Objective To explore the value of bone marrow biopsy ( BMB) in early diagnosis of aggressive NK cell leukaemia( ANKL). Methods The clinical data of ten cases with ANKL were retrospectively analyzed,morphology, immunophenotype and hybridization in situ of bone marrow were analyzed. Results In all cases, BMB showed hypercellular, with 4 cases markedly hypercellular. Atypical neoplastic cells demonstrated focal and fascicle growth pattern and were composed of median-sized cells with a few cytoplasm, slightly irregular nuclei, fine chromatin, indistinct nucleoli and some mitotic counting. Characteristic histocytes with haemophagocytosis were observed in the bone marrow slides. The neoplastic cells were positive for CD2、CD3e、CD7、CD56、TIA-1. EBER was found positive in all cases. Conclusion Bone marrow biopsy and immunochemistry were essential and reliable diagnostic tool in early diagnosis of ANKL.

ObjectiveTo observe the effect of telmisartan on plasma levels of inflammatory cytokine in coronary artery disease (CAD) patients complicated with diabetes mellitus and hypertension after percutaneous coronary intervention.MethodsFifty CAD patients who just had undertook angioplasty and implanted stents were randomly divided into two groups, the test group (telmisartan group, n=25) and control group (perindopril group, n=25). After treatment, patients were followed-up for 6 months; plasma samples were collected from each patient before and after percutaneous coronary intervention. Then plasma levels of C-reactive protein (CRP), monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 (MCP-1) were measured by enzyme-linked immunoassay. The changes of cholesterol, fasting plasma glucose (FPG), insulin and insulin resistance index (IRI) were observed.ResultsAt the end of 6 months, plasma levels of CRP and MCP-1 of patients in the test group significantly declined (P<0.01), and showing a inversely correlation with FPG (P<0.01), and FPG, insulin and IRI also declined. In the control group, only CRP and MCP-1 declined (P<0.05). Meanwhile, the frequency of cardiovascular events in test group was significantly lower than that in the control group.ConclusionTelmisartan can decline plasma levels of CRP, MCP-1 and frequency of cardiovascular events as well as increasing insulin sensitivity and improving glucose metabolism to unstable angina patients.

Objective:To investigate the application value of biological muscle flap in laparo-scopic radical proximal gastrectomy with esophagogastric anastomosis.Methods:The retrospec-tive and descriptive study was conducted. The clinicopathological data of 10 patients with adeno-carcinoma of esophagogastric junction who were admitted to The First Affiliated Hospital of Xi′an Jiaotong University from May 2023 to August 2023 were collected. All patients were males, aged (65±5)years. All patients underwent laparoscopic radical proximal gastrectomy and esophagogastric anastomosis with digestive tract reconstruction using the esophagogastric biological muscle flap. Observation indicators: (1) surgical situations and early complications; (2) follow-up and late com-plications. Measurement data with normal distribution were represented as Mean± SD, and measure-ment data with skewed distribution were represented as M(range). Count data were described as absolute numbers. Results:(1) Surgical situations and early complications. All 10 patients success-fully completed the surgery without conversion to open surgery, and the operation time was (166±18)minutes. Cases with digestive tract reconstruction as end-to-side anastomosis and Overlap anas-tomosis were 1 and 9, respectively. The time of digestive tract reconstruction, the number of lymph node dissected, volume of intraoperative blood loss, time to postoperative first anal exhaust, time to postoperative first intake of liquid food, duration of postoperative hospital stay were (40±12)minutes, 24±6, (41±9)mL, (3.4±0.5)days, (4.1±1.0)days, (8.3±0.7)days in the 10 patients. Of 4 cases with postoperative early complications, 1 case developed pulmonary infection (Clavien-Dindo grade Ⅱ) on the second day after surgery, with pulmonary infection absorbed after 5 days of antibiotic treat-ment. Two cases experienced chest distress and shortness of breath on the third day after surgery, with the diagnosis of a small to moderate amount of pleural effusion after chest B-ultrasound examination. After pleural puncture and active treatment, the symptoms of them were improved and the pleural effusion disappeared. There was 1 case with choking sensation when eating solid food, which was started from the third week after surgery. Upper gastrointestinal imaging revealed mild anastomotic stenosis of Clavien-Dindo grade Ⅰ in the patient, who was improved after conservative treatment. On the 7th day after surgery, all 10 patients underwent upper gastrointestinal angiography, and no anastomotic leakage or stenosis occurred. There was no sign of contrast agent reflux in the supine position and 30° head down position. (2) Follow-up and late complications. All 10 patients were followed up for 59.5(range, 31.0-127.0)days. The esophageal reflux scale score of 10 patients was 1.4±0.3. During the follow-up, 1 case underwent gastroscopy on 40 days after surgery, which showed reflux esophagitis with Los Angeles grade as B and the Clavien-Dindo grade as Ⅰ. There was no clinical symptom such as heartburn or acid reflux. Results of 24-hour pH monitoring showed that the patient experienced 24 instances of reflux in an upright position and 15 instances of reflux in a supine position, with no prolonged reflux. The total reflux time within 24 hours was 75 minutes. The DeMeester score was 38.3. Results of esophageal pressure measurement showed that the esophageal contraction morphology was normal, but the anastomotic opening was not well relaxed. The rest of 9 cases had no complication such as reflux esophagitis.Conclusion:Biological muscle flap applied in the laparoscopic radical proximal gastrectomy with esophagogastric anastomosis is safe and feasible, with satisfied short-term efficacy.

Ureteral artery fistula (UAF) is a rare complication after long-term indwelling of ureteral stent. In this study, two cases were presented. Both of them underwent pelvic tumor surgery and radiotherapy, and had a history of cutaneous terminal ureterostomy and long-term indwelling of ureteral stents. The first case, a 52-year-old female, was admitted to hospital because of intermittent bleeding from ureteral dermostomy for 1 week on April 2, 2020. CT examination revealed hematocele in the left upper urinary tract, and left nephrectomy was performed.However, bleeding still presented and the distal ureteral resection was performed at the same time, and partial ureteral was ligated. Postoperative diagnostic was ureteral artery fistula. After 8 months of follow-up, no recurrent bleeding presented. Another case, a 82-year-old male, was admitted to hospital because of bleeding at the ureteral dermostomy for an hour on June 15, 2020. Contrast enhanced CT examination revealed intersecting of the left ureter and common iliac artery, and interventional surgery was performed, by which UAF was diagnosed. Embolization of left internal iliac artery and stent implantation of common iliac artery and external iliac artery were performed intraoperatively. The bleeding stopped immediately after the operation, and there was no further bleeding during follow-up of 6 months.

Accurate classification of the acetabular injuries and appropriate treatment plan are great challenges for orthopedic surgeons because of the irregular anatomical structure of the acetabulum and aggregation of important vessels and nerves around it. Letournel-Judet classification system has been widely applied to classify acetabular fractures. However, there are several limitations, including incomplete inclusion of fracture types, difficulty in understanding and insufficient guidance for surgical treatment, etc. Serious complications such as traumatic arthritis are common due to wrong classification and diagnosis and improper selection of surgical strategy, which brings a heavy burden to the society and families. Three-column classification, based on anatomic characteristics, has advantages of containing more fracture types and being easy to understand, etc. To solve the problems existing in the diagnosis and treatment process based on Letournel-Judet classification, achieve accurate diagnosis and treatment of patients with acetabular fractures, and obtain satisfactory prognosis, the Orthopedic Trauma Emergency Center of Third Hospital of Hebei Medical University and the Trauma Orthopedic Branch of the Chinese Orthopedic Association organized experts from relevant fields to formulate the Expert consensus on the accurate diagnosis and treatment of acetabular fractures based on three-column classification ( version 2023) in terms of principles of evidence-based medicine. Based on the three-column classification, 15 recommendations were proposed, covering the diagnosis, treatment, complication prevention and management, etc, so as to provide reference for accurate diagnosis and treatment of acetabular fractures.
