Objective To improve the diagnosis and treatment of renal inflammatory pseudotumor (RIP). Methods 10 cases of RIP treated from 1970 to 1999 were reviewed and the diagnosis and treatment were discussed. Results The main clinical manifestation of RIP were fever,lumbago and hematuria.6 of 10 underwent nephrectomy because of the suspicion of kidney cancer whereas the other 4 were cured by antibiotics without recurrence on following up for 1~5 years. Conclusions RIP is rare,the diagnosis being based on clinical symptoms together with dynamic B ultrasound and CT scan.Needle biopsy is indicated to establish the diagnosis if necessary.Antibiotics is usually effective.

Objective To analyze the clinical features of patients with hemophagocytic syndrome (HPS) in autoimmune diseases (AID). Methods We collected the data of 11 patients with AID complicated with HPS in Peking Union Medical College Hospital from 2004 to 2009. The underlying diseases, clinical features, laboratory findings and treatment outcomes were retrospectively analyzed. Results Of the 11 patients,3 were male,8 were female. Mean age was (30. 7 ± 18. 3) years. The underlying diseases included Still disease ( n = 4 ), systemic lupus erythematosus ( n = 3 ), and rheumatoid arthritis, primary Sj(o)gren's syndrome, Wegener granulomatosis and Crohn disease in each one case. HPS was associated with the onset of AID ( n = 4), active infection alone ( n = 1 ) and both factors ( n = 6 ). HPS was clinically characterized by high fever ( 100% ), hepatosplenomegaly ( 72. 7% ) , lymphadenopathy ( 63.3% ) and central nervous system involvement (36. 3% ). 4 patients presented with disseminated intravascular coagulation(DIC) (36. 3% ). Laboratory data mainly manifested with cytopenia ( 100% ), liver dysfunction ( 100% ), hypofibrinogenemia ( 62. 5% ), hypertriglyceridemia ( 81.8% ), serum ferritin > 500 μg/L (100%), low NK-cell activity(80% ) and hemophagocytosis in bone marrow( 100% ). Based on treating underlying infections and use of corticosteroids and immunosuppressive agents in combination with intravenous immunoglobulins(IVIG) therapy, 5 patients recovered , 6 patients died. The mortality rate was 54. 5%. DIC were associated with mortality ( r = 0. 69, P = 0. 019 ). Conclusion The episode of HPS always occurs simultaneously with multiple system involvement that was often difficult to distinguish from active AID. The present of DIC on HPS related with poor prognosis and high mortality. Corticosteroids and immunodepressant and IVIG may improve the prognosis of HPS, while anti-infection therapy is very important and necessary for the patients accompany with active infection.

In this paper,we analyzed one case of primary multifocal extranodal non-Hodgkin's lymphoma and reviewed the related literatures.We investigated the clinical data of this case with primary multifocal extranodal lymphoma and retrospected the related references.The key words,primary extranodal lymphoma and multifocal,were used to search Pubmed and Wanfang Database,and finally only three cases were found.The 68-yea-old woman was confirmatively diagnosed as primary multifocal extranodal B cell non-Hodgkin's lymphoma.The positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT) scan showed multiple hypermetabolic lesions in the left humerus,both kidneys and ileum.The confirmative diagnosis was based on clinical manifestations and serological tests,imaging features of CT and PET/CT,and especially on the histopathological and immunohistochemical studies.After one cycle chemotherapy (rituximab,Vincristine and prednisone) and another cycle (rituximab,Vincristine,cyclophosphamide and prednisone),a repeat PET/CT scan showed a complete metabolic resolution of the lesions in the kidneys and ileum,and a partial metabolic resolution of the left humerus.After four cycles of chemotherapy,there were new extensive involvements of the right supraclavicular and intrapulmonary lymph nodes,bilateral pleural and pericardium,and the patient gave up chemotherapy.This case demonstrated the imaging findings of an uncommon primary multifocal extranodal lymphoma in left humerus,both kidneys and ileum,and highlighted the usefulness of CT and PET/CT scan in identifying the extent of disease involvement,in guiding a biopsy,and in assessing the treatment response of lymphoma.It is essential to differentiate between primary multifocal extranodal lymphoma and lymphoma extensive metastases.

Objective To discuss how to reduce the incidence of postoperative infection and am-putation of patients after earthquake.Methods The wound infection and corresponding therapeutic outcome were analyzed in 592 patients in front line hospitals and station hospitals.Results The inci-dence of infection was 30. 7% in patients treated in front hospital within 8 hours post-trauma but 79. 9% after 8 hours post-trauma. There included 1 patient(0. 2%) with amputation due to clostridial myonecro-sis and 5(1. 2%)with amputation due to serious infection. Incidelice of postoperative wound infection was 7. 1% after selective operation for close injury. The incidence of infection in patients in station hospi-tals was 50. 8%, with no amputation, because they received debridement and antibiotics in site or front line hospitals. No postoperative infection was found in patients with close injury treated with selective op-eration in station hospitals. The major bacteria of wound infection in either front line hospitals or station hospitals were enterococcus faecalis and Eschrichia Coli. Incidence of combined infection was higher than that of single infection. And Gram-Negative bacillus infection exceeded Gram-Positive bacillus infection. The major wound infection obrained effective control through treatment with sensitive antibiotics.Con-clusions After earthqiale, the incidence of infection in patients with open injury is high, with high am-putation rate due to serious infection. Therefore, we propose performing as soon as possible debridement and external fixation with antibiotic treatment but reducing internal fixation. The postoperative infection late of patients with close injury in front line hospitals is much higher than that in station hospitals;their-fore, patients with stable vital signs should be transported to station hospitals as early as possible in order to reduce incidenee of infection.

Objective To discuss the application value and improvement of principle of multi-echelon medical care in emergent rescue of the injured in Chinese Wenchuau earthquake. Methods The author analyzed and evaluated the medical rescue that was done at disaster site, in the front line hospital and higher level hospitals during earthquake. Results A total of 4 689 patients were treated at disaster site, including 413 patients with severe injury, of whom 3 died. Different kinds of operations including debridement were performed at disaster site, with infection incidence of open wound was nearly 80%. In the front hne hospital, 1 400 patients were treated, with 200 operations done. Of all, 110 patients with severe trauma were treated emergenfly, with an amputation rate of 3.0% and postoperative infection incidence of 66.8%. In the station hospitals, 125 patients received definite surgeries, with 1-5 surgeries per injury site. There was no postoperative cross infection, amputation or death. Conclusions The multi-echelon medical care is the basic mode for medical rescue of large number of patients in natural disaster rescue. First aid at disaster site should be performed as early as possible. Transportation is crucial for successful rescue and an improved patient grading system can help increase the efficiency of rescue. The front line hospitals should mainly provide life support, debridement and fixation of simple fracture, while the specific treatment and definite surgery should be carried out in the station hospitals.
