Long-term cardiovascular risk reduction after gastric cancer surgery: a nationwide cohort study.
International Journal of Surgery 2024 April 4
BACKGROUND: Gastrectomy for gastric cancer is associated with postoperative changes in cardiovascular risk factors, however, the impact of gastrectomy on cardiovascular events remains unclear. We assessed the incidence of cardiovascular events between patients undergoing gastrectomy or endoscopic resection for gastric cancer, and the general population.
MATERIALS AND METHODS: This retrospective nationwide cohort study included patients with gastric cancer undergoing gastrectomy(n=37,698), endoscopic resection(n=2,773), and matched control population(n=161,887) between 2004 and 2013. We included patients without a history of cancer other than gastric cancer, myocardial infarction, or ischemic stroke. The primary outcome was the incidence of major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) such as acute myocardial infarction, revascularization, or acute ischemic stroke, in patients with gastric cancer.
RESULTS: Among patients who underwent gastrectomy for gastric cancer, 2.9% (4.69 per 1000 person-years) developed novel MACE within the seven-year follow-up period. The gastrectomy group demonstrated a significantly decreased risk for MACE than the control population (hazard ratio[HR], 0.65; 95% confidence interval[CI], 0.61-0.69; P<0.001). Among the patients undergoing endoscopic resection for gastric cancer, 5.4% (8.21 per 1000 person-years) developed novel MACE within the seven-year follow-up period. The risk for MACE in the endoscopic resection group was not significantly different from the control population.
CONCLUSION: Patients with gastric cancer who have undergone gastrectomy exhibit a reduced risk of cardiovascular diseases in comparison to the general population. In contrast, the risk for cardiovascular diseases in patients with gastric cancer who underwent endoscopic resection did not demonstrate a significant difference in cardiovascular risk in comparison to the general population.
