Head and neck surgery is a relatively young discipline. Since 1937,it has made important advances. In the past, the patients had to sacrifice their involved organs in order to survive, but now we have to think not only of the survival rate of the patients,but also should pay more and more attention to improve their quality of life. The plan of treatmant must consider multimodality therapy and function preservation. To attain this goal, we should pay attention to laparoscopic surgery and sentinal node biopsy as well as possibility of gene therapy in head and neck tumors. In addition, we should investigate to application of molecular biology in head and neck surgery.

Objective To analyze the change in immune function and therapeutic effectiveness of children with im-mune thrombocytopenic purpura and Helicobacter pylori(H. pylori)infection. Methods Eighty hospitalized chil-dren with thrombocytopenic purpura between March 2011 and March 2012 were as observation group,and then sub-divided into infected group and non-infected group according to whether they were infected with H. pylori;80 healthy children were as control group . Lymphocyte subsets ,clinical therapeutic effectiveness and recurrence rate among three groups were compared. Results The positive rate of H. pylori in observation group was significantly higher than control group(55.00% [44/80]vs 2.50% [2/80];χ2= 12.48,P= 0.008). There was significant differences in CD4+,CD4+/CD8+ ,and CD19+T lymphocyte among three groups (all P<0.05);CD4+ and CD4+/CD8+ T lymphocyte in infected group was significantly lower than non-infected group respectively ([13.40±4.65]% )vs [28.56± 3.82]% ;[0.69±0.18]% vs [1.04±0.23]% ),and CD19+T lymphocyte in infected group was significantly higher than non-infected group ([45.21±10.20]% vs [22.05±2.23]% );CD4+ and CD4+/CD8+T lymphocyte in non-in-fected group and infected group was significantly lower than control group ([40.20±3.42]% ,[1.54±0.42]% respec-tively),and CD19+T lymphocyte was significantly higher than control group ([11.02±2.89]% ). The overall therapeu-tic effectiveness in infected group and non-infected group was 90.91% and 91.67% respectively(P>0.05). The recur-rence rate of thrombocytopenic purpura after anti-H.pylori infection therapy in infected group was significantly lower than non-infected group (20.45% vs 30.56% ;χ2= 6.396,P= 0.038). Conclusion Detection of immune function is helpful for clinical diagnosis of H. pylori infection associated with immune thrombocytopenic purpura .

OBJECTIVE:To establish a HPLC method for content determination of ginsenoside Rg1 in Fufangtianqi dropping pills.METHODS:The separation was performed on a Shim-pack VP-ODS column at the 25℃,the mobile phase was composed of a mixture of acetonitrile-water(25∶75),the flow rate was 1.0 ml/min,the ultraviolet wavelength was 210nm,the samplesize was 20?l.RESULTS:The linear range of gindenoside Rg1 was 37.2～186.0?g/ml(r=0.9 999),and the average recovery was 101.01%(RSD=0.90%,n=5).CONCLUSIONS:This method is simple,sensitive and accurate,and can be available for the quality control of Fufangtianqi dropping pills.

Purpose：To determine the treatments and prognostic predictors of malignant melanoma of the head and neck. Methods：Surgical treatment and outcome was analyzed for 28 patients with malignant melanoma of the head and neck at department of the head and neck of our hospital (1984-1994). Results：23 patients underwent local excised as the first treatment, and local recurrence was demonstrated in 8 (34.8%). Margin of resection of primary melanoma was divided into narrow excision (≤2 cm) and wide excision (＞2 cm), and 5-year survival was 58% and 40%(P＜0.01). According to surgical methods, 5-year survival of WE, WE/END and WE/TLND were 80%, 80% and 39%. Conclusions：An excision with 2 cm margin is safe procedure for primary tumor of malignant melanoma of the head and neck. Neck dissection may not be practiced until neck lymph node is positive. Neck dissections differ from the positions of the primary tumors, and the flaps must be raised preferably superficial to the platysma.

AIM: To establish the method for quality control of Quzhi Capsules(Radix et Rhizoma Rhei, Semen Cassiae, Herba Artemisiae Scopariae, Rhizoma Atractylodis, etc.). METHODS: Herba Artemisiae and Rhizoma Atractylodis in this medicine were identified by TLC. The content of chrysophanol was determined by HPLC on ODS column. The mobile phase was composed of methanol 0.5% phosphoric acid(85∶15,v∶v) and detection wavelength was at 254nm. RESULTS: The spots on TLC plates were clear without interference in the blank reference. The linearity of HPLC was good( r =0.9999), and the average recovery was 101.00%, RSD =1.3%. CONCLUSION: This method is simple, sensitive and accurate, and available for control of Quzhi Capsules.

Autoimmune hemolytic anemia is a disorder of immune function caused by various reasons, by produceing autoantibody or complement which can react with erythrocyte autoantigen, increasing the destruction of red blood cell and beyond the compensatory ability of bone marrow hematopoiesis.Children usually have acute onset and the clinical manifestations are related to the pathogenesis.As the first-line treatment of glucocorticoids, Most children respond well to glucocorticoids.Some children suffer from steroid dependence and resistance; or recurrence due to different types of antibodies, often requiring second-line treatment, such as splenectomy, immunosuppressive, etc.This article reviews the recent progress in the treatment of children with autoimmune hemolytic anemia.
