Parathyroid carcinoma is a rare maligant tumor.The main clinical symptoms are primary hyperparathyroidism and all kinds of metabolism disorder and the damage of homologous tissues and organs.The consummate laboratory examination and the accurate imaging localization and the credible histopathologic feature are key points to diagnosis of parathyroid carcinoma.Parathyroid carcinoma is unsensitive to chemotherapy and radiotherapy,and en bloc resection of the carcinoma is the preferred treatment approach.AntiPTH immunization as a new treatment of parathyroid carcinoma has been paid close attention.The prognosis of parathyroid carcinoma is mainly depended on whether the tumor was cut off completely and the control as well as the monitor of the symptomatic hypercalcemian after operation.This article reviews the latest researches and introduces the latest advancement in the diagnosis and treatment of parathyroid carcinoma.

Absctact: Objective To discuss the correlation between the TCM syndromes and the clinical pathological features of central air way non-small cell lung cancer.MethodsTCM syndromes were determined through inquiry and physical examination for 109 cases of lung cancer patients. Remaining specimens after excision and routine pathological examination were under HE staining for pathological diagnosis and study. The correlation between the TCM syndromes and the clinical pathological features was analyzed.ResultsThe histological types of central airway non-small cell lung cancer comprised squamous cell carcinoma (69/109, 63.3%), salivary type carcinoma (27/109, 24.8%), adenocarcinoma (10/109, 9.2%) and other rare carcinomas (adenosquamous, 2/109, 1.8%; sarcomatoid carcinoma, 1/109, 0.9%). The clinical and pathological features showed that the elderly, male, smoking patients most commonly suffered from squamous cell carcinoma, while the young, female, non-smoking patients suffered from salivary type carcinoma most frequently. The distribution characteristics showed that the qi-yin deficiency syndrome was most common in squamous cell carcinoma and salivary type carcinoma, accounting for 41.4% (29/70) and 40.7% (11/27) respectively; qi-deficiency and phlegm-dampness syndrome was most common in adenocarcinoma, accounting for 50.0% (6/12). TCM syndrome types were closely related to sex, to smoking history, and to Karnofsky score respectively, with statistical significance (P<0.05,P<0.01). The qi-yin deficiency syndrome was common in male, smoking patients, while the qi-deficiency and phlegm-dampness syndrome and yin-deficiency and heat-toxin syndrome were common in female and non-smokers. The qin-yin deficiency syndrome was common in patients of Karnofsky score≥60, and qi-deficiency and phlegm-dampness syndrome was most frequently found in <60 scores group.Conclusion The histological types of central air way non-small cell lung cancer are related to age, gender and smoking history of patients. Patients with different ages, genders and smoking histories distribute differently in TCM syndrome.

Objective To explore the clinical efficacy and safety of bevacizumab combined with docetaxel in treatment of advanced cervix cancer.Methods Seventy-five patients with advanced cervix cancer accepted in our hospital from April 2011 to April 2016 were selected and divided into observation group with 43 cases and control group with 32 cases according to different treatment methods.Patients in control group were given docetaxel,and patients in observation group were combined with bevacizumab on the basis of control group.The clinical efficacy,adverse reactions,life quality and pharmacoeconomics of two groups were observed and compared.Results The total efficacy and clinical control rate of observation group were all higher than control group with statistically significance (P < 0.05).The adverse reaction rate of two groups had no difference.Total efficacy of life quality improvement was 83.72%,which was obviously higher than control group 62.50% with statistically significance (P < 0.05).The average cost of observation group was (83 ± 10) thousands,of control group was (18± 6) thousands.The cost of observation group was obviously higher than control group with statistically significance (P < 0.05).Conclusion Using bevacizumab combined with docetaxel in treatment of advanced cervix cancer has better effect clinical but costs much than docetaxel.We should set on treatment according to patients' own situation.

Objective To study the expression of secondary lymphoid-tissue chemokine (SLC)、 CCR7 and its correlation with clinical pathology and lymphangiogenesis in pancreatic adenocarcinoma (PAC). Methods The tissue specimens including PAC, the cancerous peripheral tissues, the normal pancreatic tissues and peripheral lymph nodes were obtained from 30 patients with PAC. The expressions of SLC and CCR7 in these tissues were assayed by immunohistochemical staining and reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR). MIND marked by VEGFR-3 was detected by morphometric analysis, and the relationship between MLND and clinical pathology of PAC was analyzed. Results In all the specimens, the positive rates of SLC protein in PAC, the cancerous peripheral tissues, the normal pancreatic tissues and peripheral lymph nodes were respectively 16. 7%, 43. 3%, 76. 7% and 46. 6%. The positive rates of CCR7 protein in PAC, the cancerous peripheral tissues, the normal pancreatic tissues and peripheral lymph nodes were respectively 76. 7%, 66. 7%, 30. 0% and 70. 0%. The results of RT-PCR and fluorescence quantitative real-time PCR indicated that the expression levels of CCR7 mRNA in PAC tissues, the cancerous peripheral tissues and peripheral lymph nodes were higher than that in the normal pancreatic tissues ( P <0. 01 ). There was no significant correlation between the expression of SLC protein with MLVD of PAC ( P > 0. 05 ). There was 23 specimens that the CCR7 protein was positive, and among these specimens the MIND was higher than that in negative group of CCR7 protein (P = 0.004). Conclusions The expression of SLC was not related to lymphatic metastasis and TNM stages of PAC. The expression of CCR7 was significantly associated with lymphatic metastasis and TNM stages of PAC, and the high expression of CCR7 in PAC tissues was significantly associated with lymphangiogenesis of PAC.
