Natural history and prognostic factors for localised small bowel adenocarcinoma

Abstract: ObjectiveSmall bowel adenocarcinoma (SBA) is a rare malignancy with limited evidence regarding outcomes after curative resection of localised disease. We aimed to evaluate presentation and prognostic factors affecting overall survival (OS), relapse-free survival (RFS) and recurrence of SBA.MethodsConsecutive patients with completely resected localised SBA (1979–2019) were retrospectively reviewed for presentation, patient and tumour characteristics, perioperative treatment, recurrence, outcomes, and prognostic… Show more

“…The clinical manifestation of SBA is not specific (i.e., abdominal pain, weight loss, nausea and vomiting, occult GI tract bleeding), coupled with a limited sensitivity of conventional radiological imaging [11] . Historically, a significant delay from onset of symptoms to diagnosis has been described for small bowel adenocarcinoma (SBA), related to that vague of symptoms and the challenges of evaluating the small intestine [9] .…”

“…The most common histological types of small intestine tumors are adenocarcinoma, carcinoid tumor, lymphoma, and stromal cells. About one-third of malignant tumors in the small intestine are reported as adenocarcinoma, with a low 5-year overall survival rate (25%) [ [3] , [4] , [5] , [6] , [7] , [1] , [2] , [3] , [4] , [5] , [6] , [7] , [8] ]. In the absence of specific symptoms, more than 30% of small bowel adenocarcinoma (SBA) patients at the time of diagnosis are stage IV, contributing to the poor prognosis [ 9 , 10 ].…”

“…Diagnosis of SBA is often delayed due to nonspecific patient symptoms and the resulting difficulty in performing appropriate tests. This delay contributes to a poor prognosis despite surgery, adjuvant chemotherapy, and radiation therapy [ 7 ]. While some cancers, such as colorectal cancer, stomach cancer, and breast cancer, have well-established screening tests and well-established guidelines for treatment, such guidelines are poor for small intestine cancer.…”

“…6 Adverse prognostic factors for surgically resected SBAs include TNM stage III/IV, duodenal site, grade 3 histologic grade (ie, poorly differentiated carcinomas), lymphovascular and perineural invasion, high tumor budding, whereas the association with celiac disease, Afro-Caribbean descent, dMMR/MSI-H, and tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes have been reported to be related with a more favorable outcome. 4,[7][8][9][10][11][12] Moreover, recent studies suggest that SBA histologic subtypes may have prognostic significance. 7,13 In particular, patients with SBAs characterized by noncohesive histology appear to have a worse prognosis in comparison with those exhibiting cohesive histotypes.…”
