Among 238 patients with Non-Hodgkin's lymphoma received radiotherapy at Yonsei Cancer center, Yonsei University Medical College, from 1970 to 1981, 30 patients presented with localized(Stage I&II ) gastrointestinal lymphomas. Retrospective analysis of these 30 cases in an attempt to evaluate the influence of various prognostic factors and the effectiveness of therapy is presented. Overall 5 year survival rate of 30 cases of primary gastrointestinal lymphoma was $48\%$. Bulk of residual disease after initial surgery and stage were significant prognostic factors. Stage I with small residual disease treated with post-op irradiation achieved $100\%$ 5 year survival rate. So above group is considered curable with surgery and post-op irradiation. $80\%$ of Stage II with large residual disease were died with intra-abdominal local tumor control failure. Stage II with small residual disease showed $31.5\%$ 5 year survival rate. Non of them died with local failure. So, we suggest that complete surgical resection of tumor mass should be attempted initially in the management of localized gastrointestinal lypmhomas and systemic chemotherapy is needed in addition to post-op irradiation in the cases of Stage II and large residual disease after initial surgery.

Background: Although adjuvant chemotherapy is a standard treatment in stage III colon cancer, its benefit is not as clear for stage II patients. In this retrospective analysis, we aimed to evaluate the survival of patients with low-risk stage II colon cancer, the efficacy of adjuvant chemotherapy in high-risk stage II colon cancer patients, and prognostic factors in stage II disease. Materials and Methods: One hundred and seventeen patients who were diagnosed with stage II colon cancer between January 2006 and December 2011 were included in the study. Patients were stratified into two groups as being low-risk and high-risk according to risk factors for stage II disease. Adjuvant 5-fluorouracil-based chemotherapy were administered to the patients with risk factors. Results: Ninety-four patients were treated with adjuvant chemotherapy due to high risk factors and 23 were monitored without treatment. Median follow-up time was 43 months. In terms of disease free survival and overall survival, adjuvant chemotherapy did not provide a statistically significant difference. Univariate analysis demonstrated that bowel obstruction was the major risk factor for shortened disease-free survival, while bowel perforation and perineural invasion were both negative prognostic factors for overall survival. Conclusions: The recommendation of adjuvant chemotherapy for stage II colon cancer is not clear. In our study, it was found that adjuvant chemotherapy did not contribute to survival in high-risk stage II patients. Due to the fact that prognosis of stage II patients is good, many more patients will be needed for statistically significant differences in survival. Adjuvant chemotherapy containing 5 fluorouracil is being used to high-risk stage II patients although it is not a standard treatment approach.

Radiotherapy result of 162 patients with stage I, II intermediate grade non-Hodgkin's Iymphoma was analyzed to clarify the role and limit of radiotherapy. Of 68 initial failures, 38.2% occurred in field and 61.8% occurred out of field. Proportion of in-field and out-of-field failures in stage I was 30.0% and 70.0%, respectively with involved field treatment and was 43.8% and 56.2% with extended field treatment, respectively; in stage ll , was 16.7% and 83.3%, 41.7% and 58.3%, respectively. The disease free suwival rate at S years was 48.1% for all patients and was 50.3% and 40.4% for patients with stage I and II, respectively. The survival was significantly different by stage. Bulky tumors (${\geq}10$ cm) and B symptoms didn't influence prognosis significantly. The 5 year disease free suwival with extended or wide field was better than that with involved field especially in stage I. Overall survival rates for all patients, patients with stage 1, and ll disease were 57.7%, 65.3% and 52.2% , respectively, after survival gain of the salvage chemotherapy was combined. But the overall survival of stage I disease was not better than that of stage II disease. Thus, extended field was required to achieve better disease free survival and relapsed cases might gain with chemotherapy.

Objectives: This study evaluated the predictive factors for survival of patients with oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) and investigated the overall and disease-specific survival (DSS) outcomes. Materials and Methods: A total of 67 consecutive patients who underwent surgery for OSCC from January 2006 to November 2014 were included in this study. Patients were classified according to age, sex, pTNM stages, primary sites, smoking and alcohol drinking habits, depth of invasion, perineural and lymphovascular invasion, cell differentiation and postoperative radiotherapy. Kaplan-Meier methods were used to estimate the survival categorized by patient groups. Cox regression methods were used to investigate the main independent predictors of survival. Results: Nineteen patients died of OSCC during follow-up periods. Another five patients died of other diseases including lung adenocarcinoma (n=1), cerebral infarction (n=1), general weakness (n=2), and pneumonia (n=1). The tongue (n=16) was the most common site for primary origin, followed by buccal mucosa (n=15), mandibular gingiva (n=15), maxillary gingiva (n=9), floor of mouth (n=9), retromolar trigone (n=2), and palate (n=1). Eleven patients had pTNM stage I disease, followed by stage II (n=22) and stage IV (n=34). No patients had pTNM stage III disease in this study. The overall survival of all patients was 64.2% and the DSS was 71.6%. DSS of patients with stage I and II disease was 100%. Stepwise Cox regression showed the two predictors for DSS were pTNM stage (P<0.0001, odds ratio=19.633) and presence of metastatic lymph nodes (P=0.0004, odds ratio=0.1039). Conclusion: OSCC has been associated with poor prognosis; however, there were improved survival outcomes compared with past studies. Advanced-stage disease and presence of metastatic lymph nodes were associated with poorer survival compared with early-stage OSCC and absence of neck node metastasis. Stage I and II OSCC were associated with excellent survival results in this study.
The role of adjuvant chemotherapy in patients with stage II colon cancer remains a controversial issue. Adjuvant chemotherapy aims to eliminate any micrometastatic disease that may have been missed, at the time of surgery. Although one prospective study showed a small but statistically significant benefit with respect to the overall survival for those who received adjuvant chemotherapy, multiple pooled data did not demonstrate any benefit of this therapy in patients with stage II colon cancer. Current national and international guidelines for the adjuvant treatment of stage II colon dose not advise routine implementation of adjuvant chemotherapy, but rather recommend selective use of this therapy for patients with high risk of recurrence. High risk features for recurrence include T4 disease, poorly differentiated histology, presence of lymphovascular invasion, presence of perineural invasion, inadequate retrieval of lymph nodes, bowel obstruction, localized perforation, or positive margins. More recently, prediction tools using gene expression cancer profiles are proposed to identify patients who are most likely to have recurrence and therefore may benefit from postoperative chemotherapy in stage II colon cancer. These novel methods together with conventional prognosticators, will allow us to implement more optimized personalizing adjuvant therapy in these patients.
A total of eighty one patients with resected stage II and IIIA non-small cell lung cancer treated with postoperative adjuvant radiation therapy between Jan. 1971 and Dec. 1990 were retrospectively analysed to evaluate whether postoperative radiation therapy improves survival. Patterns of failure and prognostic factors were also analysed. The 5 year overall and disease free survival rate were 40.5%, 43.4% and median survival 30 months. The 5 year actuarial survival rates by stage II and IIIA were 53.9% and 36.2%. Loco-regional failure rate was 14.7% and distant metastasis rate was 33.3% and both 4%. Statistically significant prognostic factor affecting survival was presence of mediastinal lymph node metastasis[N2]. This retrospective study suggests that postoperative radiation therapy in resected stage II and IIIA non-small cell lung cancer can reduce loco-regional recurrence and may improve survival rate as compared with other studies which were treated by surgery alone.

Purpose: We analyzed our malignant peripheral nerve sheath tumor (MPNST) cases to find out their oncologic results following by each treatment modalities. Materials and Methods: Thirty four patients with MPNST were registered in Korea Cancer Center Hospital from Feb. 1986 to Nov. 1996. Seventeen cases were male and 17, female. Average age was 41 years (range 18 to 74). Location of the tumor was as follows; 17 in lower extremity, 11 upper extremity, 4 trunk, and 2 retroperitoneum. Following the AJC classification, stage IA were 2 cases, stage IIA 2, stage IIB 6, stage III 16 and stage IV 8. Twenty six patients took operations and adjuvant chemotherapy and/or radiation therapy, 3 operation only and 3 adjuvant chemotherapy or radiation therapy. Average follow up period was 33.5 months (5.6 to 146.1). Kaplan-Meiyer method was done for survival curve, and log rank test for comparison analysis. Results: Fourteen cases were continuous disease free, 2 no evidence of disease, 2 alive with disease and 14 dead of disease states at final follow up. Actual 5-year and 10-year survival rates were 53.5%, 35.7%. Local recurrence rate after operation was 24.1%. 5-year survival rates of stage I/II/III were 100/85.7/55.9% and 2-year survival rate of stage IV was 14.3% (p=0.04). In 21 cases operated with stage II-III, wide margin (15cases) had 76.0% 5-year survival rate, and marginal or intralesional marigin (6cases) had 40.0%. The actual 5-year survival rate of the group which were done 4 or more cycles chemotherapy (8cases) was 71.4% and the actual 3-year survival rate less than 4cycles chemotherapy (6cases) was 83.3% (p=0.96). In 19 cases operated with stage II-III and which had no radiotherapy, marginal or intralesional margin (5cases) had 3 cases of local recurrences (60.0%), though wide margin (14cases) had 4 cases recurrences (28.6%). There was no local recurrence in 8cases which had pre-or post-operative radiotherapy. Conclusions: Surgical margin is an important factor in local recurrence. Resection margin has a tendency to influence the survival despite insufficient statistical significance. Conventional chemotherapy has no defnite statistical sigficance in the effect on local control and survival. Preoperative and postoperative radiotherapy has some positive effect on local control.

Purpose: To analyze treatment modalities and prognostic factors in patients with Stage I-II endometrial stromal sarcoma (ESS). Materials and Methods: Twenty four patients (nineteen with low-grade ESS [LGESS] and five with high-grade ESS [HGESS]) were assessed retrospectively in terms of general characteristics, prognostic factors, treatment methods and survival. Results: Twenty patients were at Stage I and three were at Stage II. The stage of one patient could not be determined. With respect to age and comorbidity, no statistically significant difference was found among disease-free survival (DFS) (p=0.990; p=0.995). However, DFS was significantly shorter in Stage II than Stage I patients (p=0.002). It was also significantly shorter in HGESS patients than in LGESS patients (p=0.000). There was no statistically significant differences among the overall survival (OVS) times of patients with respect to age at diagnosis and comorbid disease (p=0.905; p=0.979) but OVS was significantly shorter in patients with HGESS (p=0.00) and Stage II disease (p=0.001). No statistically significant difference was found with respect to OVS between patients who received radiotherapy (RT) and those who did not receive RT (p=0.055). It was not statistically possible to include other treatment modalities in the analysis because of the small sample size. Conclusions: Grade and stage of a tumour were found to be the most important prognostic factors. It was not possible to determine the optimal surgical method and the effect of adjuvant treatment since the number of cases was insufficient.
Purpose : Patients with esophageal cancer treated with surgery plus postoperative radiotherapy or radiation alone were retrospectively analyzed. Method : From August 1980 to June 1992, 93 patients who were treated with 30 Gy or more in the Department of Therapeutic Radiology were evaluated. Median age was 59 years. Ninety one were male and remaining 2 were female. Patients with stage II, III and IV disease were 25, 62 and 6 respectively. Thirteen of the tumor were located in upper one third, 56 in middle one third and 24 in lower one third. Forty three patients had tumors 5cm or less in size and remaining 50 had greater than 5cm. Of those 93 patients, 41 were treated with surgery plus postoperative radiotherapy and 52 with radiation alone. Dose of radiation ranged from 34 to 66.6 Gy. Follow up period was 12 to 61 months. Results : Stage of the tumor was the most important prognostic factor of the evaluated factors. Median survival for entire group of patients was 12 months. Median survival for patients treated with surgery plus postoperative radiotherapy and radiation alone were 15 and 10 months, respectively. There was no difference of 2 year survival. Median survival was 21 months for Stage II and 10 months for Stage m disease. In Stage II disease, that was 21 months for postoperative group and 17.5 months for radiation alone group. Five year survival were $27.5\%$ and $9\%$, respectively. Conclusion : This study showed that the result of surgery plus postoperative radiotherapy was not different from that of radiation alone despite of slightly longer median survival in postoperative group. Also stage of the disease was the most important prognostic factor.
Purpose: The aim of this study was to investigate the impact of preoperative low body mass index (BMI) on both the short- and long-term outcomes in patients with gastric cancer. Materials and Methods: A total of 510 patients with gastric cancer were divided into the following 3 groups: low BMI group (${\leq}18.5kg/m^2$, n=51), normal BMI group ($18.6-24.9kg/m^2$, n=308), and high BMI group (${\geq}25.0kg/m^2$, n=151). Results: There were significantly more stage III/IV patients in the low BMI group than in the other groups (P=0.001). Severe postoperative complications were more frequent (P=0.010) and the survival was worse (P<0.001) in the low BMI group. The subgroup analysis indicated that survival was worse in the low BMI group of the stage I/II subgroup (P=0.008). The severe postoperative complication rate was higher in the low BMI group of the stage III/IV subgroup (P=0.001), although the recurrence rate and survival did not differ in the stage III/IV subgroup among all the BMI groups. Low BMI was an independent poor prognostic factor in the stage I/II subgroup (disease-free survival: hazard ratio [HR], 13.521; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.186-154.197; P=0.036 and overall survival: HR, 5.130; 95% CI, 1.644-16.010; P=0.005), whereas low BMI was an independent risk factor for severe postoperative complications in the stage III/IV subgroup (HR, 17.158; 95% CI, 1.383-212.940; P=0.027). Conclusions: Preoperative low BMI in patients with gastric cancer adversely affects survival among those with stage I/II disease and increases the severe postoperative complication rate among those with stage III/IV disease.
