Objective To evaluate the clinical manifestation and operative treatment for the scolio-sis of Marfan syndrome, and analyze its clinical outcomes as well. Methods The retrospective study cov-ered 10 patients including 8 females and 2 males with an average age of 12.9 years (9 to 16 years), who had undergone operations from January 1990 to December 2002. The Cobb's angle in the coronal and sagittal plane, the trunk shift, the apex rotation and shift were evaluated both before and after operation respectively. In the group, there were four cases with family history. Of the 10 cases, the classification of scoliosis was single curve in two cases, double curves in six cases and three curves in two cases. Results All the pa-tients were followed up for a mean time of 15 months, ranged from 4 months to 3 years. The trunk shift changed from the mean distance of 2.17 cm to 1.41 cm. The apex rotation decreased about 1?. The apex shift changed from the mean distance of 4.57 cm to 2.14 cm. The mean Cobb's angle in the coronal plane changed from 88? to 42?. The correction rate was about 46.38% (18.18% to 81.54%). The Cobb's angle on the final follow-up was 46?( 11? to 96?), and the mean lost angle was 4?. The mean Cobb's angle of the thoracic kyphosis was 20?(-10? to 52?) preoperatively and 23?(0? to 35?)postoperatively, and 24?( 0? to 35?) on the final follow-up. The Cobb's angles of the thoracolumbar kyphosis of 5 cases improved from 85? to 10? after operations, and there was no angle loss on the follow-up. Conclusion The three dimensional corrective instrumentation can be used effectively for the correction of the scoliosis of Marfan syndrome. The critical points for the successful operation are the simultaneous correction of the coronal and sagittal plane deformities, prevention of the dural expansion in the lumbar or lumbosacral canal, rigid and multi-segmental internal fixation, extensive and ample bone fusion, and correct external fixation after operation.

Objective:
To investigate the mortality of malignant tumors, diabetes, cardio-cerebrovascular diseases and chronic respiratory diseases and trends in probability of premature mortality due to these four chronic diseases in Jiangmen City, Guangdong Province from 2012 to 2021, so as to provide the evidence for perfecting the chronic disease control strategy.
Methods:
The mortality of malignant tumors, diabetes, cardio-cerebrovascular diseases and chronic respiratory diseases among household registered residents in Jiangmen City from 2012 to 2021 were collected from the Guangdong Provincial Population Death Information Registration Management System, and the crude mortality, standardized mortality by the population of the Fifth National Population Census in China in 2000 and probability of premature mortality were calculated. The trends in mortality and probability of premature mortality were analyzed using average annual percent change (AAPC), and whether achieving the targets for the probability of premature mortality due to four chronic diseases in 2025 and 2030 were evaluated.
Results:
A total of 226 012 deaths occurred due to four chronic diseases in Jiangmen City from 2012 to 2021, and the overall crude mortality and standardized mortality rates were 569.22/105 and 283.29/105, with a reduction in the probability of premature mortality from 15.04% to 12.05% (AAPC=-2.403%, Z=-7.603, P<0.001). The probability of premature mortality due to four chronic diseases decreased from 19.21% to 16.38% in males, and from 10.42% to 7.58% in females (AAPC=-1.893% and -3.085%, Z=-5.262 and -9.811, both P<0.001). The probability of premature mortality due to diabetes appeared a tendency towards a rise (AAPC=2.317%, Z=2.548, P=0.034), and the probability of premature mortality due to cardio-cerebrovascular diseases showed a tendency towards a decline (AAPC=-4.826%, Z=-13.590, P<0.001), while no significant changing trend was seen in the probability of premature mortality due to malignant tumors or chronic respiratory diseases (AAPC=-0.751% and -2.461%, Z=-1.532 and -1.730, P=0.125 and 0.122). The predicted probability of premature mortality due to four chronic diseases was 10.92% in 2025 and 9.66% in 2030 in Jiangmen City, which were both lower than the target (11.21% and 9.81%).
Conclusions
The probability of premature mortality due to four chronic diseases appeared a tendency towards a decline in Jiangmen City from 2012 to 2021, which can reach the target in 2025 and 2030. Males should be given a high priority for interventions of chronic diseases, and diabetes control should be reinforced.

BACKGROUND:Skul repair materials cannot only restore the normal shape of the skul , but also play an important role in brain functional recovery. OBJECTIVE:To summarize the research status of polyetheretherketone (PEEK), titanium al oy and tissue engineering technique in cranioplasty and the prospect of three-dimensional (3D) printing technology. METHODS:Literatures related to skul repair materials were retrieved in databases of CNKI and PubMed published from 1995 to 2016, using the keywords of“bone regeneration material in calvarial, 3d printing bone scaffold”in Chinese and English, respectively. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Although titanium and PEEK have been used in clinic, titanium holds conductivity, thermal conductivity, while PEEK that may be displaced or lost is not involved in osseointegration. Tissue engineering technology participates in the skul tissue reconstruction, achieving satisfactory repair outcomes, but the problems of scaffold selection and preparation, seed cel obtainment, and growth factor release need to be overcomed. 3D printing technology can print personalized shape, fit the defect precisely, but the raw materials should have good biocompatibility and biomechanical property. Combination of tissue engineering technology with 3D printing technology shows a broad prospect in cranioplasty.

Objective To explore the diagnosis and treatment of cancerization relative to breast intraductal papilloma. Methods Clinical and pathological data of 52 patients with cancerous change of intraductal papilloma were studied retrospectively from January 1998 to December 2008. Results 39 of the 52 cases were diagnosed as malignance or suspected malignance by at least one of the preoperative imaging examinations such as ultrasonography, breast mammography or ductography. Cancer cells were found in 13 of the 46 patients who received fine needle aspiration. Frozen section established the malignance in 18 of the 39 cases. In a postoperative pathological report, 32 cases were cancerization of intraductal papilloma (carcinoma in situ) and 16 were cancerous change with microinvasion, only 4 patients with invasive carcinoma. All the patients received surgical management, 26 of the 52 cases were treated with modified radical mastectomy, 8 of them were performed with breast-conserving surgery (segmental resection plus axillary lymph node resection),7 cases underwent total mastectomy and 11 were just conducted with segmental resection. Only one people was found with axillary node metastasis among the 34 patients who received axillary lymph node dissection.Conclusion The correct preoperative diagnosis of the carcinomatous change of breast intraductal papilloma are always difficult and inconclusive, the frozen section may be helpful and the final diagnosis relied on the fully drawing materials of pathology after the operation. Treatment should be varied based on different pathological findings.

Objective To analyze the clinical features of primary splenic lymphoma. Method Clinicopatholngie features of 29 patients with primary splenic lymphoma treated in Cancer Hospital, Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences from November 2000 to August 2008 were analyzed retrospectively. Results In this study 27 cases were confirmed to be non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL), and 2 cases were of Hodgkin's lymphoma (HL). According to Ahmann's staging, 6 cases belonged to stage Ⅰ, 4 was stage Ⅱ, and 19 was stage Ⅲ. Twenty-six patients received spleneetomy, 2 cases did splenectomy plus pancreatic body and tail resection, and 1 case did spleneetomy plus partial gastrectomy. Postoperatively, 19 cases received chemotherapy, and 5 of the 19 patients received rituximab (Mabthera) treatment. One patient received radiotherapy for regional lymph node invasion. The median time of follow-up was 24 months (range, 2 -93 months). The l-year, 3-year and 5-year overall survival rates were 96%, 83% and 73%, respectively. The 1-year, 3-year and 5-year disease-free survival rates were 96%, 51% and 51%, respectively. Conclusions Primary splenic lymphoma is the most common malignant tumor of the spleen. Splenectomy combined with excision of invaded tissues or organs is important therapy for patients with primary splenic lymphoma. Comprehensive treatments including chemotherapy, radiotherapy and biotherapy are recommended after operation.
