BackgroundThis study aims to test the effect of the 10 most common nonurological primary cancers (skin, rectal, colon, lymphoma, leukemia, pancreas, stomach, esophagus, liver, lung) on overall mortality (OM) after secondary prostate cancer (PCa).Material and MethodsWithin the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) database, patients with 10 most common primary cancers and concomitant secondary PCa (diagnosed 2004–2016) were identified and were matched in 1:4 fashion (age, year at diagnosis, race/ethnicity, treatment type, TNM stage) with primary PCa controls. OM was compared between secondary and primary PCa patients and was stratified according to primary cancer type, as well as according to time interval between primary cancer vs. secondary PCa diagnoses.ResultsWe identified 24,848 secondary PCa patients (skin, n = 3,871; rectal, n = 798; colon, n = 3,665; lymphoma, n = 2,583; leukemia, n = 1,102; pancreatic, n = 118; stomach, n = 361; esophagus, n = 219; liver, n = 160; lung, n = 1,328) vs. 531,732 primary PCa patients. Secondary PCa characteristics were less favorable than those of primary PCa patients (PSA and grade), and smaller proportions of secondary PCa patients received active treatment. After 1:4 matching, all secondary PCa exhibited worse OM than primary PCa patients. Finally, subgroup analyses showed that the survival disadvantage of secondary PCa patients decreased with longer time interval since primary cancer diagnosis and subsequent secondary PCa.ConclusionPatients with secondary PCa are diagnosed with less favorable PSA and grade. Even after matching for PCa characteristics, secondary PCa patients still exhibit worse survival. However, the survival disadvantage is attenuated, when secondary PCa diagnosis is made after longer time interval, since primary cancer diagnosis.

In order to explore the colorectal cancer during perioperative period based on the structure model of artificial neural network, and to provide reference for the selection of perioperative nursing measures for patients with colorectal cancer, the artificial neural network models of rectal colon cancer patients with different nutritional interventions based on biomedicine were established. 264 patients with rectal colon cancer and accelerated rehabilitation nutritional nursing group. There were 132 patients in each group who were given different nutritional intervention measures to compare the quality of life after nursing. The results suggested that artificial neural network had a certain value in predicting the impact of different nutritional interventions on patients’ quality of life. In addition, the initial anal ventilation time, initial anal defecation time, infusion time and hospitalization time of patients in accelerated rehabilitation nursing group were shorter than those in routine nursing group, and the incidence of abdominal distension after operation was significantly lower than that of routine nursing group (P < 0.05). The cancer-related fatigue (P < 0.05). To sum up, artificial neural network can adapt to the non-linear effect of the model and has a strong advantage in survival analysis. Accelerated rehabilitation nursing intervention measures can promote the rehabilitation of patients with rectal colon cancer during perioperative period and improve the overall quality of life, which is worthy of clinical reference.

Intussusception is the invagination of a proximal segment of bowel into the lumen of an adjacent distal segment. It is a common condition in the paediatric age group although it rarely occurs in adults. Organic lesions in the bowel wall are the primary cause of adult intussusceptions with malignant neoplasms being the most common. However, we present a rare case of a 92-year-old man diagnosed with an intussusception of the sigmoid-rectal colon secondary to a diverticular stricture.

553 Background: The standard treatment for non-metastatic locally advanced (T4M0) non-rectal colon cancer is surgical resection followed by adjuvant chemotherapy. There is strong rational for the use of post-operative radiation therapy (RT) in T4 tumors since negative margins are difficult to obtain. Despite promising single institutional studies, a phase III clinical trial closed early due to poor accrual. The efficacy of adjuvant RT in these patients remains unknown. We hypothesized that patients at lower risk of micro-metastases would benefit most from aggressive local treatment. Methods: Cases were extracted from the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) database. Inclusion criteria: T4-anyN-M0 non-rectal colon cancers, diagnosed between 1988 and 2010. Exclusion criteria: rectal tumors and cases lacking staging information. Endpoints: overall survival (OS) and cancer-specific survival. Analyses were based on the Kaplan-Meier method and Cox proportional hazard model. Results: A total of 36,260 patients with T4 colon cancer were identified. Due to changes in the use of systemic adjuvant therapies, an initial analysis was performed to determine effect of adjuvant RT by year of diagnosis. Prior to 2003, adjuvant RT provided no significant improvement in OS. However, between 2003 and 2010, adjuvant RT improved OS by 8 months, from 48 to 56 months (HR: 0.83, p = 0.001). Within this latter period, adjuvant RT improved OS in three subsets of the population: in patients without nodal involvement (N0) (HR: 0.79, p = 0.009); in patients with primary tumor in the sigmoid colon (HR: 0.79, p=0.007); in patients with primary tumor size of 6cm or greater (HR: 0.74, p < 0.001). On multivariate analysis, the following categories remained significant: N stage, tumor grade, year of diagnosis, gender, primary site, and radiation therapy. Conclusions: Some patients with T4 non-rectal colon cancer appear to benefit from adjuvant RT after surgical resection of the primary tumor, especially node-negative tumors located within the sigmoid colon, larger than 6cm in diameter. This benefit has become more evident since the introduction of more effective adjuvant chemotherapy. Our conclusions require verification in a prospective study.
