Chinese Journal of Minimally Invasive Surgery 2001;0(05):-
Objective To explore the value of laparoscopy in the diagnosis and treatment of ectopic pregnancy.Methods Laparoscopy was performed in 342 cases suspected of having ectopic pregnancy.If the confirmative diagnosis was clarified,unilateral salpingectomy,salpingostomy,ovarian wedge resection,or cornual resection were conducted;if the diagnosis was not clearly established under laparoscope,further evaluation with dilation and curettage was given.Results Out of 342 cases,335 were confirmatively diagnosed as having ectopic pregnancy under laparoscope,333 of which were successfully treated by laparoscopy(including 3 cases of ovarian pregnancy and 3 cases of interstitial pregnancy) and 2 of which were given conversions to open surgery.Among 7 cases in which the diagnosis was not clearly established under laparoscope,1 case was diagnosed as having intrauterine pregnancy with uterine anomaly(unicornuate uteri with rudimentary horn) and was treated with cornual resection and homolateral salpingectomy,1 case was diagnosed as having intrauterine pregnancy accompanying corpus luteal rupture and was treated with enucleation of corpus lutein cyst,and other 5 cases were not found having intrauterine or ectopic pregnancy and were cured with MTX injection.The time to first flatus was 8~24 hours after laparoscopic operation in 340 cases and 24~36 hours after open surgery in 2 cases.The duration of postoperative hospital stay was 2~4 days after laparoscopy except for 5 cases of MTX therapy,and 6 days after open surgery.Conclusions Laparoscopy is valuable in the early diagnosis of ectopic pregnancy;laparoscopic operation is safe and effective in the treatment of ectopic pregnancy.

Objective To discuss the therapeutic effect of chemoradiotherapy on 74 patients with early stage nasal NK/T cell lymphoma and their prognostic factors. Methods 74 patients with early nasal NK/T cell lymphoma that were treated in Shanxi Cancer Hospital from January 2005 to November 2013 were analyzed retrospectively. Among them, 28 patients received radiotherapy alone, 10 patients received concurrent chemoradiotherapy and 36 patients received alone. In 36 patients with chemotherapy, 25 cases were treated with CHOP (cyclophosphamide+doxorubicin+vincristine+prednisone), 4 cases were treated with DICE (dexamethasone + etoposide + cisplatin + isofosfamide) and 7 cases were treated with L-asparaginase +dexamethasone+ifosfamide+methotrexate + etoposide. According to Ann Arbor classification, 60 patients were stage Ⅰ and 14 patients were stage Ⅱ. Kaplan-Meier test was used for survival analysis, log-rank method was used for single factor analysis, and Cox proportional hazard model was used for multi factor analysis. Results All patients completed the treatment. 24 patients were died. 3-year overall survival (OS) rate was 72.5 %. The OS rate in simple radiotherapy group was 92.7 %, simple chemotherapy group was 62.3%, and the concurrent chemoradiotherapy group was 79.1%. The OS rates in simple radiotherapy and simple chemotherapy groups had statistical difference (χ2 = 10.676, P< 0.05), The difference in the simple radiotherapy and concurrent chemoradiotherapy groups was not statistically significant (χ2= 2.019, P> 0.05). In radiotherapy alone group, the rates of complete remission (CR), partial remission (PR), stable rate and progress rate of disease were 89.3%(25/28), 7.1%(2/28), 3.6%(1/28), and 0;in chemotherapy alone group, they were 55.6 % (20/36), 25.0 % (9/36), 8.0 % (3/36), and 11.1 % (4/36); in concurrent chemoradiotherapy group, they were 80.0 % (8/ 10), 10.0 % (1/10), 0, and 10.0 % (1/10), respectively. There was significant difference between radiotherapy group and chemotherapy group (χ2 = 8.584, P< 0.05); there was no significant difference between radiotherapy group and concurrent chemoradiotherapy group (χ2=0.556, P>0.05). Single factor analysis showed that age, ECOG score, B symptoms, Ann Arbor stage, IPI and treatment options were related to the prognosis. Multivariate analysis showed that age, ECOG score and Ann Arbor stage were independent prognostic factors. Conclusions As the main treatment method of early stage nasal NK/T cell lymphoma, radiotherapy can obtain good short-term curative effect and long-term curative effect. Age, ECOG score, B symptoms, Ann Arbor stage, IPI and treatment options are related to survival prognosis. Age, ECOG score and Ann Arbor stage are the independent prognostic factors.

Objective To evaluate the prognosis influencing factors of early non-small cell luny cancer (NSCLC) after radiotherapy.Methods 81 early NSCLC patients received definitive radiotherapy and were eligible.Among these patients,60 were diagnosed as squamous cell carcinoma,16 were adenocarcinoma and 5 were diagnosed through imaging instead of pathology.45 patients received conventional radiotherapy,36 patients received three dimensional conformal radiotherapy (3D-CRT),All of them received a total dose of 50-96 Gy with a median dose of 67.8 Gy. Kaplan-Meier survival curves and Cox regression model analysis were applied to evaluate the survival and prognostic factors. Results The median survival time was 34 months.The 1-,3- and 5-year survival rates (OS) were 88.7 %,41.9 %,21.8 %,respectively.Karnofsky performance status≥80,Clinical stage, diameter≤4 cm and the therapeutic effect were associated with improving overall survival.Cox hazards model showed that Karnofsky performance status≥ 80 and diameter≤4 cm were likely to be independent positive prognostic factors. Conclusion Karnofsky performance status and tumor diamater can be used to evaluate the prognosis of early NSCLC after radiotherapy.
