ABSTRACT
ABSTRACT Introduction:
Soft tissue undifferentiated pleomorphic sarcoma (UPS) in extremities is considered a rare neoplasm, corresponding to 5% of soft tissue sarcomas (STS) today. The objective was to evaluate prognostic factors related to death, local recurrence (LR), and impact on survival rates.Methods:
A retrospective study including 42 patients with UPS in extremities treated surgically in a single center. Comparisons were made between demographic data, characteristics of the neoplasia, and treatment. Between the variables with statistical significance, logistic regression analysis was used. Survival rates were evaluated using Kaplan-Meier plots. To compare the effect of variables on survival rates, the Log-Rank test was used.Results:
Age group of patients was from 25 to 85 years (mean 58 years), with a mean follow-up of 29.6 months. The variables with the highest effect on survival rates were sizes larger than 15 cm (T4) with p = 0.01, presence of metastatic lesions, and prognostic stage IV according to the American Joint Committee of Cancer (AJCC) with p < 0.001. The mean survival was 25.9 months. Metastasis and stage IV of AJCC were associated with a reduction in patient survival (17.8 months) with Log-Rank test p < 0.001.Conclusion:
The main factors of poor prognosis related to mortality and reduction of survival of UPS in extremities were metastatic lesions and stage IV of AJCC. Level of Evidence III, Retrospective Study.RESUMO
RESUMO O sarcoma pleomórfico indiferenciado (SPI) de tecidos moles em extremidades, neoplasia rara, correspondente a 5% dos sarcomas de tecidos moles (STM). Objetivo:
Avaliar fatores de prognóstico relacionados a óbito, recorrência local (RL) e impacto na sobrevida geral.Métodos:
Estudo retrospectivo de 42 pacientes com SPI tratados cirurgicamente em centro único. Foram comparados dados demográficos, características da neoplasia e de tratamento; e para as variáveis com significância estatística, foi realizada análise de regressão logística. A sobrevida foi avaliada através de gráficos de Kaplan-Meier; e os efeito das variáveis sobre a sobrevida, por meio do teste de log-rank.Resultados:
Os pacientes tinham idades entre 25 e 85 anos (média de 58 anos), com seguimento ambulatorial médio de 29,6 meses. As variáveis com maior relação com o desfecho óbito foram tamanho maior que 15 cm (T4), com p = 0,01, metástases e estágio IV de prognóstico da American Joint Committee on Cancer (AJCC), com p < 0,001. A sobrevida média dos pacientes foi de 25,9 meses. Presença de metástase e estágio IV da AJCC foram associados à redução na sobrevida dos pacientes (17,8 meses; p < 0,001).Conclusão:
Os principais fatores de mau prognóstico relacionados ao óbito e à redução da sobrevida dos pacientes com SPI foram doença metastática e estágio IV da AJCC. Nível de Evidência III, Estudo Retrospectivo.
