Comparison of Vascular Invasion With Lymph Node Metastasis as a Prognostic Factor in Stage I-III Colon Cancer: An Observational Cohort Study

Purpose: This study aimed to evaluate the prognostic impact of vascular invasion (VI) in comparison with that of lymph node metastasis (LNM) in non-metastatic colon cancer.Methods: Patients who underwent curative surgery for stage I-III colon cancer were divided into four groups depending on the sta...

Group III was subdivided according to the nodal (N) stage (Group IIIA: VI-/N1; Group IIIB: VI-/N2). Oncological outcomes were compared between Groups II and III.Results: In total, 793 non-metastatic colon cancer patients were included. Group II [hazard ratio (HR) 2.34, 1.01–5.41] and Group III (HR 1.91, 1.26–2.89) were independently associated with poor disease-free survival (DFS). The 5-year DFS rates were comparable in Groups II (71.6%) and III (72.5%) (P = 0.637). When Group III was subdivided into Groups IIIA and IIIB, DFS deteriorated in the following order: Groups IIIA, II, and IIIB. The 5-year DFS rates were 79.7, 71.6, and 61.4% in Groups IIIA, II, and IIIB, respectively. Group II had a tendency toward early recurrence. The 1- and 2-year DFS rates were 76.3 and 71.6% in Group II and 88.3 and 79.8% in Group III, respectively (P = 0.067 and 0.247).
