Abstract

Objectives: This study evaluates current trends in incidence, clinical outcomes and factors predictive of survival in children with hepatoblastoma (HB) VSports手机版. .

Methods: The Surveillance, Epidemiology and End Results (SEER) database was queried for the period 1973-2009 for all patients aged <20 years with HB. V体育安卓版.

Results: A total of 606 patients were identified. The age-adjusted incidence was 0. 13 patients per 100 000 in 2009. An annual percentage change of 2. 18% (95% confidence interval (CI) 1. 10-3. 27; P < 0. 05) was seen over the study period. Overall survival rates at 5, 10 and 20 years were 63%, 61% and 59%, respectively. Ten-year survival rates significantly improved in patients with resectable disease who underwent operative treatment in comparison with those with non-resectable HB (86% versus 39%; P < 0 V体育ios版. 0001). Multivariate analysis showed surgical treatment (hazard ratio (HR) = 0. 23, 95% CI 0. 17-0. 31; P < 0. 0001), Hispanic ethnicity (HR = 0. 61, 95% CI 0. 43-0. 89; P = 0. 01), local disease at presentation (HR = 0. 43, 95% CI 0. 29-0. 63; P < 0. 0001) and age < 5 years (HR = 0. 63, 95% CI 0. 41-0. 95; P < 0. 03) to be independent prognostic factors of survival. .

Conclusions: The incidence of paediatric HB has increased over time. Hepatoblastoma is almost exclusively seen in children aged < 5 years. When HB presents after the age of 5 years, the prognosis is most unfavourable. Tumour extirpation markedly improves survival in paediatric patients with local disease VSports最新版本. .
