Objective To explore the method for establish the temporal lobe epilepsy model in SD rats with stereotactic technique and to study the characteristic of electroencephalography (EEG) after epileptic seizure. Methods Kainic acid was injected into right hippocampus via stereotactic technique in 20 rats, and the behavior of rat was recorded by a video camera. The electrical activity changes of brain were recorded by EEG in bilateral hippocampus, amygdala and frontal lobe. Results According to Racine's scale, 6 rats were typeⅤ,10 rats were type Ⅳ,3 rats were type Ⅲ,1 rat was type Ⅱ. The spike wave was originated from hippocampus and spread to amygdala and frontal lobe. Pathologic changes showed that prolonged seizures induced pyramidal cell loss and death in hippocampus. Conclusions The method to establish kainic acid induced temporal lobe epilepsy model with stereotactic technique was credible, economical and useful. The spike wave originated from hippocampus was the basic feature of EEG of temporal lobe epilepsy model in rats.

Objective To explore the effect of breast-conserving operation for the treatment of early-stage breast cancer. Methods From November 1999 to Octorber 2001, the patients with early-stage breast cancer were treated with breast-conserving surgery followed by radical irradiation according to the patients' will. The cosmetic results and quality of life were analyzed after surgery and radiation. Results In all the patients received operation treatment from 1999 to 2001, eighteen patients were treated with breast-conserving surgery with breast conservation rate of 10.2%, of which 7 cases with quadrantetomy plus axillary lymph node dissection (ALND), 8 cases with lumpectomy plus ALND and 3 cases with lumpectomy. Pathological staging was as follow: 4 cases in stage 0, 12 cases in stage Ⅰ, and 2 cases in stage Ⅱ. All cases were followed-up. The cosmetic results were good in 94%(17/18) and fair in 6%(1/18). All the patients had not local recurrence and distant metastasis. Conclusions Breast-conserving surgery followed by radiation therapy is superior to mastectomy in terms of improving breast cosmesis and quality of life. Postoperative radiation therapy does not affect the cosmetic result.

Objective To discuss the clinical features and prognostic factors of primary testicular lymphoma (PTL). Methods A retrospective review was performed based on the clinical records of 33 PTL cases treated at Tianjin Medical University Cancer Hospital from June 1977 to May 2009.Drawing survival curves by Kaplan-Meier method, using Log-rank test to the univariate analysis, and multivariate analysis by COX regression model to evaluate independent prognostic factors. Results The median age of patients was 62 years at presentation(range 33-81 years). Painless testicular swelling was the initial symptom. The majority of histological subtype was B cell lymphoma, 48% of which was diffuse large B-cell non-Hodgkin's lymphoma. By postoperative chemotherapy and/or radiotherapy, 23 patients achieved complete remission and 7 achieved partial remission, with a median follow-up of 23 months (4-231 months). The 5 years and 10 years of overall survival was 39.1% and 19.5%. The effect of patients who received chemotherapy≥4 cycles and B cell lymphoma patients combination with Rituximab were better. In multivariate analysis, Ann Arbor stage, B symptoms, age of patient and number of extranode site were independent prognostic factors of survival. Conclusions Primary non-Hodgkin lymphoma should be treated with multi-modality strategies. Treatment with doxorubicin-based chemotherapy after orchiectomy should be recommended. Ann Arbor stage, B symptoms, age of patient and number of extranode site were independent prognostic factors of survival in PTL.
