Objective To explore the efficiency of postoperative individualized chemotherapy based on genetic testing results for non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Methods Fifty-six NSCLC patients at stageⅡorⅢA who accepted video-assisted thoracic operation were divided into two groups:the individualized chemotherapy group (n=26) and non individual?ized chemotherapy group (n=30). The fresh lung tumor tissue of individualized chemotherapy group was tested target gene,in?cluding excision repair cross complementing 1 (ERCC1),ribonucleotide reductase subunit M1 (RRM1),β-tubulinⅢ,thymi?dylate synthase(TS),epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) and breast cancer gene 1 (BRCA1). The theraputic plan was based on genetic testing results in individualized chemotherapy group, and the non individualized chemotherapy group re?ceiving gemcitabine plus cisplatin. The 1-year disease free survival (DFS), 2-year disease free survival (DFS), the progres?sion-free survival (PFS) and the overall survival (OS) were compared between two groups. Results The 2-year DFS (57.69%), PFS (22.1 ± 5.0 months) and OS (24.1 ± 3.2 months) were significantly higher in the individualized chemotherapy group than those of non individualized chemotherapy group (respectively 30.00%, 18.9 ± 6.2 months, 21.9 ± 4.3 months, P<0.05). There was no significant difference in 1-year DFS between two groups (88.46%vs 83.33%, P<0.05). Conclusion The individualized chemotherapy based on genetic testing results can enhance the 2-year DFS, PFS, OS and the efficiency of postoperative adjuvant chemotherapy for NSCLC.

Objective To investigate the elinieopathologie features of refractory epilepsy. Methods The clinical and pathologic features of refractory epilepsy of 273 cases undergoing surgical treatment in Xuanwu Hospital from January 2005 to December 2007 were reviewed retrospectively. Results The mean age of seizure onset and disease duration were 11.0 years and 11.2 years respectively. The following pathologic subgroups were identified: malformation of cortical development (MCD, 158/273) including focal cortical dysplasia (FCD) type Ⅰ (104, the mean age of seizure onset and disease duration were 11.1 years and 11.2 years respectively), FCD type Ⅱ (30, the mean age of seizure onset and disease duration were 7. 9 years and 12. 7 years respectively) , mild MCD (6) , tuberous sclerosis complex (6) and other types (9) , brain turnouts (26/273, the mean age of seizure onset and disease duration were 14. 5 years and 6. 3 years respectively), ulegyria (63/273), brain infections (13/273), vascular malformation (3/273), cyst (3/273), cholesteatoma (1/273) and other unknown types (6/273). Dual pathology was identified in 31 of 158 MCD cases. Eighty-six of 134 (64. 2%) FCD cases were type Ⅰ B predominantly seen in temporal lobe. Twenty of 26 (76. 9%) brain tumours were mixed neuronal-glial tumours predominantly located in temporal lobe. Cortical dysplasia was often seen in these cases. Conclusions The 3 most common causes of refractory epilepsy are MCD, ulegyria and brain tumours. The predominant subtype of FCD is type Ⅰ B often located in temporal lobe, in which associated hippoeampal sclerosis is often seen. Brain tumors in patients with refractory epilepsy are almost benign neoplasms located in temporal lobe, in which the most frequent type is mixed neuronal-glial tumour.

Objective To investigate the clinicopathologic features of the brain tissue from multilobar resection or hemispherectomy for refractory epilepsy. Methods The clinical and pathologic findings of 46 cases seen at Xuanwu hospital from 2005 to 2009 were reviewed retrospectively. Results The mean age of seizure onset and disease duration were 3.9 years and 10.2 years, respectively. There were 33 cases of hemispherectomy and 13 cases of multilobar resection. Temporal lobe abnormality was seen in all cases. The pathologic subgroups were as follows: ulegyria (31/46), malformation of cortical development (MCD, 7/46 ) and infection (8/46). Microscopic examination of ulegyria showed cortical architectural disturbances, neuronal loss, reactive gliosis and appearance of corpora amylacea. We also noted deposition of hemosiderin (13 cases), calcification (9 cases) and island-like neurons (5 cases). All ulegyria cases were accompanied by varying degree of cortical dysplasia, and hippocampus sclerosis were identified in 7 cases. MCD comprised of 5 cases of focal cortical dysplasia ( FCD), including 3 cases of FCDⅠB, 1 case of FCDⅡA and 1 case of FCDⅠA, 1 case of polymicrogyria and 1 case of porencephaly. Among 8 infection eases, there were 5 cases of Rasmussen encephalitis ( RE), l case of cysticercosis, 1 case of tuberculous meningitis and l case of Cytomegalovirus encephalitis. Conclusions The most common pathological category of specimens from hemispherectomy or multilobar resection is ulegyria with obvious temporal lobe abnormality. This is followed by MCD ( with FCDⅠB as the main type) and central nervous system infection (RE as the most frequent abnormality).
