摘要

Background

This retrospective study investigated the validity of pancreatoduodenectomy (PD) with regard to recurrence in older patients with distal cholangiocarcinoma (DC).

Methods

We compared 28 patients aged ≥ 75 years and 65 patients aged < 75 years who underwent PD for DC, and evaluated the relationship between age, clinicopathological factors, and outcomes.

Results

Postoperative mortality and morbidity rates did not differ between the groups. Although there were no significant differences in 5-year recurrence, disease-specific survival, and overall survival rates between the groups (45.4, 58.1, and 51.7% in patients ≥ 75 years and 50.3%, 62.7%, and 58.1% in patients < 75 years; P = 0.73, 0.44, and 0.24, respectively), the median time from recurrence to death (RTD) in older patients was significantly shorter than that in younger patients (0.5 years vs. 1.3 years, P = 0.013). In multivariate analysis, age ≥ 75 years (hazard ratio [HR]: 3.0), controlling nutritional status (CONUT) score ≥ 4 (HR: 2.5), poorly-differentiated adenocarcinoma or adenosquamous carcinoma (HR: 3.2), and failure to implement treatment after recurrence (HR: 5.3) were independent risk factors for a short time from RTD. Furthermore, at the time of recurrence, older patients had significantly poorer serum albumin levels, prognostic nutrition index, Glasgow prognostic score, and CONUT score. Age ≥ 75 years (odds ratio: 0.19) was an independent risk factor for implementation of treatment after recurrence.

Conclusions

PD in older patients may be acceptable; however, the median time from RTD was shorter owing to lower nutritional status and rates of treatment implementation after recurrence.
