Objective To investigate the clinical application value of ¹⁸F-FDG PET-CT simulation localization in radiotherapy of recurrent abdominal and pelvic tumors. Methods ¹⁸F-FDG PET-CT was used to simulate positioning 38 patients with abdominal and pelvic tumors who relapsed after treatment.Based on both CT images and ¹⁸F-FDG PRT-CT, we drew up a systemic treatment plan and outlined the radiotherapy target area, and then compared the differences between the two methods. Results In 38 patients, 21.1%(3/8) of patients were found to have distal metastases outside the pelvic and abdominal cavity, and changed the systemic treatment plan.The radiotherapy target was altered in 34(89.5%) patients.The mean value of GTV_PET-CT was 118.14cm³and the mean value of GTV_CT was 148.53cm³(P=0.044). Conclusion For patients with recurrent abdominal and pelvic tumors, ¹⁸F-FDG PET-CT simulation localization treatment improves tumor re-staging, changes the integrated therapy for some patients, and makes the target area of radiotherapy more accurate.

[Objective] To investigate the efficacy of nephron-sparing surgery (NSS) for the treatment of renal sinus angiomyolipoma and summarize the surgical experience. [Methods] The clinical data and follow-up results of 10 cases of renal sinus angiomyolipoma treated during Sep.2014 and Feb.2022 in our hospital were retrospectively analyzed. [Results] The patients included 1 male and 9 female.The mean tumor diameter was (5.7±2.8) cm.The RENAL score was 8 in 1 case, 9 in 3 cases, 10 in 4 cases, and 11 in 2 cases.Retroperitoneal laparoscopic partial nephrectomy was conducted in 3 cases, robot-assisted laparoscopic partial nephrectomy in 3 cases, and open partial nephrectomy by transabdominal approach in 4 cases.All operations were successful.The median operation time was 225 (97-340) minutes and the median warm ischemic time was 30.5 (5-43) minutes.Two patients underwent renal vein clamping simultaneously, with clamping time of 18 and 29 minutes, respectively.The median estimated blood loss was 200(10-600) mL, and no patients received blood transfusion.The difference between postoperative and preoperative hemoglobin concentration was statistically significant [113 (94-130) g/L vs.136 (95-150) g/L, P=0.041]. The difference between the postoperative and preoperative serum creatinine level was not statistically significant [58(35-89) μmol/L vs. 62(39-77) μmol/L, P=0.722]. One case suffered lymphorrhagia (Clavien-Dindo grade Ⅰ) and recovered with conservative treatment; 1 case experienced local recurrence after a follow-up of 99 months; 9 patients recovered uneventfully without any postoperative complications. [Conclusion] NSS is an effective treatment strategy for renal sinus angiomyolipoma.Complete resection plays a key role.Due to possible recurrence, long-term follow-up is recommended.
