Objective To investigate the experiences of combined liver-kidney transplantation (CLKTx).Methods Six patients underwent CLKTx in our center. The primary diseases included chronic glomerulonephritis and post-hepatitis B cirrhosis in 4 patients, hepatitis B virus associated nephritis and primary hepatocellular carcinoma in 1 patient, and polycystic kidney and polycystic liver in 1 patient. Cyclosporine A (or tarcrolimus), mycophenolate mofetil and methylprednisolone were applied to prevent rejection. Four cases of post-hepatitis B cirrhosis received lamivudine. And hepatitis B immunogloblin was given to 4 patients for a short term.Results All 6 liver grafts had good primary function. Five renal grafts had good primary function within one week post-transplantation. One patient with delayed kidney graft function needed supportive hemodialysis. The serum creatinine was declined to normal level 52 days post-operation. Pleural effusion occurred in all 6 patients among which 2 patients needed surgical drainage. Two patients had to be treated for bacterial pneumonia and pneumocystis carinii pneumonia respectively. Three patients needed lipid-lowering therapy at early time post-operation. At the last follow-up, all 6 patients were alive with normal renal graft function and liver graft function. The panel reactive antibody (PRA) of one patient was 23 % before transplantation, and remained at about 8 % post-transplantation. The serum HBsAg and HBV DNA of all 4 post- hepatitis B cirrhosis patients became negative post-transplantation.Conclusion CLTx is a safe procedure for combined hepatic and renal end-stage disease with excellent short-term results.

Objective To investigate the endoluminal ultrasonographie characteristics of adenoearcinoma and mucous adenocareinoma of the rectum. Methods The ultrasonographie characteristics of thirty eases of advanced adenoeareinoma of the rectum and twenty-eight eases of rectal mucous adenoearcinoma were analyzed retrospectively in comparison with their eorresponding pathologic images. Results In advanced adenocareinoma of the rectum, 28 eases manifested rough endoluminal surface, of which 19 marked by thickened changes without arrangement of layers, 10 had indistinct arrangement of layers in some areas and one had clear arrangement of layers. In the deepest margin of infiltration, 17 eases manifested sentus, homed or knot-like protuberance, while 5 marked by wavy margins, and 8 cases had clear and fiat margins. In 25 eases of rectal mucous adenocareinoma, 20 manifested smooth endoluminal surface. With regard to infiltration of tumors to rectal wall, 6 cases manifested clear arrangement of layers, while 13 had clear arrangement of layers in part and 6 had no clear arrangement. In the deepest part of infiltration, 8 eases manifested slippery and fiat margins and 10 manifested wavy margins and 7 had a few sentus, homed or knot-like protuberance locally. According to ultrasonic results of the depth of infiltration to rectal wall in comparison with pathologic findings, 25 eases were diagnosed accurately, while in two cases the diagnosis was too shallow and in three eases it was too deep. In rectal mucous adenocarcinoma, 10 cases got correct diagnosis and 14 were diagnosed superficially and one got too deep. The accuracy of ultrasonic diagnosis on rectal mueoas adenoearcinoma was apparently lower than that of adenoeareinoma and most of the misdiagnosis were too superfieiai. Conclusion There are different ultrasonographie characteristics of rectal adenoeareinoma and rectal mucous adenoeareinoma, which can be helpful for the typing of rectal carcinoma and avoiding excessively superficial misdiagnosis.

Objective To analyze the ultrasound features of ultrasonograpy-false-positive benign thyroid nodules in 37 cases. Methods With pathology results as the golden standard, thirty-seven patients with forty-six nodules were misdiagnosed as thyroid cancer by ultrasonography. The pre-operative diagnosis of ultrasonography were retrospectively reviewed and analyzed. Results Among forty-six thyroid nodules, twenty-one nodules had a diameter of 10.0 mm or smaller, while the other twenty-five nodules had a diameter of larger than 10.0 mm. In all forty-six thyroid nodules, the pre-operative ultrasonography found the majority of nodules with 3 or more than 3 malignant signs. The forty-six thyroid nodules showed solid (89.1%, 41/46), cystic-solid (10.9%, 5/46), marked hypoechogencity (87.0%, 40/46), ill-defined margin (56.5%, 26/46), calcification (76.1%, 35/46),microcalcification and macrocalcification), and taller-than-wide shape (30.4%, 14/46). The thyroid imaging reporting and data system (TI-RADS) lexicon was introduced to describe the lesions:forty-one nodules were categorized as TI-RADS 4c and 5 nodules were categorized as TI-RADS 5. On histology, these misdiagnosed thyroid nodules revealed severe fibrosis, hyalinization and calcification. The ultrasonic images were complicated and difficult to be differentiated from thyroid cancer. Conclusion Benign thyroid nodules with fibrosis, hyalinization, hemorrhage and calcification will lead tothe significant change on lesions' morphology, echo intensity and internal structure. When the benign and malignant signs ultrasound co-existed in a single thyroid nodule, benign thyroid nodules might be easily misdiagnosed as thyroid cancer.
