Core Tip |
Primary malignant melanoma of esophagus (PMME) is a rare malignant disease. We comprehensively analyzed the clinicopathological characteristics of 290 Chinese patients with PMME. Only about half of the patients were accurately diagnosed before surgery. The positive rate of lymph node metastasis (LNM) was 45.3% even the tumor confined to the submucosal layer. The median overall survival (OS) and disease-free survival were 11.0 mo and 5.3 mo, respectively. Cox analysis showed that both pT stage and LNM were the independent prognostic factors for OS, while only advanced pTNM stage was a significant independent indicator of poor RFS in patients with PMME. |
