Prevalence and outcomes of extrahepatic XXXX associated with @entity157 in a Korean population.

@entity1 @entity5 @entity14 @entity157 @entity204
BACKGROUND: With @entity157 ( @entity157 ) screening and treatment, the incidence of diagnosing a case of extrahepatic @entity5 (EHPM) in @entity1 with @entity157 has increased. This study aimed to elucidate the prevalence and clinical outcomes of EHPM in @entity1 with @entity157 who underwent curative resection in Korea. METHODS: The clinical data of 250 @entity1 with @entity157 who underwent curative resection in our hospital from May 2003 to December 2011 were retrospectively analyzed. The clinical features, overall survival, and causes of @entity204 were compared between @entity1 with @entity157 with or without EHPM. RESULTS: The prevalence of EHPM among the 250 @entity1 was 13.2% (n   =   33). The most common site of EHPM was the colorectal (n   =   10), followed by the stomach (n   =   9), breasts (n   =   4), and kidneys (n   =   3). @entity1 with EHPM were significantly older, and they presented with higher rates of comorbidities, a different etiology of @entity157 , and better liver function than @entity1 without EHPM. Interestingly, overall survival was significantly lower in the EHPM group, which more frequently displayed extrahepatic causes of @entity204 . Moreover, the presence of EHPM was an independent factor for overall survival in the study population. CONCLUSIONS: The prevalence of EHPM in @entity1 with @entity157 who underwent curative surgical resection was 13.2% in Korea, with @entity14 comprising most EHPMs (88%). The @entity1 with EHPM displayed significantly worse survival because of extrahepatic causes of @entity204 , which should be considered in the management of @entity157 in the future.
