treatment with either modified LSA2L2 or ADCOMP, which added daunorubicin (DAUN) and asparaginase (L-ASP) to the methotrexate (MTX), cyclophosphamide (CYT), vincristine (VCR), and prednisone (PRED) (COMP) regimen, in a clinical trial to determine the relative effectiveness and toxicity of the two regimens. PATIENTS AND METHODS Patients with LB NHL were eligible for this randomized study if they were less than 22 years of age at diagnosis and had < or = 25% blasts in the bone marrow. Of 307 patients registered, 281 were fully eligible and assessable. Patients were stratified by extent of disease at diagnosis. RESULTS The 5-year event-free survival (EFS) rate for patients with localized disease was 84%, and for patients with disseminated disease, 67%. There were four relapses in 28 patients with localized disease. Two hundred six patients had mediastinal primary tumors and despite local radiation, 34 of 63 failures in these patients involved the primary tumor site with or without other involvement. After adjusting for extent of disease at diagnosis, the regimens did not differ significantly with respect to risk for adverse events. The acute toxicity was primarily neutropenia and thrombocytopenia, with greater initial toxicity in patients on the LSA2L2 regimen. Three patients developed acute myelogenous leukemia. CONCLUSION Long-term EFS in children with LB NHL can be achieved in the majority of patients. Disease progression, which includes recurrence at the primary tumor site, is a major cause of treatment failure in patients with mediastinal presentations. Addition of DAUN and L-ASP to the COMP regimen does not produce a more effective treatment than LSA2L2.
