[ABSTRACT]OBJECTIVETo observe the short term effects and adverse effects of induction chemotherapy with Paclitaxel,Cisplatin and Fluorouracil(TPF) in locally advanced squamous cell cancer of hypopharynx. METHODS78 cases locally advanced squamous-cell cancer of hypopharynx form jan 2011 to oct 2013 for the first time treated by TPF scheme,after 2 cycles,to recheck CT scan and evaluate therapeutic effective.RESULTSAll 78 cases patients achieved 156 cycles chemotherapy,CR was 4 cases (5.1%),PR 55 cases (70.5%),SD 17 cases (21.8%), PD 2 cases (2.6%). Total effective rate (CR+PR) was 75.6%,and with low incidence ofⅢ/Ⅳ grade side effect. Logistic regression analysis shows that there is a significant correlation between effective rate and low differentiation cancer.CONCLUSIONFor locally advanced squamous-cell cancer of hypopharynx patients,the TPF chemotherapy scheme showed good therapeutic effective and safety,could be a choice for the induction chemotherapy treatment in locally advanced squamouscell cancer of hypopharynx. The patients with low differentiation cancer may have benefit from the induction chemotherapy.

Objective To study the clinical characteristics and analyze the treatment of primary ocular adnexal lymphoma (POAL). Methods A retrospective review was performed based on the clinical records of 26 POAL cases, who were treated from June 1999 to June 2009. The clinical manifestations,imaging features, diagnosis approaches and treatment of them were analyzed. Results The main symptoms were a slowly growing painless mass, exophthalmia and red eyelid. Mostly, imaging finding shows casting like. 50 % of POAL was at the orbit. 22 patients w ere B-cell origin [13 patients were extranodal marginal zone B-cell lymphoma-mucosal-associated lymphoid tissue (MALT) lymphoma], 2 patients were NK/T cell lymphoma. 76.9 % patients were in stage Ⅰ -Ⅱ. Surgery, radiotherapy and chemotherapy were most common treatment modalities for POAL. Conclusion Most POAL were low-grade B-cell lymphoma, with MALT by far the most common type. POAL was easy to be misdiagnosed due to non specific clinical manifestations.Imaging finding was helpful to diagnosis, but could not reliably distinguish between benign and malignant. The invasive biopsy is the main diagnosis approach. Radiotherapy had been the standard treatment for low-grade POAL. High-grade or infiltrating peri-orbit need combine chemotherapy. lmmunotherapy and molecular targeted therapy were the direction of future research.
