Objective To observe CT characteristics of primary retroperitoneal malignant fibrous histiocytoma (MFH). Methods CT images and clinical data of 25 patients with primary retroperitoneal MFH proved pathologically were reviewed and analyzed retrospectively. Results A total of 37 lesions were identified in 25 patients, in which 17 had single lesion and 8 had multiple lesions, with mean diameter of the tumor of 12.85 cm, including 32 light lobulated and 5 round-shaped lesions. Among all 37 lesions, 28 were well-defined and the others had unclear border, while 7 masses were homogenous in density and the other 30 were inhomogenous with necrosis, cysts, bleeding or calcification. All lesions enhanced in various degrees with slight enhancement in arterial phase and moderate enhancement in venous phase. All the patients underwent immunohistochemistry examination, and the positive rate of Vimentin, CD68, AACT, S-100, CKpan and EMA were 94.74%, 90.48%, 88.24%, 0, 0 and 15.00%, respectively. Conclusion Primary retroperitoneal MFH have some specific CT manifestations that being helpful to the diagnosis, but final diagnosis depends on the cytopathology and immunohistochemistry.

Objective The objective of this study was to investigate effects of miR-34a on the proliferation,invasion and migration of colon cancer SW480 cell and its possible mechanism.Methods miR-34a overexpressed lentivirus and empty virus vector were transfected into SW480 cells and untreated cells were used as blank control group.Real-time PCR was used to detect the expression of miR-34a in each group.The cell proliferation was detected by CCK8 assay.The cell migration and invasion ability were detected by wound healing and transwell assays.The expression of E-cadherin and Vimentin protein was detected by Western blotting.Results Compared with the empty virus vector group and the blank control group,the expression of miR-34a was increased in the transfected cells,and the cell proliferation efficiency,invasion and migration ability were decreased in the transfected cells (P < 0.05).miR-34a significantly increased the expression of E-cadherin protein and decreased Vimentin protein expression in the transfected cells.Conclusion miR-34a can inhibit the proliferation,invasion and migration of colon cancer SW480 cells,and affect the expression of E-cadherin and Vimentin.MR-34a is expected to be a potential molecular target for the metastasis and recurrence of colorectal cancer.
4.Research progress on the relationship between microRNA-196a and tumor
Practical Oncology Journal 2018;32(1):42-46
As a member of the miRNA family,microRNA-196a(miR-196a) has received much attention in recent years. MiR-196a not only plays an important regulatory role in various biological processes, but it also shows that miR-196a also func-tions as oncogene in the tumorigenesis and progression. In recent studies, miR-196a is high expression in the serum, tissues and cells of patients with cancer,and can promote tumor cell proliferation,invasion and metastasis,inhibit tumor cell apoptosis and en-hance tumor drug resistance. In this paper,we reviewed the research progress on the correlation between miR-196a and tumor based on the latest reports at domestics and abroad.

Objective To evaluate dynamic CT and PET-CT features of normal dog liver after radiofrequency ablation(RFA)correlated with the time-related histopathological changes.Methods Fifteen hybrid adult dogs in good health condition were evenly divided into 5 groups(the immediate,1 st,2 nd,4 th and 8 th week group)according to random digits table methods.Twice RFA was performed for each dog liver.The dogs after RFA underwent CT and PET-CT scanning respectively at the time point defined for each group.All dogs were executed through intravenous injection of klorvess liquid after scanning.Liver samples were histologically examined.All images were assessed to determine the ratios(r_(p/p))which referred to the comparison of rimlike enhancement or tracer uptake in the periphery of the necrosis to that in normal liver parenchyma.Those imaging results were compared and correlated with histopathological findings.Results For the immediate group after RFA procedure,central ablation lesions appeared coagulation necrosis and surrounding sinusoids engorged with blood.On the images of enhanced CT,marked rimlike enhancement was noticed in peripheral ablation lesions.While PET-CT showed decreased ~(18)F-FDG uptake surrounded by homogeneous tracer distribution.For the 1 st-4 th week group,central necrosis was gradually getting more severe.Infiltration of the inflammatory cells,granulation tissue formation and fibrous tissue restoration were noticed in peripheral ablation lesions.Rimlike enhancement and increased glucose metabolism appeared surrounding the lesions on CT and PET-CT,especially in the 1st to 2nd week groups.For the 8 th week group after RFA,the enhancement or hypermetabolism metioned above disappeared when perilesional tissue regeneration became more obvious.From the dynamic curve of changes on enhanced CT,marked enhancement occurred in the immediate group after ablation(r_(p/p)=1.34±0.21),reached its peak at the 1st week group(r_(p/p)=1.39±0.20),and then declined gradually.The metabolic changes on PET-CT showed a typical single peak curve,with the peak at the 1st week group(r_(p/p)=1.19±0.09)and similar even metabolism at the immediate and 8 th week group.Conclusions Both CT and PET-CT imaging can well correlate with the histopathological changes after RFA in the normal liver.To avoid the interference of inflammatory reaction when differentiating normal liver tissue from residual tumor,it is better to take radiology examination immediately and 8 weeks after RFA.PET-CT probably has advantages over CT immediately after RAF.After 1 week,PET-CT and CT may have similar diagnostic efficacy.

Objective:
To investigate the clinical value of preoperative selective arterial embolization for spinal tumors.
Methods:
The clinical data of 42 consecutive patients who underwent spinal tumor resection in department of orthopedics Shengjing Hospital of China Medical University from January 2017 to December 2018 were retrospectively analyzed. Patients were divided into embolization group (20 cases) and non-embolization group (22 cases) according to whether they underwent arterial embolization before tumor resection. Two surgical treatments including vertebral resection and laminectomy were performed. The embolization group included 12 cases of vertebral resection and 8 cases of laminectomy; while the non-embolization group included 13 cases of vertebral resection and 9 cases of laminectomy. The difference of intraoperative estimated blood loss, total number of transfused packed red blood cell, calibrated estimated blood loss, operation time and hospitalization time were compared using independent sample
