Abstract
Purpose: The C-reactive protein-albumin-lymphocyte (CALLY) index is a novel score that offers a good reflection of nutritional status, inflammatory response, and immune system status. The CALLY index is reported to correlate with the prognosis of various carcinomas. The purpose of the present study was to investigate the association between the CALLY index and the short-term prognosis of obstructive colorectal cancer managed with a colonic stent.
Methods: The subjects of this retrospective study were 263 patients who underwent colorectal resection after colonic stenting for obstructive colorectal cancer between 2016 and 2023. Patients were classified into a group with a low CALLY index (CALLY-L group, n = 85) and a group with a high (CALLY-H group, n = 178) CALLY index.
Results: The CALLY-L group had greater blood loss (53 mL vs 20 mL, p = 0.002) and higher poor performance status (PS3; 20% vs 10.1%, p = 0.033), open surgery (21.2% vs 7.3%, p = 0.001), distant metastases (41.2% vs 20.8%, p = 0.01), and postoperative complications (30.6% vs. 18.5%, p = 0.039) than the CALLY-H group. Multivariate analysis identified a prolonged operative time (odds ratio 1.983, 95% confidence interval 1.013-3.881; p = 0.045), greater blood loss (odds ratio 2.572, 95% confidence interval 1.291-5.129; p = 0.007) and a low CALLY index (odds ratio 1.961, 95% confidence interval 1.013-3.795; p = 0.045) as independent predictors of complications.
Conclusion: The CALLY index may be a useful predictor of postoperative complications of obstructive colorectal cancer.
期刊介绍:
Surgery Today is the official journal of the Japan Surgical Society. The main purpose of the journal is to provide a place for the publication of high-quality papers documenting recent advances and new developments in all fields of surgery, both clinical and experimental. The journal welcomes original papers, review articles, and short communications, as well as short technical reports("How to do it").
The "How to do it" section will includes short articles on methods or techniques recommended for practical surgery. Papers submitted to the journal are reviewed by an international editorial board. Field of interest: All fields of surgery.
