Abstract OBJECTIVE To evaluate the metastasis rate, survival time, and prognostic factors associated with appendicular or scapular osteosarcoma treated by limb amputation in cats. ANIMALS 67 cats with histologically confirmed appendicular or scapular osteosarcoma treated by limb amputation. PROCEDURES This retrospective cohort study included cats with histologically confirmed appendicular or scapular osteosarcoma between January 1997 and December 2018. A questionnaire survey was conducted at veterinary clinics where limb amputation was performed. Distant metastasis, local recurrence, and lymph node metastasis rates and survival time were determined. Factors associated with distant metastasis and survival were investigated. RESULTS The distant metastasis rate after limb amputation was 41.9% (26/62). The overall distant metastasis rate was 46.3% (31/67), including 5 cats with distant metastasis at the time of amputation. Osteosarcoma of the humerus resulted in distant metastasis in 6 of 7 cases. Osteosarcoma of the humerus was significantly associated with distant metastasis in univariate and multivariate analyses (adjusted OR, 9.56). The rate of lymph node metastasis after limb amputation was 3.0% (2/66), and the local recurrence rate was 9.0% (6/67). The median survival time was 527 days. Age and tumor location were not significantly associated with survival time. CLINICAL RELEVANCE Distant metastasis occurs in approximately 40% of cats with appendicular or scapular osteosarcoma after limb amputation. In addition, osteosarcoma of the humerus has a particularly high incidence of distant metastasis. Detailed follow-up is therefore necessary, even after limb amputation, especially in cases of osteosarcoma of the humerus.

Abstract Background Endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) has been accepted as a standard treatment for early gastric cardiac cancer (EGCC). Here, we investigate the clinical outcomes of the EGCC patients who underwent ESD in different indications. Methods From January 2011 to October 2019, we enrolled 502 EGCC lesions from 495 patients which were resected by ESD at our center. We retrospectively analyzed the short-term and long-term clinical outcomes among different indication groups. Results The number of the patients in the absolute indication (AI), expanded indication (EI) and beyond the expanded indication (BEI) groups was 265, 137 and 93, respectively. The en bloc resection rate was 100%, 100% and 98.9% (P = 0.185). The complete resection rate was 99.3%, 98.5% and 74.5%, respectively (P < 0.001). During a median follow-up of 48.1 months, the lymph node metastasis rate was 0%, 0% and 2.3% (P < 0.001). The distant metastasis rate was 0.4%, 0% and 2.3% (P = 0.150). The five-year disease-specific survival rate in the BEI group was 96.6% (P = 0.016), compared to 99.6% in the AI group and 100% in the EI group. Conclusion The efficacy for ESD patients in EI group was almost equal to the AI group. Patients in the BEI group showed generally favorable clinical outcomes and needed to be carefully checked after ESD. ESD may be an optional treatment for patients unsuitable for gastrectomy.

Breast cancer (BC) demonstrates considerable intratumoral morphological heterogeneity. The aim of this work was to evaluate the relationship among different morphological structures, the rate of metastasis, and efficacy of neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC) in NAC-treated (n = 427) and NAC-nave (n = 249) BC patients. We also studied the involvement of an epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) in the development of the intratumoral morphological heterogeneity of BC. We found a significant association between the intratumoral morphological heterogeneity and the rate of BC metastasis and response to NAC, which, in most cases, correlated with the presence of alveolar and trabecular structures. In particular, the rate of lymph node metastasis in tumors containing alveolar and trabecular structures was higher compared to that in tumors lacking such structures. NAC-treated patients with alveolar and trabecular structures had a high distant metastasis rate and a low metastasis-free survival rate. Furthermore, alveolar and trabecular structures were found to be associated with a lack of response to NAC. Interestingly, the association between alveolar structures and a high distant metastasis rate was found only in NAC-unresponsive patients, whereas the association between trabecular structures and an increased distant metastasis was revealed in responders. Alveolar structures were associated with chemoresistance only in patients with lymph node metastases, whereas trabecular structures were associated with chemoresistance only in patients without lymph node metastases. In general, increased intratumoral morphological diversity correlated with considerable chemoresistance and a high metastasis rate of BC. We found variable expressions of epithelial (EPCAM and CDH1) and mesenchymal (ITGA5, ITGB5, CDH2, CDH11, TGFb2, ZEB1, MMP2, DCN, MST1R) markers and, thus, different EMT manifestations in different morphological structures. Therefore, intratumoral morphological heterogeneity of BC may serve as an indicator of the metastatic potential and tumor chemosensitivity.

This was a retrospective study of patients who did or did not receive post-operative radiotherapy for squamous cell carcinoma of the larynx.The rates of local and regional recurrences, distant metastases and second primaries were evaluated in 236 patients who received radiotherapy following surgery. These rates were evaluated and compared with those from 294 patients treated with surgery alone.Multivariate analysis of irradiated patients revealed that local and regional recurrences were determined independently by tumour (T) and pathologic node (pN) stages (p < 0.05). The distant metastasis rate significantly depended on N stage (p < 0.05). Multiple primary tumours were not significantly affected by any of the factors studied (p > 0.05).Analysis of both irradiated and non-irradiated patients revealed that local and regional recurrence was determined independently by pathologic T (pT) stage, tumour localization, radiation status and pN stages (p < 0.05). The distant metastasis rate significantly depended on N stage and tumour localization (p < 0.05) and the rate of formation of multiple primary tumours was significantly affected by the patient's age and radiation status (p < 0.05).In conclusion irradiation of laryngeal cancer patients independently increases the risk of local and regional recurrence, and also increases the risk of multiple primary tumours while not significantly influencing the risk of distant metastasis. The risk of distant metastasis is affected by determinants of advanced lesions and tumour localization.

Clinical and pathologic factors were analyzed in 40 patients with localized muscle-invasive bladder carcinoma treated in a prospective bladder-preserving program consisting of transurethral tumor resection, neoadjuvant chemotherapy (methotrexate, cisplatin, and vinblastine [MCV]), and 4,000 cGy radiotherapy with concurrent cisplatin. Patients with biopsy-proven complete response after chemotherapy and 4,000 cGy radiation received full-dose radiotherapy (6,480 cGy) with cisplatin. Cystectomy was recommended to patients with residual disease. Distant metastasis rate was associated with tumor stage and size: 0% in T2 patients, 39% in T3-4 patients (P = .035), 6% for tumors less than 5 cm, and 59% for tumors greater than or equal to 5 cm (P = .002). Risk of bladder tumor recurrence was higher in patients with tumor-associated carcinoma in situ (CIS; 40%) than those without CIS (6%; P = .075). Papillary tumors and solid tumors both had similar treatment outcomes. By multivariate analysis, tumor stage T2 (P = .04) and absence of CIS (P = .03) were significant predictors of complete response; CIS was predictive of local bladder recurrence (P = .07); and tumor size (P = .03), response after chemoradiotherapy (P = .02), and vascular invasion (P = .08) were associated with distant metastasis. Six of eight local bladder tumor recurrences were superficial tumors. The low actuarial distant metastasis rate of T2 patients (0% at 3 years), the 3-year actuarial overall survival rates for T2 (89%) and T3-4 (50%) patients, and the similar treatment outcomes for papillary versus solid tumors are encouraging when compared with published historical controls. These results provide preliminary evidence (median follow-up, 30 months) that the current chemoradiotherapy regimen may have beneficial effects in the treatment of muscle-invasive bladder carcinoma. The true efficacy of neoadjuvant chemotherapy remains to be proven by ongoing randomized trials.
