摘要

Background

Papillary adenocarcinoma (Pap) is a relatively rare histological subtype of differentiated adenocarcinoma, and its biological behavior has not been fully elucidated. The present study aimed to clarify the clinicopathological characteristics of Pap.

Methods

This study retrospectively included 1701 patients with differentiated-type gastric cancer who underwent gastrectomy at our institution between 2009 and 2021. Clinicopathological characteristics, recurrence patterns, and survival outcomes were compared between the two groups.

Results

Patients in the Pap group were older and showed higher rates of venous—and lymphatic invasion, as well as more advanced clinical and pathological stages. In the multivariate analysis of cumulative recurrence, histological type was identified as an independent predictor (HR 2.051, p = 0.037). The most common initial site of recurrence was the liver in both groups, with a significantly higher incidence observed in the Pap group (p < 0.001). In the multivariate analysis of overall survival, histological type was also identified as an independent prognostic factor (HR 1.962, p = 0.044).

Conclusions

Pap showed poorer survival than the Tub group, with a particularly higher incidence of liver metastasis recurrence.
