Effects of surgical management for gastrointestinal stromal tumor patients with liver metastasis on survival outcomes.

ABSTRACT:

Purpose

To investigate the effect of surgical resection on survival in gastrointestinal stromal tumors synchronous liver metastasis (GIST-SLM) and to develop clinically usable predictive models for overall survival (OS) and cancer-specific survival (CSS) in patients.

Methods

We identified patients in the SEER database diagnosed with GISTs from 2010 to 2019. We used propensity score matching (PSM) to balance the bias between the Surgery and No surgery groups. Kaplan-Meier(K-M) analysis was used to detect differences in OS and CSS between the two groups. The nomogram to predict 1, 3, and 5-year OS and CSS were developed and evaluated.

Results

After PSM, 228 patients were included in this study. There were significant differences in 1, 3, and 5-year OS and CSS between th
