Objective To investigate the clinicopathologieal features of serous microcystic adenoma of the pancreas. Methods Clinicopathological analysis, histochemieal and immunohistochemical studies were performed in 12 cases of serous microcystic adenoma of the pancreas with follow-up. Results The patients included 9 females and 3 males who ranged in age from 35 to 70 (mean=51.5). Seven patients were discov-ered by check-up incidentally and 5 for the symptoms as upper abdominal uncomfortable or pain. Tumors varied in size from 2.0 cm to 13 cm in maximal diameter(mean=6.0 cm), and all had a multicystic appear-ance. Histologically, all tumors were composed of numerous microcysts lined by a single layer of cuboidal or flattened cells. The tumor cells contained clear cytoplasm with glycogen and centrally located round nuclei mostly uniform without any atypia. Mitoses were very rare or absent. Histochemically, the tumor cells were positive for PAS and negative for AB-PAS. Immunohistochemieally, the tumor cells revealed diffuse positivi-ty of cytokeratins and epithelial membrane antigen, whereas CEA, CgA, Syn, CD34, Vimentin, P53 and S-100 protein were negative. Follow-up in 10 patients (range from 12 to 71 months) showed no recurrence of serous cystadenomas. Conclusion Serous microcystic adenoma of the pancreas is an extremely rare tumor. It is often non-symptomatic. Its diagnosis is mainly dependent on its unique morphological immunohistochemical features. It's biology behavior is necessary to study.

Objective To provide a reliable model of orthotopic liver transplantation in rats and study surgical techniques for improving the quality of the operation. Methods The model was established by modified Kamada’s cuff technique. The time of cold preservation was 60 min. The successful rate of the method and one-week survival rate were observed. Results In 135 cases undergoing orthotopic liver transplantation, one-week survival rate was 89.2% . The successful rate of the model was 95.6% . Conclusions The key for success in rat liver transplantation is the shortened anhepatic period and delicate and skillful surgical manipulation. Also some detailed modified techniques should be used.

Objective To investigate the application value of real clinical case centered situation simulation examination model in clinical medicine. Methods Two classes were randomly selected from 2008 grade clinical medicine majors, respectively as test group(n=158) and control group(n=156). Final examination of test group includes usual performance, case-oriented situation simulation examination (COSSE) and final written examination. Traditional methods were used in control group. The same paper was used in final written examination of the two groups. Scores of written examination and question-naires were used to evaluate the COSSE model. Data were processed using SPSS 16.0 statistical software;t and chi-square tests were used to analyze the data;P<0.05 signifies that the difference is statistically sig-nificant. Results Scores of final examination in test group were higher than those in control group(P<0.001). Times of independent completion of history taking, physical examinations and medical record writing were more in test group than in control group(P=0.002,0.017,0.048). Conclusions Contents and methods of COSSE is conducive to improving student's professional comprehensive ability.

Objective To identify the necessity to carry out optimization procedure in routine digital radiography (DR) by evaluating changes of patient radiation dose and image waste ratio before and after optimization.Methods Two hundred patients with near-standard body build were enrolled in the study.Half of them undertook routine examination,and the others undertook the examination with bestlyoptimized protocol.The dose-area product (DAP) and entrance surface dose (ESD) were recorded.The image waste ratios in 2 groups were calculated and the reasons for image waste were analyzed.The radiation dose and image waste ratio before and after optimization were compared.Results The ESD,DAP and image waste ratio in bestly-optimized radiography were significantly lower than those in non-optimized radiography (z =9.31,16.22,P＜0.05; x2 =36.5,P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion Using the bestlyoptimized digital radiography,the patient radiation dose and image waste ratio are effectively reduced.

A comparative study on the cellular survival of grafts and the behavior improvement in the rats was performed following tissue transplantation of either fresh or freezing-stored adrenal medulla. The fresh or freezing-stored adrenal medullary tissues were transplanted into the head of caudate nucleus in the animal models with unilateral 6-hydroxydopamine lesions of the substantia nigra. Experimental groups got some improvement after operation in rotation behavior induced by apomorphine, and the differences were significant between experimental and control groups. Among the transplanted rats, those received fresh tissue seemed to show more improvement than those received freezing-stored tissue, but the statistical difference was not significant. With regard to fluorescent intensity of the adrenal cells, it showed to be stronger in the experimental group received fresh graft than the group received freezing-stored graft, but the difference was no statistically significant either. No essential difference could be found between experimental groups as to the cellular apperance and staining features in the grafts.

Objective To study the pathological,ultrastructural and immunohistochemical features of kidney oncocytoma (RO). Methods The clinical and histological features of 13 patients (5 men and 8 women;mean age,58 years,age 44 -78 years) with RO were observed.Immunohistochemical staining was performed on paraffin-embedded tissues with a panel of antibodies including vimentin,EMA,ckpan,CK7,CK18,E-cadherin,CD10,RCC,CD117,34βE12,HMB45,s-100 and Ki-67.Of the 13 cases,10were found incidentally during a health examination while the other three cases presented with lumbago and discomfort of the lumber.Four cases were analyzed by electron microscopy.Eleven were treated with radical nephrectomy and 2 with partial nephrectomy. Results Histologically,the tumor cells were mainly arranged in closely packed nests,aciniform or tubule with an occasional microcystic pattern in loose edematous hypocellular fibrous stroma.Tumor cells had moderate to abundant granular eosinophilic cytoplasm with a small,round and uniform nucleus containing finely and evenly dispersed chromati.However,focal nuclear atypia were observed with no mitotic activity.Immunohistochemically,all cases were diffusely positive for CK18 and showed variable immunoreactivity for E-cadherin,CD117,CD10 and CK7.Twelve cases were positive for EMA. All cases were negative for vimentin,34βE12,HMB45 and s-100.The proliferative index (Ki-67) was very low in all cases,with less than 1％ of the nuclei labeled.Electronic microscopy showed the cytoplasm had abundant mitochondria with lamellar cristae.Follow-up on 10 patients ( range from 2 to 67months) showed no recurrence or metastasis. Conclusions Tumor cells arranged in nests with loose hypocellu]ar and edematous stroma is the most important histological feature of RO.The immunohistochemical features could be helpful for both diagnosis and differential diagnosis.

Objective To investigate the clinical characteristics of diffuse alveolar hemorrhage. Methods 12 patients with diffuse alveolar hemorrhage hospitalized in Guangzhou NO.1 Hospital were included in the research, whose clinical characteristics were analyzed. Results 7 cases of the 12 diffuse alveolar hemorrhage cases were male and 5 cases were female. 8 cases were caused by ANCA associated vasculitis , 1 cases by connective tissue disease, 1 cases by poisoning, and 2 cases of unknown etiology (medication could be considered). The clinical manifestations were fever (91.67%), hemoptysis (100%), anemia (100%), and dyspnea (3.33%). Conclusion Diffuse alveolar hemorrhage is a life-threatening clinical syndrome. It can be caused by many causes. It should be considered if there is the presence of hemoptysis, dyspnea, anemia, etc. Timely examination and early intervention can effectively improve the prognosis of the disease.

Objective To develop rat models of graft cholangiopathies and evaluated their values.Methods Four groups were constructed.The long-term cold preservation group(n=24) contained homogeneic inbred rat liver orthotopic transplantations (ROLT) performed in a rat combination of ♂ Wistar→ ♂ Wistar with the donor liver preserved in 4℃ UW for 12 h,the vessels reconstructed by the two-cuff method,and the hepatic artery and extrahepatic bile duct rebuilt by a stent.The chronic rejection group (n=24)(CsA 1 mg · kg-1 · d-1,cold preserved for 1 h) was allogeneic inbred ♂ DA→♂ Lewis rats induced for ROLT,and the revascularization methods were the same as the longterm cold preservation group.The control group (n=24) (cold preserved for 1 h) was homogeneic inbred ♂ Wistar→♂ Wistar rats with ROLT techniques the same as above.The sham group (n=24)was ♂ Wistar rats that had an exploratory laparotomy.The animals were followed for 16 weeks,complications were compared,and liver tissues were harvested.Histopathological and morphometric techniques were used to construct a time course of histological changes after liver transplantation.Results In both the long-term cold preservation group and chronic rejection group,the rats recovered slowly,the incidence of complications and mortality were higher than those of other groups,and the intrahepatic bile duct proliferation and immune cell infiltration were noticeable after the operation.In 16 weeks,the hepatic lobules were separated by the proliferating bile ducts,the normal structure of hepatic lobules disappeared,many biliary epithelial cells necrosed with disappearing cytoplasms,and there was immune cell infiltration and obliterative arteriopathy.Conclusions The rat models of graft cholangiopathies induced by long-term cold preservation or chronic rejection donor livers are stable and easily standardized.This model is ideal for studying the pathogenesis and prevention of graft cholangiopathies.
