546 Background: Unlike other solid tumors, tumor size (TS) is not a part of the TNM staging for colon cancer (CC). Our goal is to correlate TS with TNM staging, nodal positivity(NP), and 5-year overall survival (OS) for patients (pts) with invasive CC undergoing sentinel lymph node mapping (SLNM) vs. conventional surgery (CS). Methods: A retrospective review of 681 pts with invasive CC were reviewed and divided into two groups of pts (SLNM and CS). The pts in these two groups were subdivided according to the TS in four groups (0-2, 2-4, 4-6 and more than 6 cm). 461 pts underwent SLNM between 1996-2010 compared to 220 pts who underwent CS between 1996-2006. The pathology reports reviewed for TS (the maximum diameter of the primary tumor), T staging, and NP. The OS was calculated from the social security database and our hospital cancer registry. Then all data was compared between both groups. Results: Pts with TS <2cm were mainly T1+T2 (72%, 70%), whereas tumors >6 cm, majority of pts wereT3+T4 (94%, 85%). T1+T2 percentage consistently decreased as TS increased, and T3+T4 percentage was increasing consistently with increased TS (Table 1A). NP according to TS for SLNM pts were (16%, 53%, 56%, 48%) NP and for CS pts were (15%, 32%, 34%, 39%). In both groups, NP increased as TS increased compared to 0-2 cm group. The overall NP in both groups was 47% and 31% (Table 1B). OS for SLNM and CS pts were calculated in each group according to TS. Overall SLNM pts had better OS when compared to CS pts (65 %, 54%). Conclusions: Increasing TS was consistent with increasing T staging for both SLNM and CS pts. NP and OS were worse with increased TS for SLNM and CS pts. SLNM pts had higher NP and better outcome in OS when compared to CS pts, hence TS should be considered as a prognostic factor in pts with adenocarcinoma of the colon. [Table: see text]

e14046 Background: Unlike other solid tumors, tumor size (TS) is not a part of the TNM staging system for colon cancer. Our goal is to correlate TS with TNM staging, nodal positivity (NP), and 5-year overall survival (OS) for patients (pts) with invasive colon cancer undergoing sentinel lymph node mapping (SLNM) vs. conventional surgery (CS). Methods: A retrospective review of 681 pts with invasive adenocarcinoma of the colon were reviewed and divided into two groups of pts (SLNM and CS). These groups were subdivided according to the size of the tumor in four groups (0-2, 2-4, 4-6 and more than 6 cm). 461 pts underwent SLNM between 1996-2010 compared to 220 pts who underwent CS between 1996-2006.

734 Background: Unlike in breast cancer or melanoma, resection during sentinel lymph node mapping (SLNM) in colon cancer (CCa) includes regional lymphadenectomy including SLNs and non SLNs. However, SLNM often identifies micrometastases which can be missed by conventional (Conv) surgery and pathologic examination. It is unknown whether this impacts survival or recurrence. Hence, a retrospective analysis was undertaken to study overall (OS) and disease -specific (DSS) survival between patients (pts) undergoing SLNM vs Conv surgery based on the number of +veLNs. Methods: SLNM was done by subserosal injection with blue dye followed by segmental resection including regional lymphadenectomy. All SLNs were ultrastaged and other nodes were examined by conv. methods with H&E. Results: There are 309 pts in SLNM (GpA) vs 499 pts in Conv surgery (GpB); with average no. of lymph nodes (LNs) and +ve LNs 17.3/1.6 vs 14.4/2.49 respectively. For GpA, success rate was 99.6% and the average no of SLN was 3. Of the pts in GpA vs GpB, 1+ve LN were found in 38% vs 27%, 2+ve LNs in 10% vs 16%, and > 2 LNs in 53% vs 57%, respectively. Comparing 5 years OS between GpA vs GpB, for 1+ve LN was 62.8% vs 52.38%, for 2 +ve LNs 72.7% vs 48.65% and for > 2 +ve LNs 35% vs 33.33%, respectively. Similarly, DSS for 1 +veLN was 54.4% vs 47.6%, 2+ve LNs 40% vs 40.54% and > 2+ve LNs, 30.4% vs 25.76%, respectively(Table1.). Conclusions: Compared to Conv surgery, SLNM identified higher no. of LNs per pt with high success rate. Five-year OS and DSS also are better in SLNM vs Conv surgery for all +ve LN gps. Hence, SLNM in CCa may have prognostic value. A larger multicenter trial needs to be done to validate such data. [Table: see text]

411 Background: Unlike other solid tumors, tumor size (TS) is not included in TNM staging for CCa. We correlated TS with TNM staging and 5-year overall survival (5yrOS) for patients (pts) who underwent SLNM vs CS in NCDB. Methods: A retrospectively review of 312 CCa pts undergoing SLNM compared to 298,021 CCa pts from NCDB undergoing CS between 1996 and 2010 was done. The maximum diameter of the primary tumor as TS, T and Nodal status were reviewed. Pts in each group was subdivided into 4 groups: (<2cm; 2-4cm; 4-6cm; >6cm). Data were analyzed using Spearman’s rho correlation and Kaplan-Meier for 5yrOS. Hazard ratios (HR) were calculated using a Cox model adjusting for age, sex, grade, T, N-status, and TNM stage. Results: Pts with TS <2 cm were mainly T1&T2 (80.7%, 74.8%), whereas for tumors >6cm, majority of pts were T3&T4 (93.2%, 88.8%). T1&T2 percentage consistently decreased as TS increased and T3&T4 percentage consistently increased with TS (Table). Nodal positivity according to tumor size for SLNM were 17%, 49%, 56%, 46% and for CS were 18%, 38%, 48%, 51%, respectively. In both groups, nodal positivity increased as TS increased. The overall nodal positivity in both groups was 46% and 42%. For SLNM and CS, overall survival decreased as TS increased. Overall SLNM pts had better OS when compared to CS pts (65%, 54%). Conclusions: Nodal +vity and overall survival where slightly better in SLMN pts. Vs CS pts. TS had +ve correlation with T staging and N status in 5 yr OS. Hence, TS may be considered a prognostic factor in CCa pts. [Table: see text]
