Objective To evaluate the effect of vacuum suction on shaping sliming and breast anaplasty, to expand indications of vacuum suction, and to improve its result. Methods Based on injection of swelling solution more than routine dosage, vacuum suction was used in totally 825 cases, including local fat deposit in face or other sites of body, macromastia in female, hypermastia in male, lump after breast anaplasty by autograft of fat granule, as well as infection and induration after breast anaplasty by injection of polyacrylamide. Results Satisfactory rate of subjects to vacuum suction was up to 96 %, and clinical efficacy rate of the operation was 100 %. As to sliming cases, there were significant decreases in their measurements of figures or dimensions. In case of the lump from breast shaping by fat granule autograft, as well as the infection and induration caused by injection of polyacrylamide during breast anaplasty, vacuum suction could resolve all of them wonderfully. Conclusions When used properly, vacuum suction may play an excellent role in shaping sliming and breast anaplasty, and it can also resolve those complications brought up in breast shaping by fat granules autograftor and by polyacrylamide injection. Vacuum suction decreases the pain and cicatrisation caused by invasion surgery significantly.

Objective To investigate methods and experience of autologous granular fat transplantation by correction of aging face. Methods 178 cases of aging face subjects were treated by liposuction. Then autologous granular fat was harvested by liposuction,centrifuged and purified, and injected into marked areas of aging face. The injection process should be controled by multilevel and multiple tennel, in order to supplement the loss of facial soft tissue volume and improve the aging face. Results The follow-up period ranged from 3 months to 3 years. All the subjects had a satisfactory results with no obvious complications such as fat liquefaction, infection and ulceration. The effect of autologous granular fat transplantation was obvious and permanent. Conclusions Autologous granular fat transplantation is a safe and effective surgical technique for facial soft tissue augmentation that can effectively improve aging face and worthy of clinical application.

Objective To explore the imaging manifestations of low-grade central osteosarcoma (LGCOS) and discuss their pathological features.Methods Twelve patients of LGCOS proved by surgery and pathology were analyzed retrospectively and a review of related literature was performed.All twelve patients had plain X-ray,1 1 patients CT examination,and 10 patients contrast-enhanced MR scan.Imaging features of the LGCOS were summarized,their clinical and pathological manifestations were discussed for differential diagnosis.Their prognosis was evaluated with followed up examination.Results Of the 12patients with LGCOS,six tumors were located in the distal femur,3 in the proximal tibia,2 in the proximal femur and 1 in the talus.The radiographic features of LGCOS were variable.There were 7 patients with predominantly osteolytic destruction,3 patients with mixed sclerotic and lyric changes,with well-defined margins,2 patients with Osteogenic changes on X-ray.On CT,9 patients showed a clear cortical breach,5 patients with soft tissue involvement,6 patients with peripheral incompletely sclerotic zone,2 patients with periosteal reaction.On MRI,there were 10 patients with abnormal signal in medullary cavity,8 patients with soft tissue masses,and all 10 patients exhibited contrast enhancement.The microscopic features of LGCOS were characteristically bland,comprising spindle cells arranged in interlacing fascicles in a heavily collagenous background with variable bone or osteoid production.There were mild nuclear atypia and rare mitoses.In four patients,misdiagnoses were made by biopsy or surgical pathology as fibrous dysplasia or fibrous histiocytoma and other benign lesions,all four patients had postoperative recurrence.Conclusions LGCOS should be differentiated form fibrous dysplasia,non-ossifying fibroma,and other benign lesions.An accurate diagnosis can be made in most cases by careful pathological and radiological correlation.

Objective:To explore the method and experience of augmentation mammoplasty with autologous fat transplantation assisted by external expander.Methods:From January 2013 to December 2020, 352 female patients (698 breasts, 346 bilateral and 6 unilateral), aged from 18 to 55 years, with an average age of 41.5 years, were admitted to the Department of Cosmetic Surgery, Beijing Jingmei Medical Cosmetology Clinic. From 1-28 days before surgery, autologous fat transplantation was performed after wearing the dilator, and postoperative wearing of the dilator lasted from 1 to 24 months, with an average of 3.5 months.Results:The volume of fat transplantation per breast ranged from 150 ml to 460 ml, with an average of 320 ml. No obvious postoperative complications such as fat liquefaction, infection, intramammary induration and fat embolism were observed, and the postoperative appearance was lasting. The postoperative follow-up was conducted from 6 months to 7 years, and patient postoperative satisfaction rate reached 84.9% and doctors＇ satisfaction after surgery reached 82.1%.Conclusions:Augmentation mammoplasty with autologous fat transplantation assisted by external expander can effectively improve the appearance of breast morphology and contour defects and increase the survival rate of fat transplantation, which is worthy of clinical application.

ObjectiveTo investigate the biological function and molecular mechanism of long non-coding RNA Linc‑pint in colorectal cancer. MethodsQuantitative real‑time quantitative （qRT‑PCR） was performed to detect the expression level of Linc‑pint in 31 pairs of colorectal cancer tumor and adjacent normal tissues； correlation between the expression level of Linc‑pint and the clinicopathological characteristics was analyzed by the chi‑square test. Kaplan-Meier survival analysis was used to assess the relationship between Linc‑pint expression level and the prognosis of patients. Cox regression model was used to analyze the relationship between clinicopathological characteristics and the prognosis of patients. Expression level of Linc‑pint were detected by qRT‑PCR in 5 common colorectal cancer cell lines. Effect of Linc‑pint on cell proliferation， invasion and migration was measured by cell counting kit‑8 assay， Transwell assay and harvested xenografts from nude mice. qRT‑PCR was performed to detect the expression level of Linc‑pint's target gene micro RNA（miR）‑21 in 31 pairs of colorectal cancer tumor tissues and adjacent normal tissues. Pearson correlation coefficient was used to assess the correlation between Linc‑pint and miR‑21. qRT‑PCR was used to detect the expression of overexpression of Linc‑pint on miR‑21 in colorectal cancer cells. ResultsExpression level of Linc‑pint in normal tissues （3.95±1.16） was significantly higher than that in colorectal cancer tissues （2.74±0.95） （t=6.17， P<0.05）. Overall survival rate of patients with high expression of Linc‑pint was 62.5%， which was significantly higher than that of patients with low expression of Linc‑pint （34.3%， P<0.05）. The proliferation， invasion and migration of CRC cells were inhibited after overexpression of Linc‑pint. In colorectal cancer tumor and adjacent normal tissues， Linc‑pint and miR‑21 showed opposite expression in tumor tissues and were negatively correlated （r=-0.288 and -0.908， both P<0.05）. ConclusionLinc‑pint acts as a tumor suppressor by down‑regulating the expression level of miR‑21 to inhibit the proliferation， invasion and migration of colorectal cancer.
