Impact of Diabetes Mellitus on the Prognosis of Patients with Hepatocellular Carcinoma after Curative Hepatectomy

Abstract: Background: The influence of diabetes mellitus (DM) on the prognosis of patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) remains controversial. Here we investigated the impact of DM on the prognosis of such patients after curative hepatectomy. Methods: A consecutive cohort of 505 patients with HCC (134 with DM, 371 without) underwent curative hepatectomy were retrospectively evaluated. Postoperative morbidity and mortality, overall survival (OS) and disease-free survival (DFS) were compared between patients with o… Show more

“…Wang et al reported a meta-analysis including 21 studies with total 9,767 HCC patients, and showed that DM is an independent predictor for decreased overall survival (HR 1.55; 95% CI 1.27–1.91; p = 0.001) and disease-free survival (HR 2.15; 95% CI 1.75–2.63; p = 0.001). [12] However, subgroup analyses in that study further disclosed that the effect was only seen in patients receiving hepatic resection (HR 1.91; 95% CI 1.21–3.00; p = 0.005), but not in subjects treated with other modalities.…”

“…It is also reported that history of diabetes is associated with deaths from HCC [13]. Patients with DM showed significantly lower overall survival than those without DM [14, 15]. Thus, a specific group of people with HCC and T2DM should be observed.…”

“…[31] Although our recent studies suggest that tumor size ≥10 cm (originally referred to as “huge HCC”) [17] is a risk factor of poor OS after HR, [14,15,23,32,33] earlier work reported the same result for tumors ≥7 [34] or ≥8 cm. [35] In the present study, Cox proportional hazard analysis identified a single-tumor >8 cm as a risk factor of poor OS.…”
