The incidence of solitary fibroma of seminal vesicle is low, and the source of seminal vesicle is rare. A 38-year-old patient was admitted to hospital because of intermittent gross hematuria for more than one month. Seminal vesicle space occupying lesions can be seen in pelvic MRI. Laparoscopic resection of right seminal vesicle tumor was performed, and the pathological diagnosis tended to solitary fibroma. During the 5-month follow-up, the symptoms of hematuria disappeared and no recurrence.

Objective To investigate the application valve of real-time fluorescence quantitative polymerase chain reaction(RT-PCR) for the detection of tumor M2-pyruvate kinase(tM2-PK) DNA in patients with colorectal cancer(CRC).Methods Fragment of tM2-PK DNA(162 bp) was amplified and inserted into PGM-T vector to construct recombinant plasmid,which was used to develop RT-PCR method.Sensitivity,specificity and repeatability of RT-PCR for the detection of tM2-PK were analyzed.From Jan.2014 to Jun.2016,200 CRC patients and 100 healthy subjects were enrolled and detected for fecal and serum tM2-PK DNA by using RT-PCR,and the detected results were compared with those detected by using enzyme linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA).Results Recombinant plasmid was successfully constructed,which was certified by sequencing.The sensitivity of RT-PCR for the detection of tM2-PK DNA was 10 copy/mL,with high specificity and 0.3%-2.9% of coefficient of variation.In patients,the positive rate of fecal tM2-PK DNA,detected by RT-PCR,was 92.50%,and that of ELISA to detect tM2-PK was 80.00%.Fecal and serum levels of tM2-PK were correlated with the pathologic stages of tumour.Conclusion Self-established RT-PCR could be specificity and sensitivity for the detection of fecal tM2-PK,which could be used for the early diagnosis of CRC.

Objective To evaluate the correlation of different fractionation schedules in radiotherapy with the local control ( LC) and overall survival ( OS) rates in patients with extensive?stage small cell lung cancer ( ES?SCLC ) , and to figure out the relationship between different fractionation schedules in radiotherapy and the prognosis of ES?SCLC. Methods One hundred and ten patients newly diagnosed with ES?SCLC from February 2010 to March 2015 received chemoradiotherapy. According to the radiation dose, all patients were divided into hypo?fractionation group ( 30?45 Gy/3 Gy/10?15 f, n=31) and conventional fractionation group ( 54?60 Gy/1?8?2?0 Gy/27?30 f, n=79) . In all patients, 90?9% had stageⅣSCLC;21 patients had brain metastasis;39 patients were treated with prophylactic cranial irradiation ( PCI ) . The Kaplan?Meier method was used to calculate the survival time and log?rank test was used for between?group comparison. Between?group comparison of categorical data was made by χ2 test. Results The number of patients followed?up were 85 at 2?years. In all patients, the 2?year OS, progression?free survival ( PFS) , and LC rates were 27?7%, 17?5%, and 38?9%, respectively. The hypo?fractionation group had similar prognosis to the conventional fractionation group. There were no significant differences in the 2?year OS, PFS, and LC rates between the two groups ( 35% vs. 26%, P=0?886;18% vs. 16%, P=0?560;67% vs. 36%, P=0?159) . There was also no significant difference in the 2?year OS rate between patients treated with and without PCI (44% vs. 18%, P=0?044). In 84 patients with treatment failure, 11 had local recurrence, 41 had distant metastasis, and 32 had local recurrence plus distant metastasis. Conclusions The hypofractionated radiotherapy has similar efficacy but substantially shortened radiation time compared with conventionally fractionated radiotherapy. The palliative hypofractionated radiotherapy requires further study for ES?SCLC.

Objective:Based on the regulatory effect of curcumin (Cur) on inflammation and iron death, to explore the mechanism of Cur protecting against cerebral ischemia-reperfusion injury (CIRI).Methods:A rat model of middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO) was established by the modified suture-occluded method. The modeled SD rats were randomly divided into the Sham group, CIRI group and Cur group. The neurobehavioral score of rats was measured by the Longa method. Hematoxylin-eosin (HE) staining was used to observe the pathological changes in the brain tissue of rats in each group. Furthermore, the contents of glutathione (GSH), malondialdehyde (MDA) and Fe 2+, as well as the levels of the inflammatory factors tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α, interleukin (IL)-1β and IL-6 in the ischemic cerebral cortex, were detected by corresponding testing kits. Western blotting was applied to detect the expression of glutathione peroxidase 4 (GPX4), a key regulatory protein of ferroptosis in the cerebral cortex. In addition, neuronal apoptosis was detected by terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase-mediated dUTP nick-end labeling (TUNEL) assay, and ultrastructural changes in neurons in the cerebral cortex were observed under a transmission electron microscope. Results:Compared with the CIRI group, the Cur group showed decreased neurobehavioral scores, significantly reduced contents of MDA, Fe 2+, TNF-α, IL-1β and IL-6 (all P<0.05), but obviously increased content of GSH and protein expression of GPX4 (both P<0.05). Further pathological examination revealed edema, rupture and necrosis of neurons in the CIRI group, while mild edema and a small number of necrotic cells were observed in the Cur group only. The results of TUNEL staining indicated that the rate of neuronal apoptosis in the Cur group was lower than that in the CIRI group, with a statistically significant difference between groups [(23.6±3.5)% vs. (36.8±4.2)%; P<0.05]. In addition, under the transmission electron microscope, the CIRI group had a reduced volume of mitochondria, thickened double-layer membrane structure, and decreased or disappeared mitochondrial cristae, while the Cur group showed partial margination of nuclear chromatin and alleviated damage to mitochondria. Conclusions:Cur could attenuate CIRI, and its neuroprotective mechanism may be related to the inhibition of the inflammatory response and GPX4-mediated ferroptosis.

Intraoperative ultrasound assisted localization is routinely used in the surgical treatment of completely endogenous renal cell tumor, however the localization and guidance ability of conventional ultrasound will decline to a certain extent for isoechoic renal tumor. A 62 years old female patient with right renal tumor was reported. The tumor diameter was about 2.3 cm× 1.7 cm, equivalent to the isoechoic of kidney. Laparoscopic partial nephrectomy was performed under the real-time guidance of contrast-enhanced ultrasound. The tumor was found to be lack of blood supply during the operation, and the tumor contour was clearly developed by contrast agent.The operation was successfully completed, and the pathological diagnosis was polycystic renal tumor with low malignant potential.The incisional margin was negative.The patient recovered well after operation without complications.No recurrence or metastasis was found after 6 months of follow-up.The renal function was good.

IgG4-related diseases have a low incidence and are easily misdiagnosed as tumors in clinical treatments. A 26-year-old male patient was admitted to the hospital because of a left adrenal tumor found in health examination for more than 5 months. The tumor in the left adrenal region could be seen from abdominal CT, and the retroperitoneal laparoscopic resection of the left adrenal tumor was performed. Postoperative pathology was consistent with IgG4-related diseases, and serum IgG4 was abnormally high. After 2 months’ follow-up, serum IgG4 returned to normal, and no special discomfort.
