This study investigated the prognostic value of body composition in patients with intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (iCCA). The results showed that alterations in muscle mass and adipose tissue, as well as metabolic-associated fatty liver disease (MAFLD), were associated with prognosis. However, only age and transfusions were independent predictors of overall survival.
Background: Body composition alterations are frequent in patients with cancer or chronic liver disease, but their prognostic value remains unclear in many cancer entities.Objective: We investigated the impact of disease aetiology and body composition after surgery for intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (iCCA), a rare and understudied cancer entity in European and North American cohorts.Methods: Computer tomography-based assessment of body composition at the level of the third lumbar vertebra was performed in 173 patients undergoing curative-intent liver resection for iCCA at the Department of Surgery, Charite - Universitatsmedizin Berlin. Muscle mass and -composition as well as subcutaneous and visceral adipose tissue quantity were determined semi-automatically. (Secondary) sarcopenia, sarcopenic obesity, myosteatosis, visceral and subcutaneous obesity were correlated to clinicopathological data.Results: Sarcopenia was associated with post-operative morbidity (intraoperative transfusions [p = 0.027], Clavien-Dindo = IIIb complications [p = 0.030], post-operative comprehensive complication index, CCI [p < 0.001]). Inferior overall survival was noted in patients with myosteatosis (33 vs. 23 months, p = 0.020).Fifty-eight patients (34%) had metabolic (dysfunction)-associated fatty liver disease (MAFLD) and had a significantly higher incidence of sarcopenic (p = 0.006), visceral (p < 0.001) and subcutaneous obesity (p < 0.001). Patients with MAFLD had longer time-to-recurrence (median: 38 vs. 12 months, p = 0.025, log-rank test). Multivariable cox regression analysis confirmed only clinical, and not body, composition parameters (age > 65, fresh frozen plasma transfusions) as independently prognostic for overall survival.Conclusion: This study evidenced a high prevalence of MAFLD in iCCA, suggesting its potential contribution to disease aetiology. Alterations of muscle mass and adipose tissue were more frequent in patients with MAFLD.
