  1. Gastric lymphoma: changing role of surgery Joint Hospital Surgical Grand Round Dr Bonita HK Mark RHTSK

  2. Gastric lymphoma • What is gastric lymphoma? • Why do we need to know about it? • What is the evidence in literature? • How to treat? • Whento operate / not to operate?

  3. Lymphoma Hodgkin’s Non-Hodgkin’s Extranodal Nodal MALT Splenic GI Tract Others

  4. Working formulation (NCI 1982)

  5. B-cell lymphoma Lymphoblastic Small lymphocytic Lymphoplasmacytoid Mantle-cell Follicular center (follicular, diffuse, small) Marginal-zone (nodal, extranodal, splenic) Diffuse large B-cell Burkitt’s / Burkitt-like T cell lymphoma Lymphoblastic Mycosis fungoides/ sezary syndrome Peripheral T-cell Revised European-American Lymphoma (REAL) (WHO 1993)

  6. MALT lymphoma • MALT (mucosa associated lymphoid tissue) lymphoma • First described in 1983 • Extra-nodal marginal zone B-cell lymphoma • Indolent (low grade) • Most common in GI tract (50%) • Stomach mostly involved (50-70% of GI MALT) • 4% primary gastric tumours • 40-50% primary gastric lymphomas

  7. MALT lymphoma

  8. MALT lymphoma – clinical features

  9. MALT lymphoma - diagnosis • Upper endoscopy • Biopsy of suspicious area • Ulceration • Nodular mass • Diffuse infiltration • Antral biopsy for H pylori • Endoscopic ultrasound • Depth of tumour invasion • Perigastric LN enlargement • CT chest, abdomen and pelvis/ PET scan • Bone marrow biopsy

  10. MALT lymphoma - endoscopy

  11. MALT lymphoma - endoscopy

  12. MALT lymphoma – endoscopic US Serosal involvement Superficial (submucosal) involvement

  13. MALT lymphoma – endoscopic US Perigastric LN enlargement

  14. Musshoff’s modification of Ann Arbor system MALT lymphoma - staging

  15. H pylori eradication therapy • Low grade MALT lymphoma: stage I or II disease with slow progression • H pylori in 90% gastric MALT lymphoma • 2/3 lymphoma regresses after eradication • Prognosis good: 10-year survival 80-90%

  16. H pylori eradication therapy Annals of Surgery, Vol 240(1), July 2004, p28-37

  17. Predictive factors for poor response to H pylori eradication therapy • Perigastric LN involvement (stage II₁) • 0% with stage II vs. 79% with stage I (Multicentre French study, Gut 2001; 48:297-303) • 33% LN +ve vs. 76% LN –ve (Am J Gastroenterology 2002; 97:292-297) • A t (11:18) chromosomal translocation • review of 111 patients by Liu et al: 73% vs. 4% (Gastroenterology 2002; 122: 1286-1294) • H pylori -ve

  18. What is the best Rx modality?

  19. Implications to surgeons

  20. Low grade vs high grade

  21. Early vs advanced disease

  22. Literature review

  23. Surgery for gastric lymphoma • Brands et al reviewed 100 papers analyzing 3157 patients with all stages of gastric lymphoma • Treated from 1974 to 1995 • The overall survival during that time period ↑from 37% to 87%.

  24. Rev Esp Enferm Dig 2006; 98:180-188

  25. Review article Ann Surg 2004; 240:28-37

  26. Survival rate? Perforation? Haemorrhage? Recurrence?

  27. Chemotherapy/RT without surgery • Aviles et al in 1991 • 52 patients with stage I or II gastriclymphoma • Prospectivelyrandomized • Chemo vs. surgery + chemo • Relapse-free survival and overall survival were equivalent • Five-year overall survival75% in both groups • Milan series by Ferreri et al in 1999 • 83patients with stage I or II high-grade gastric lymphoma • Reviewed retrospectively • Chemo/ chemo + RT vs. surgery +/- adjuvant • No difference in survival • 5-year survival of 82%, 10-year survival of 64% (non-surgical)

  28. Chemotherapy/RT without surgery • GermanMulticenter Study Group by Koch et al in 2001 • Prospectivenonrandomized study • 185 patients with stage I or II • 1992 -1996 • Surgery (gastrectomy + RT or + chemo+RT) :106 • Non-surgery (RT or chemo +RT): 79 • No significant difference in survival (overall 5-year survival rate: 82% vs. 84%)

  29. Chemotherapy/RT without surgery • Aviles et al • Noperforation • Bleeding: 3 (non-surgical) vs. 2 (surgical) • GermanMulticenter Study Group by Koch et al • Perforation: 1 (non-surgical) vs. none (surgical) • No bleeding

  30. Chemotherapy/RT without surgery • GermanMulticenter Study Group by Koch et al • 6 recurred after surgical Rx: 3 systemically, 3 loco-regionally • 7 recurred after non-surgical Rx: all locally • Ferreri et al • 17/62 recurred after surgical Rx: 2 locally and 15 systemically • 4/19 complete responders recurred: 2 locally and 2systemically • Recurrence patterns may differ: • Surgical: tend to recursystemically • Non-surgical: more localrecurrence

  31. Retrospective review J Formos Med Assoc 2006; 105(3): 194-202

  32. Retrospective review • Objective: • To evaluate the outcome of PGL (except MALT lymphoma) treated with chemo alone or surgery followed by chemo • Methods: • 1986-2003 • 55 PGL patients (MALT lymphoma excluded) • Localized 32 (IE 15 + IIE 17) • Advanced 23 • Chemo alone vs. Combination (surgery + chemo)

  33. Retrospective review • Results: • Complete remission no sig. difference: • Chemo: 84.2% • Combination: 92.3% • 5-year overall survival no sig. difference: • Chemo: 73.4% • Combination: 87.5% • 5-year disease-free survival no sig. difference: • Chemo: 68.4% • Combination: 84.6%

  34. Retrospective review • Post-chemo life-threatening haemorrhage: • 5/32 (15.6%) in localized group (stage IE/IIE1) • 4 chemo + 1 combination • 9/23 in advanced group • 6 chemo + 3 combination • 5 of them developed perforation and died • Grade 3-4 neutropenia: • Chemo: 13.2 • Combination: 17.6% • Thrombocytopenia: • Chemo: 2.6% • Combination: 5.9%

  35. Retrospective review - conclusion • Clinical outcome of localized PGL treated by chemo alone is comparable to that treated by combination therapy • In terms of : tumour response, disease-free survival and overall survival • Bulky tumours: tumour bleeding/perforation • Debulking surgery followed by chemo can offer better tumour control / ↓complication

  36. In summary

  37. Gastric lymphoma Rx • MALT lymphoma • H pylori eradication therapy • High-grade (non-MALT) • Chemo +/-RT • Surgery • For bulky tumourto prevent bleeding/perforation • For local residual disease post chemo/RT • For palliation of symptoms like obstruction

  38. THANK YOU!

  39. Some additional information For discussion

  40. Gastric lymphoma grading

  41. International prognostic index • Age: <60 years vs. >60 years • Serum LDH: normal vs. elevated • Performance status:0 or 1 vs. 2-4 • Stage: stage I / II vs. stage III / IV • Extranodal site involvement: 0 or 1 vs. 2-4

  42. Performance status

  43. Time interval for response • 4 weeks to 12 months • Subgroup with high success rate (confined to gastric wall, no translocation, no LN): await for 12 months • Subgroup with low success rate: consider other therapy earlier e.g. 3-6 months

  44. Retrospective study

  45. Retrospective study • Objective: • To assess whether surgical excision is still a valid therapeutic option • Patients and method: • A retrospective study • 1974 - 1999 • 69 consecutive patients stage IE-IIE • 65 (94.2%) gastrectomy • Mean age: 62.6 years (28-85)

  46. Retrospective study 5-year survivalprobability (SP): 87.93% Rev Esp Enferm Dig 2006; 98(3): 180-188

  47. Retrospective study • Statisticalanalysis: • Ann Arbor stage: • Gastric wall invasion, H. pylori , margin: • Histological type: borderline significance (p = 0.056)
