BACKGROUND: Tissue-engineered spinal cord has brought new treatment ideas for spinal cord repair.OBJECTIVE: To construct the tissue-engineered spinal cord by chitosan alginate scaffold and adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells (ADMSCs), and to investigate its repairing effects on acute spinal cord injury in rats.METHODS: The spinal cord hemisection model was established in 48 Sprague-Dawley rats and then, rat models were randomly divided into four groups: model group, scaffold group, ADMSCs group and tissue-engineered spinal cord group,followed by direct suturing of the dura mater, implantation of chitosan alginate scaffold, implantation of ADMSCs, and implantation of tissue-engineered spinal cord, respectively. The limb motor function of rats was evaluated based on the Basso-Beattie-Bresnahan score at 1, 3, 7 weeks after transplantation. Immunofluorescence staining and hematoxylin-eosin staining of the spinal cord specimens were performed at 7 weeks after transplantation.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: (1) Motor function of the hind limb: At 3 and 7 weeks after transplantation, the Basso-Beattie-Bresnahan score was highest in the tissue-engineered spinal cord followed, followed by the ADMSCs and scaffold groups, and lowest in the model group (P < 0.05). (2) Immunofluorescence and hematoxylin-eosin staining: in the model group, the spinal cord injury area was infiltrated with a large number of fibroblasts and inflammatory cells. In the scaffold group, there was no scar formation; neuron-specific enolase-positive cells, glial fibrillary acidic protein-positive cells and a few neurofilament protein 200-positive cells were found in the junctional area. In the ADMSCs group, the spinal cord injury area was filled with scar tissue, and a large number of glial fibrillary acidic protein-positive cells were found. In the tissue-engineered spinal cord group, there was no scar tissue, and there were a large number of neuron-specific enolase-positive cells, a small amount of CM-Dil-labeled ADMSCs and more glial fibrillary acidic protein-positive cells. Neurofilament protein 200 positive cells were connected to each other at the junction. These findings indicate that the tissue-engineered spinal cord constructed by chitosan alginate scaffold and ADMSCs can promote spinal cord repair after acute spinal cord injury.

Objective To evaluate the role of radiotherapy in the management of dermatofibrosarcoma protuberans. Methods Between 1995 and 1999, 18 patients with pathologically confirmed dermatofibrosarcoma protuberans were retrospectively analyzed. Nine patients were referred to our hospital for primary treatment and the remaining 9 patients came with recurrent disease. Fifteen of 18 patients received surgery followed by radiotherapy. Among them, 14 patients underwent complete resection and 1 partial resection. Majority of patients received 50~60 ?Gy. One patient received 37.5 ?Gy because he refrained from further treatment. Two patients received 52 ?Gy and 50 ?Gy due to unresectable extensive lesion. One of 18 patients was treated by total resection alone.Results The median of follow up time was 26 months with a range of 0.5~5 years. Sixteen patients (8.9%) are disease free. One patient developed local recurrence and one died of malignant progression. These two patients were treated with radiotherapy alone or surgery only. The local control rates were 100% (15/15) for patients who were treated with surgery and radiotherapy. Conclusions Postoperative radiotherapy is able to decrease the local recurrence rate in dermatofibrosarcoma protuberans.
