Objective To compare the value of (~99m) Tc-octreotide scintigraphy and planar X-ray mammography in the diagnosis of breast cancer. Methods A total of 32 patients with suspected breast cancer were enrolled into this study. All patients underwent (~99m) Tc-octreotide scintigraphy and planar X-ray mammography. The diagnostic efficiency of (~99m) Tc-octreotide scintigraphy and planar X-ray mammography were compared based on the post-surgery pathology. Results The sensitivity of (~99m) Tc-octreotide scintigraphy and planar X-ray mammography in the diagnosis of breast cancer was 91.67% and 66.67%, the specificity was 100% and 37.50%, the accuracy was 93.75% and 59.38%, respectively. Combining (~99m) Tc-octreotide scintigraphy with planar X-ray mammography, the sensitivity, specificity, accuracy, positive predicting values and negative predicting values for breast cancer was 95.83%, 100%, 96.88%, 82.14% and 47.06%, respectively. Conclusion The diagnostic efficiency of (~99m) Tc-octreotide scintigraphy for breast cancer is superior to planar X-ray mammography. (~99m) Tc-octreotide scintigraphy combined with planar X-ray mammography, the diagnostic efficiency for breast cancer will be further improved.

Objective:To investigate the effect of transurethral plasma enucleation of prostate with bladder neck and prostatic apex urethral mucosa preservation on the incidence of retrograde ejaculation after surgery.Methods:The clinical data of 77 patients with benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) admitted to Jinhua people's Hospital from January 2018 to June 2020 were retrospectively analyzed. The ages of the two groups [(62.06±2.01)years old and (62.36 ± 2.12)years old] were comparable. There were no significant differences between the groups( P>0.05) in term of the prostate volume (72.91±17.57) ml vs. (68.07±17.28)ml, Q max [(7.33±2.02)ml/s vs. (7.79±2.09)ml/s)], and IPSS (25.51±5.66) vs.(25.17±4.90). The conventional operation group was treated with " trefoil" enucleation of prostate. The modified operation group underwent the following three improved techniques. Firstly, the anterior mucosa of the verumontanum was cut 1.5 cm away from the medial surface of the verumontanum to prevent the external sphincter injury. Secondly, part of the prostate tissue was retained by exceeding the verumontanum when cutting off the bilateral lobes. Thirdly, the middle lobe of the prostate was bluntly stripped to the bladder neck with the sheath of the electroscope in order to protect the transverse muscle fibers as well as the integrity of the bladder neck. The outcome and the ejaculation function of the two groups were analyzed. Results:There was no significant difference in operation time [(66.74±9.29)min vs. (71.29±15.32) min], catheter indwelling duration [(5.31±0.76)d vs.(5.00±1.06)d], and hospital stay [(7.57±0.88) d vs. (7.17±1.45)d] between the two groups ( P>0.05) after more than 6 months of follow-up. According to IIEF score, mild erectile dysfunction occurred in both groups, with the incidence rate of 20.7%(6/29) and 13.5%(5/37) respectively, and there was no significant difference between the two groups ( P>0.05). The postoperative maximum urinary flow rate (Q max) [(23.51±4.25) ml/s vs.(24.05±3.81)ml/s] and IPSS score (6.46±2.72 vs. 6.55±2.99) was significantly different from that before the operation ( P<0.05). However, there was no significant difference between the two groups ( P>0.05). The incidence of retrograde ejaculation in conventional operation group and modified operation group was 23/35(65.7%) and 13/42(31.0%), and the difference was statistically significant ( P<0.05). Immediate urinary continence were 24/35(68.6%) and 36/42(85.7%) in the conventional operation group and the modified operation group respectively, and there was no significant difference between the two groups( P>0.05). After 6 months of follow-up, urinary continence in both groups was 100.0%. Conclusions:Transurethral plasmakinetic enucleation of the prostate with the preservation of bladder neck and urethral mucosa of prostate apex is the same effective as conventional operation in the treatment of benign prostatic hyperplasia, but the incidence of retrograde ejaculation after operation is significantly reduced, which is suitable for those patients who desire to retain their ejaculation function.

Objective To evaluate the role of 131I SPECT/CT in post-surgical re-staging and recurrence risk stratification in patients with DTC and its impact on subsequent treatment strategy.Methods 131I-WBS and 131I SPECT/CT were performed at the same time 5 to 7 d after 131I treatment in 118 patients (33 males,85 females,average age 45 years) with DTC.Difference in the localization and qualitative diagnosis of 131I uptake lesions between 131I-WBS and 131I SPECT/CT were compared.Value of 131I SPECT/CT in the diagnosis of TNM staging,risk stratification and impact on the treatment strategy was evaluated.Paired χ2 test was used for data analysis.Results A total of 509 foci with 131I uptake were detected.131I-WBS found 449 foci with 131I uptake,354 of which (78.84%) were correctly diagnosed.131I SPECT/CT found 509 foci with 131I uptake,and 504(99.02%) were correctly diagnosed.The difference was statistically significant (χ2=21.51,P<0.01).131I-WBS changed the clinical staging in 13 cases with diagnostic accuracy of 5/13.131I SPECT/CT changed the clinical staging in 19 cases and with diagnostic accuracy of 19/19 (χ2=74.41,P<0.01).131I-WBS changed the risk stratification of 13 patients after operation and the accuracy was 5/13,the corresponding data were 22 and 100%(22/22) for 131I SPECT/CT (χ2=74.41,P<0.01).The treatment strategy was changed in 50 patients with 131I SPECT/CT.Conclusions Compared with 131I-WBS,131I SPECT/CT could provide more accurate positioning and qualitative information for 131I treatment and is more accurate in re-staging and risk stratification.

Objective To analysis the change of hip joint in healthy infants by ultrasound,and establish the normal reference value of the developmental dysplasia of the hip(DDH). Methods A total of 8 000 healthy infants from 0 to 24 weeks were collected from the Multi-center study of 10 children′s medical centers. Among them,3 855 infants(2 065 females and 1 790 males) with complete data and follow-up were included in this study. All subjects were divided into 6 groups ( <4,4~7,8~11,12~15,16~19 and≥20 weeks group). α angle,femoral head length and width,femoral head coverage ratio by acetabulum ( FHC) were measured in the coronal view on the neutral position;distance from pubis to femoral head ( P-H) and distance from ischium to femoral head ( I-H ) were measured in the transverse view on neutral position;distance from femoral head topubis ( H-P) was measured in the posterolateraltransverse view on the flexion position. The results of each group changes with age were analysised. Results ① The α angle of healthy infants from 0 to 20 weeks were increased with age,the difference among the groups were statistically significant( P <0.05),but there was no significant difference between 16~19 and ≥20 weeks group( P >0.05). ②The femoral head length and width of all age groups were increased with age,the difference among all the groups was statistically significant( all P <0.05). ③ FHC from 0 to 20 weeks were increased with age,the difference among the groups were statistically significant( P <0.05) except between 16~19 and ≥20 weeks group( P >0.05). ④ The P-H and I-H in all age groups showed no statistically significant ( all P>0.05). ⑤The H-P of all age groups were increased with age,the difference between the groups were statistically significant(all P <0.05).Conclusions The development of hip joints have the certain regular developmental pattern in healthy infants less than 5 months of birth and are relatively constant after birth more than 5 months. The ultrasound normal reference value of the hip joints can be used for the early diagnosis of the DDH.
