Abstract
AIM: Proactive detection and treatment strategies have achieved encouraging survival outcomes for patients with early peritoneal metastases (PM), but these costly and invasive approaches can only be applied to selected high-risk patients. This meta-analysis aimed to identify the risk factors for metachronous PM after curative surgery for colorectal cancer (CRC). METHOD: The study was registered at PROSPERO (CRD42020219187). Databases were searched for studies comparing clinical and histopathological characteristics between patients with metachronous peritoneal metastases from colorectal cancer (pmCRC) and patients without (non-pmCRC). RESULTS: Thirty-six studies were included. Metachronous PM were positively associated with perforation (OR 1.920; 95% CI 1.144-3.223; P = 0.014), poor differentiation (OR 2.291; 1.603-3.275; P < 0.001), T4 (OR 2.897; 1.248-6.726; P = 0.013), N1-2 (OR 3.429; 2.684-4.381; P < 0.001), mucinous adenocarcinoma (OR 4.175; 1.798-9.692; P = 0.001), obstruction (OR 4.467; 1.919-10.398; P = 0.001), synchronous ovarian metastases (OR 5.005; 1.140-21.977; P = 0.033), positive peritoneal carcinoembryonic antigen mRNA (OR 9.472; 3.643-24.631; P < 0.001), elevated serum carcinoembryonic antigen (preoperative group, OR 3.545, 1.486-8.459, P = 0.004; postoperative group, OR 13.673, 2.222-84.129, P = 0.005), elevated serum cancer antigen 19-9 (preoperative group, OR 5.281, 2.146-12.994, P < 0.001; postoperative group, OR 18.646, 6.429-54.083, P < 0.001) and positive peritoneal cytology (OR 25.884; 11.372-58.913; P < 0.001). CONCLUSION: These evidence-based risk factors are conducive to designing early detection and proactive treatment strategies, enabling precision medicine.
