ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVE: Malignant mixed tumors of the salivary gland are a group of neoplasms comprised of carcinoma-ex-pleomorphic adenoma, carcinosarcoma, and metastasizing pleomorphic adenoma. An alternative classification, malignant mixed tumor-not otherwise (MMT-NOS), is a diagnosis of exclusion for neoplasms that do not fit the previous histologically profiled subtypes. The objective was to provide a comprehensive assessment of MMT-NOS and determine prognostic factors. METHODS: This retrospective cohort study queried the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results database for patient and tumor characteristics of US patients with MMT-NOS of the major salivary glands from 1973 to 2016. Kaplan-Meier and Cox regression analysis were performed to determine 5-year survival and prognostic factors. RESULTS: 434 patients were identified with a mean age at diagnosis of 61.5 years. The majority of neoplasms were high grade and stage (70.8% grade III/IV; 63.8% stage III/IV). Extraparenchymal extension (40.6%) and lymph node involvement (28.5%) were common; distant metastases (2.4%) were rare. Treatment included surgery (93.0%), radiation (51.6%), and chemotherapy (10.4%). Facial nerve sacrifice was common (50.8%). Median survival was 66.5 months. 5-year overall and disease-specific survival were 65.7% and 83.0%, respectively. In multivariate analysis, nodal involvement (HR 7.0; P < 0.001), surgery-radiation-chemotherapy (HR 6.1; P = 0.02), extraparenchymal extension (HR 2.50; P = 0.04), and tumor size >4 cm (HR 1.3; P = 0.03) were prognostic factors. CONCLUSION: Despite high stage and grade at diagnosis, MMT-NOS portends a good 5-year prognosis and low rate of distant metastasis. Prognostic factors were nodal involvement, tumor size, and extraparenchymal extension.

ABSTRACT

PURPOSE: To assess whether CT findings, clinical parameters, and modified Hinchey classification are predictive of management outcomes of patients with acute diverticulitis. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Data were accrued between January 2014 and December 2015. A total of 301 adult subjects were identified from radiology reports, of which six who did not met the inclusion criteria were excluded, thus yielding 295 subjects. Subjects were 43.1% (n = 127) male and 56.9% female (n = 168), with mean age 51.9 years (range 18-90). Two independent abdominal radiologists reviewed all scans; imaging features and a modified Hinchey classification were scored. Descriptive statistics compared the relationships between imaging findings, clinical parameters obtained from medical record review, and modified Hinchey classification with management outcomes. RESULTS: CT findings associated with surgical management include the presence of a pericolonic fluid collection (36.8% vs. 8.2%, P = 0.0001), colonic fistula (13.2% vs. 0.4%, P = 0.0002), extraluminal air (26.4% vs. 9.3%, P = 0.0052), bowel obstruction (5.2% vs. 0.0%, P = 0.0162), and a modified Hinchey score of Ib or higher (55.3% vs. 11.7%, P = 0.0001). Slightly lower systolic blood pressure was also associated with operative management (137.2 mmHg vs. 128.2 mmHg, P = 0.0220). CONCLUSION: Specific CT imaging features and modified Hinchey classification are associated with subsequent surgical management in patients with acute diverticulitis.
