Adductor Compartment STS- Does method of treatment affect outcome? Anup Pradhan, Yiu-Chung Cheung Birmingham Medical School, UK Supervisors: Mr Robert J Grimer Royal Orthopaedic Hospital, Birmingham, UK Dr Peter Ferguson Mount Sinai Hospital, Toronto, Canada
Background • Presents late • Often large • Neurovascular bundle close
Vessels preserved Big hole !
14 days later… 7 days later…
Aim of the project • To assess outcomes at ROH Birmingham • Survival • Local control • Complications • Function • To compare with a major North American Centre • To determine if different treatment methods affected above outcomes
Treatment philosophies in the two Specialist Regional Centres • ROH, Birmingham, UK • Surgery followed by RT (most cases) • MSH, Toronto • Surgery preceded by RT (most cases) • Frequent use of flaps
Method • Prospective databases • Study period (Jan 1990 – Jan 2001) • Collection of basic data and outcomes • demographic data • Size, grade (tumour) • Treatment methods • Survivorship for LR, OS • Wound complications • TESS for function
Exclusions • Metastases at diagnosis • Previous treatment elsewhere • Patients lost to follow up • Unfit for surgery
ROH MSH Median Age 55yrs Median Age 56.5yrs Patient age distribution P = 0.98
ROH MSH Median = 9.5cm Median = 13cm Tumour size at diagnosis P = 0.11
Factor ROH (n = 64) MSH (n = 62) P-value Mean (median) Age 55 (57) 55 (56.5) 0.98 Mean (median) Size (cm) 13.2 (12.8) 11.4 (9.5) 0.11 Proportion > 10cm 38 (59%) 25 (40%) 0.03 Proportion of high grade tumours 36 (56%) 35 (56%) 0.98 Adequate margins 46 (72%) 44 (71%) 0.91 Pre-operative radiotherapy NIL 26 (42%) Post-operative radiotherapy 60 (94%) 30 (48%) Use of muscle flaps NIL 26 (42%) Patient and Treatment Factors
Factor ROH (n = 64) MSH (n = 62) P-value Length of stay 10.4 11.6 0.50 Wound complications 27 (42%) 14 (23%) 0.019 Local Recurrence (5 Year) 28% 10% 0.015 Metastases (5 Year) 51.5% 38.8% 0.48 Overall survival (5 Year) 58% 74% 0.13 TESS score 72% 79% 0.18 Outcomes Oncological and Functional Outcomes
Comparing OS between the 2 centres P = 0.13 5yr OS = 74% MSH 5yr OS =57% ROH
Overall survival by grade Low/Intermediate grade P < 0.001 High grade
Overall survival by size P = 0.015 Size ≤ 10cm Size > 10cm
Comparison of OS between pre and post RT groups (combined data from both centres) Postop RT Preop RT P = 0.55
Comparing LR between the 2 centres P = 0.0145 5YLR = 10% 5YLR = 28%
Summaryof Overall Findings • OS rate = 66% at 5 yrs • Significant factors • High Grade [HR 5.6, CI 2.3 – 13.5] • Size (< 10cm) [HR 0.41, CI 0.21 – 0.81] • LR rate = 21% at 5yrs • Significant factors • Margin • Functional outcome • Average TESS score – 76% • Worse TESS - wound complications(65% vs.79%) - high grade (70% vs. 84%) • No association with RT timing
Conclusion • OS – unaffected by treatment strategies • RT Timing – no affect on OS, LR, and function • LR – Higher rate in ROH • Positive margins (28%) • quality of RT
