Abstract

Aim: To determine the prognostic value of tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes (TILs) in colon adenocarcinomas.

Materials and methods: The study was performed on 180 paraffin blocks of operation material from patients diagnosed with adenocarcinoma of the colon, treated at the Kyiv City Oncology Center in 2013-2018. TILs were counted on histological slides stained with hematoxylin-eosin. By TILs count percentage in tumor slides, the samples were divided into three groups: 0-9% TILs (n = 65); 10-39% TILs (n = 79); and > 40% TILs (n = 36).

Results: Kaplan - Meyer estimate showed that the difference in overall survival between groups was significant (p = 0.001). Multivariate Cox's proportional hazard regression model analysis evidenced on significantly better overall survival rates in groups with moderate TILs percentage (hazard ratio 0.54, 95% CI 0.30-0.97, p = 0.042) and high TILs percentage (hazard ratio 0.36, 95% CI 0.13-0.99, p = 0.049), respectively, as compared with low TILs percentage group.

Conclusion: TILs content can be considered as an independent prognostic factor for colon adenocarcinoma and used as an additional tool in routine practice of pathologists.

肿瘤浸润淋巴细胞在结肠腺癌中作为易于获得的预后工具。

目的:探讨肿瘤浸润淋巴细胞(til)在结肠腺癌中的预后价值。材料和方法:研究对象为2013-2018年在基辅市肿瘤中心接受治疗的结肠腺癌患者的180块石蜡手术材料。在苏木精-伊红染色的组织学切片上计数TILs。根据TILs在肿瘤载玻片中的计数百分比将样本分为三组:0-9% TILs (n = 65);10-39% TILs (n = 79);> 40%的til (n = 36)。结果:Kaplan - Meyer估计显示两组间总生存率差异显著(p = 0.001)。多因素Cox比例风险回归模型分析表明，与低TILs百分比组相比，中等TILs百分比组(风险比0.54,95% CI 0.30-0.97, p = 0.042)和高TILs百分比组(风险比0.36,95% CI 0.13-0.99, p = 0.049)的总生存率显著提高。结论:TILs含量可作为结肠腺癌的独立预后因素，并可作为病理学家常规诊疗的附加工具。
