Abstract:
Objective:To compare the survival of patients with intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma(ICC) after surgical treatment with postoperative radiotherapy,to explore the feasibility of postoperative adjuvant radiotherapy,and to provide a basis for the clinical treatment of ICC.Methods:The clinical data of patients diagnosed as ICC in The Surveillance,Epidemiology and End Results(SEER) database from 2004 to 2015 were extracted.Patients were divided into surgery group and post-operative radiotherapy group.Using Kaplan-Meier method to compare the overall survival(OS) and liver cancer specific survival(LCSS) difference between the two groups.After 1∶1 propensity score matching(PSM),the difference between OS and LCSS was compared again.Then a subgroup analysis was performed to compare the efficacy of the surgery group and the postoperative radiotherapy group.Finally,data from our hospital were collected to verify the database results.Results:A total of 470 patients were included in the study,including 410 patients in the surgery group and 60 patients in the postoperative radiotherapy group.There was no significant difference between the medium OS(19.00 months vs 26.00 months,P=0.268) and the medium LCSS(19.00 months vs 26.00 months,P=0.591) between the surgery group and the postoperative radiotherapy group before PSM.The medium OS(25.50 months vs 26.00 months,P=0.531) and the medium LCSS(27.00 months vs 26.00 months,P=0.302) were also not significantly different after PSM.In the subgroup analysis,postoperative radiotherapy was not a protective factor for the overall survival of ICC patients.The data results of our hospital were consistent with the database results.Conclusion:Compared with surgical treatment,adjuvant radiotherapy for ICC patients does not prolong survival.
