Abstract
OBJECTIVES
It is unclear whether renal insufficiency (RI) itself is a risk factor for adverse outcomes after gastric endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD). We aimed to evaluate the safety and efficacy of gastric ESD in patients with and without RI using propensity score-matching analysis.
METHODS
In all, 4775 patients with 4775 early gastric cancer lesions undergoing ESD were analyzed. 1:1 propensity score-matching was performed between patients with and without RI using 12 variables. After matching, logistic regression and survival analyses were performed for short- and long-term outcomes of ESD, respectively.
RESULTS
The matching yielded 188 pairs of patients with and without RI. In both univariable and multivariable analyses, the presence of RI was not significantly associated with postprocedural bleeding (unadjusted odds ratio 1.81, 95% confidence interval 0.74-4.42; adjusted odds ratio 1.86, 95% confidence interval 0.74-4.65, respectively). When RI patients were subclassified into patients with estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) 30-59 mL/min/1.73 m2 and eGFR <30 mL/min/1.73 m2 , no significant differences in bleeding rates were found compared to their matched controls in both groups. Perforation, en bloc resection, en bloc and R0 resection, and curative resection rates of RI patients were 2.1%, 98.4%, 91.0%, and 78.2%, respectively, which were comparable to those of non-RI patients. During a median follow-up of 119 months, there was no difference in gastric cancer-specific survival between patients with and without RI (P = 0.143).
CONCLUSION
The outcomes of ESD were comparable in patients with and without RI. Decreased renal function itself may not be a reason to keep patients with RI from receiving gastric ESD.
