Objective To explore the role of cancer stem cells in EMT-induced acquired resistance to EGFR-TKIs in NSCLC. Methods The EGFR del E746-A750 mutated human lung adenocarcinoma PC-9 cell line and gefitinib acquired resistance cell line PC-9/AB were used in this study. EMT was assessed by western blotting assay. The sensitivity to gefitinib was tested with CCK8. Flow cytometry for antibody analysis was used to quantify CSCs within the cell lines. Results Compared with PC-9, PC-9/AB underwent EMT and showed no-table resistance to gefitinib (P < 0.01). Compared with PC-9, the proportions of CSCs were much higher in PC-9/AB. Conclusion EMT plays an important role in the acquired resistance to EGFR-TKIs in NSCLC , possibly through the up-regulation of CSCs.

BACKGROUND:Extraction of a wel fixed cementless femoral stem or a cemented stem is difficult during revision of total hip arthroplasty. The extended trochanteric osteotomy provides excellent methods, and combining with long-stem cementless prosthesis can better reduce postoperative complications.
OBJECTIVE:To retrospectively analyze the recent clinical curative effect after extended trochanteric osteotomy combined with long-stem cementless prosthesis in hip revision.
METHODA total of 25 patients undergoing hip revision were selected from the Department of Osteoarthrosis, Pingdingshan First People’s Hospital, China from May 2008 to May 2013. Of them, 17 patients were subjected to the extended trochanteric osteotomy combined with single-incision and double-approaches. The femurs were reconstructed with long-stem cementless prosthesis. Al patients were fol owed-up for 12 to 60 months. Pre-operative and post-operative Harris hip scores, the post-operative complications, the bone cutting length, the length of stem in contact with cortical bone, the length of the end of bone cutting to the end of the prosthesis were recorded.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:17 patients were fol owed-up. The mean length of bone was 17 cm (15-23 cm). The mean length of stem in contact with cortical bone was 6.4 cm (4-11 cm). The mean length of the end of bone to the end of the prosthesis was 11.5 cm (8-18.5 cm). After fol ow-up, the mean Harris hip scores were improved from (39.0 ± 13.6) scores preoperatively to (75.0 ± 14.9) scores postoperatively (P<0.01). Subsidence occurred in two hips. The cutting sites of 17 cases of extended trochanteric osteotomy were fixed wel . These data suggested that the operation through single-incision and double-approach to the hip, while preserving the attachment of the external rotators and posterior capsule, wil strength rear hip stability and prevent postoperative dislocations. Recent effects were satisfactory, but the long-term outcomes should be further investigated.

BACKGROUND:In clinical application, the structure of crista lambdoidalis of L5 was unclear. It needs to expose more tissue to define L5 entry point through transverse process or superior and inferior articular process. This increased the risk of trauma and iatrogenic superior intervertebral degeneration. Therefore, it is necessary to expose L5 entry point with a minimaly invasive way. OBJECTIVE:To investigate the accuracy of L5 pedicle screw insertion with the entry point of mastoid process slope by imaging. METHODS:Mastoid process was located on the base of L5 superior articular process. A cant was formed when the highest point of L5 mastoid process backward protuberance extended inwards and downwards. The cant was defined as mastoid process slope; it was lateral to pedicle medial superior side internaly, medial to transverse process root and superior to the top of crista lambdoidalis. The slope was first easily touched and exposed in lumbar posterior surgery through paraspinal muscle space approach. Fifty patients of lumbar spine disorders were treated by L5 pedicle screws fixation through the entry point of mastoid process slope. According to preoperative radiographic and CT images, pedicle screw insertion direction of the sagittal and transverse sections was calculated. The diameter of pedicle screw was 6.5 mm. The condition of intraoperative successful rate of screws placement at one time was analyzed. The accuracy of screw placement was evaluated by postoperative radiographic and CT images. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:With the method of the mastoid process slope, the successful rate of screw placement at one time was 96% (96/100). Totaly 100 screws were inserted into L5. According to the criterion by Gertzbein, 95 screws (95%) totaly located in pedicles and 5 screws (5%) encroached on the pedicle from medial wal. Three (3%) out of 5 inaccurately placed screws cut out less than 2 mm of the inner wal, while 2 (2%) between 2 mm and 4 mm, without neurologic deficits. The method of mastoid process slope had a high successful rate of screw placement. Combined with preoperative X-ray films and CT images could obtain a high accuracy rate of screw insertion.

Objective To study the Diagnosis and treatment of thyroglossal duct cyst or fistula. Methods The clinical data of 67 patients with thyroglossal duct cyst or fistula treated by surgery were analyzed retrospectively. Results The diagnosis rate preoperatively was 92.5% and the accuracy diagnosis rate by B type ultrasonography was 96.1%; all cases were treated by operation, of them, 14 cases underwent simple cyst resection, 12 with resection of partial periosteum of hyoid and 41 with resection of middle segment of hyoid( Sistrunk's operation ). 54 cases were followed up, recurrence in cases with cyst was 4 of 43 (9.3%) and recurrence in cases with fistula was 2 of 11(18.2%)respectively. Conclusion Ultrasonography shows certain characteristics and clinical value to diagnose and distinguish thyroglossal duct cyst. Postoperative recurrence is due to the selection of operation procedures and control of infection of focus. The Sistrunk's operation properly performed previou to cyst infection should reduce recurrence rate markedly.
