Objective To summarize the diagnostic and therapeutic experience on chronic pancreatitis characterized by a pancreatic mass. Methods The clinical data of 28 cases of chronic pancreatitis with mass undergoing surgical operations were retrospectively analyzed in our hospital from June1999 to June 2009. Results Among the 28 cases, 19 were diagnosed as carcinoma, 9 cases were diagnosed as chronic pancreatitis respectively before operation. Needle aspiration biopsy and/or postoperative pathology identified chronic pancreatitis in all cases. The symptom included abdominal pain (22 cases),jaundice (15 cases), and obstruction of duodenum (4 cases). Pancreaticoduodenectomy was performed in 17 cases, choledochojejunostomy performed in 3 cases, pancreatojejunostomy performed in 1 case.Duodenum-preserving resection was performed in 4 cases, and resection of body and tail of the pancreas were performed in 3 cases. There was no operative death. Postoperative complications included pancreatic leakage (2 cases), severe gastroplegia (2 cases) and stress peptic ulcer with massive bleeding ( 1 case). All patients got follow-up ranging from 6 months to 5 years. Recurrence of abdominal pain developed in 7 cases after 2 years. Canceration of pancreatic mass was found respectively in 8 months, 1 year after operation in one each cases. Conclusion Preoperative differential diagnosis of chronic pancreas and pancreatic tumor was difficult. Although needle aspiration biopsy is the effective method for diagnosis, there may be still a possibility of missed diagnosis/misdiagnosis.

Objective To retrospectively analyze the effect of corticosteroids therapy for inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) at 1-month and 1-year. Methods Those who was diagnosed as Crohn's disease (CD, n=55) or ulcerative colitis (UC, n= 154) from 1998 to 2006 were investigated. The effect of corticosteroids was evaluated after one month and 1-year. The prognostic factors were calculated using Logistic regression analysis. Results The patients who received eortieosteroids therapy were 21 (38.2%) with CD and 20 (13.0%) with UC (2 cases withdrawn). In one month followe-up, the complete and partial remissions were found in 15 (71.4%) and 3 (14.3%) patients with CD, respectively, while there were 15 (83.3%) and 3 (16.7%) in patients UC, respectively. Only 3 (14.3%) patients with CD was no response. In one year follow up, 11 out of 21 (52.4%) patients with CD had prolonged response to corticosteroids, 6 (28.6%) were corticosteroid dependence, and 4 (19%) required surgery; whereas 11 out of 18 (61.1%) patients with UC had prolonged response, 3 (16.7%) were corticosteroid dependence, and 4 (22.2%) required surgery. Logistic regression analysis showed that serum albumin level was associated with efficacy of corticosteroids after one year (P= 0.027, OR: 1.320,95% CI: 1.032~1. 690). Conclusion The IBD patients who has response to initiating corticosteroids therapy will get shor-term remission. Its prognosis is related with serum albumin level.

Objective To explore the clinical features and perioperative treatment effects of colorectal cancer in elderly patients.Methods Retrospective analysis of clinical data especially focusing on perioperative treatment from 104 elderly patients with coloreetal cancer were performed.Results A total of 99 patients (95.2%) were cured or improved at discharge.Perioperative pulmonary infection occurred in 13 cases (12.5%), of whom 6 cases (5.8%) suffered from respiratory failure.Lower extremity deep venous thrombosis occurred in 3 cases (2.9%), incision infection in 6 cases (5.8%), wound dehiscence in 2 cases (1.9%), intestinal fistula in 1 case (1.0%) and gastroparesis in 1 case (1.0%).About 5 cases (4.8%) died from multiple organ failure.Conclusions Old age is not a contraindication in surgical treatment for colorectal cancer.Paying attention to accurate and timely treatment in perioperative peroid can reduce postoperative complications and improve patients' quality of life.

Objective To investigate the clinical phenotype and genotype in three probands with antithmmbin(AT)deficiency and their families,and to identify the molecular mechanism of AT deficiency.Methods Chromogenic substrate method and immunoturbidimetry assay was used to detect the plasma levels of AT:A and AT:Ag,respectively.Genomic DNA was extracted from the peripheral blood.All 7 exons and the flanking sequences were amplified by PCR.and the abnormal mutant genes were analyzed by direct sequencing.Western blot was used to detect the AT levels and thrombin generation tests were used to detect coagulation status.Results The plasma levels of AT:A and AT:Ag of the three probands declined by 50%.G7386C(Trp225Cys)mutation in exon 4,C2591G(Ser36stop)in exon 2 and C9819T(Arg359stop)in exon 5 were characterized in the three prebands and they could result in W(Trp)225C(Cys)missense mutation,S(Set)36X(stop)nonsense mutation and R(Arg)359X(stop)nonsense mutation respectively,The testing results of phenotype and genotype from some of their family members showed consistent with results from the probands.Western blot results indicated that the Icyels of PC:Ag were lower compared with the normal pooled plasma.The hypercoagulative status was present in the probands using thrombin generation tests.Conclusions Type Ⅰ hereditary AT deficiency was found in these three families.The 3 heterozygous mutations.W225C,S36X and R359X are genetic defects of hereditary AT deficiency.W225C and S36X have not been described before.
