BACKGROUND: The expression of Fas antigen and P53 protein in colorectal cancer could reflect the biological character and the prognosis of the tumor.OBJECTIVE: To investigate the relationship between the expression of Fas antigen and P53 protein in coloreetal cancer and the tumor-related biological characters.DESIGN: A controlled experiment by introducing pathological specimens as subjects.SETTING: The study was conducted in the Department of Pathology of Xijing Hospital Affiliated with the Fourth Military Medical University of Chinese PLA.PARTICIPANT S: Totally 32 pathological specimens of colorectal cancer were randomly selected from the Department of Surgery of Xijing Hospital between January 1995 and October 1998. Sixteen normal large intestine tissues were selected form the cadaver of pathology department.METHODS: The expression of Fas antigen and P53 protein in 32 colorectal cancer tissue and 16 normal intestine tissue were tested and compared with immunohistochemical method.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Fas antigen and P53 protein expression in coloreetal cancer and normal intestine, and the clinical indicators of patients with colorectal cancer.RESULTS: The expression of Fas antigen was positive in normal large intestine tissue while the expression of P53 protein was negative. The positive rate of Fas antigen expression in colorectal cancer was 41% (13/32), while the positive rate of P53 expression in colorectal caner was 53% (17/32). Fas antigen significantly decreased in colorectal cancer tissues. The expression of Fas antigen was correlated with the histological type of colorectal cancer and its liver metastasis( P < 0.05) . And the expression of P53 protein was correlated with the liver metastasis of colorectal cancer( P < 0. 05).CONCLUSION: The expression of Fas antigen significantly decreases in colorectal cancer. The higher the malignance is, the more significant less the expression is. Fas antigen does not express in liver metastasis patients. P53protein had positive expression in colorectal cancer tissues, especially in patients with liver metastasis. The reduction and deletion of Fas antigen expression and the excessive expression of P53 protein indicate poor prognosis.

Hepatic nodules in patients with Budd-Chiari syndrome (B-CS) are identified in clinical work and the differentiating diagnosis is very important for making the treatment strategy.Most B-CS patients with hepatic nodules have nonspecific clinical manifestations.Ultrasonography,computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging are often used for differentiating diagnosis.According to the results of retrospective study on clinical and imaging data of 51 B-CS patients with hepatic nodules,we draw a conclusion that the differentiating diagnosis of hepatic nodules in patients with B-CS depends on imaging characteristics.Different treatment strategies are adopted according to the comprehensive analysis of these imaging data and satisfactory results can be achieved.

A rarely reported postoperative complication following biliary surgery,and to discuss its possible mechanism.This article summarizes I reported HSB case that developed after laparoscopic cholecystectomy in our department and 9 other cases reported in literature.HSB occurred most frequently after simple cholecystectomy in addition to post operative bile duct exploration with cholecystectomy or endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography.The main clinical presentation of HSB was paroxysmal colic in the upper abdomen early in the postoperative period,which could be induced after a meal.Imaging revealed subcapsular hepatic fluid collection,and successful treatment involved placement of a percutaneous drain in the biloma.The mechanism of HSB still needs to be clarified even though it is a rarely reported postoperative complication following biliary surgery.We hypothesize,after analyzing these 10 cases,that sphincter of Oddi dysfunction after biliary surgery and the subsequent persistence of high biliary system pressure may be the root cause of HSB formation.More awareness should be paid to the changes of the sphincter's motility after biliary surgery and its related complications (biliary colic,HSB etc.).
