Risk factors analysis of ulcerative colitis-associated colorectal cancer / 中华消化外科杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective To explore the risk factors of ulcerative colitis-associated colorectal cancer (UC-CRC).Methods The retrospective case-control study was conducted.The clinicopathological data of 536 patients with ulcerative colitis (UC) who were admitted to the Henan Tumor Hospital from March 2004 to June 2015 were collected.Observation indicators:(1) follow-up results:cases with follow-up,follow-up time,cases of UC-CRC,age of onset,pathological type of UC-CRC;(2) risk factors analysis affecting occurrence of UC-CRC:gender,age of onset,course of disease,severity of disease,disease classification,extent of lesion,smoking history,family history of colorectal cancer,anemia,hypoproteinemia,body weight loss,extraintestinal manifestations,colonic polyps,backwash ileitis,atypical hyperplasia,anxiety or depression,treatment method and regular endoscopy reexamination.Follow-up using outpatient examination and telephone interview was performed to detect prognosis of patients up to April 2017.Patients underwent colonoscopy once every 6 months within 3 years after diagnosis and once every 1 year after 3 years.Measurement data with skewed distribution were described as M (range).The univariate analysis was done using the chi-square test and Fisher exact probability.The multivariate analysis was done using the Logistic regression model.Results (1) Follow-up results:of 536 patients,450 were followed up for 26.0-120.0 months,with a median time of 76.4 months.During the follow-up,16 patients were complicated with UC-CRC,including 9 males and 7 females.Age of onset of colorectal cancer was 14-78 years,with an average age of onset of 44 years.Pathological type:high-differentiated right colon adenocarcinoma was detected in 5 patients,high-and moderate-differentiated left colon adenocarcinoma in 3 patients,left colon signetring cell carcinoma in 2 patients,moderate-differentiated rectal tubular adenocarcinoma in 3 patients,highdifferentiated rectal papillary adenocarcinoma in 2 patients and malignant lymphoma in 1 patient.(2) Risk factors analysis affecting occurrence of UC-CRC:the results of univariate analysis showed that course of disease,extent of lesion,colonic polyps and atypical hyperplasia were risk factors affecting occurrence of UC-CRC (x2 =14.848,18.885,10.554,P＜0.05).The results of multivariate analysis showed that course of disease ＞ 10 years,lesion involving the whole colon,colonic polyps and atypical hyperplasia were independent risk factors affecting occurrence of UC-CRC (OR=12.893,17.847,7.326,19.742,95％ confidence interval:1.726-74.337,1.445-89.793,1.263-43.128,3.625-96.524,P＜0.05).Conclusion The course of disease ＞ 10 years,lesion involving the whole colon,atypical hyperplasia and colonic polyps are independent risk factors affecting occurrence of UC-CRC.
