1.CT value and evaluation in the TNM staging for lung cancer
China Oncology 2001;0(05):-
In order to achieve correct diagnosis of lung cancer for therapeutic planning, it is important to apply the new international TNM staging system. CT can be helpful in diagnosis and staging of lung cancer with regard to evaluation of the primary tumor and mediastinal lymph nodes and in the search for sites of distant metastasis. Therefore, CT is the most important supplementary examination for lung cancer, which can give further observation of the invading standard of large bronchus, vessels, lymph nodes and pleura, which might provide more valuable information for TNM staging.PET CT image fusion permits superior localization of lung cancer. The relation between anatomic and metabolic volume is more complex. Combined PET/CT and image fusion will improve the TNM classification in preoperative staging of lung cancer which may result as the best non invasive method.

Clinical Medicine of China 2011;27(7):713-715
Objective To study the clinical features of upper gastro-intestinal hemorrhage in aged patients and provide information for timely and reasonable treatment for these patients. Methods The clinical data of 100 aged patients with upper gastro-intestinal hemorrhage (group A) were analyzed retrospectively. As control, 101 cases of non-aged patients with the same condition were selected for comparison ( Group B). Results The main cause of upper gastro-intestinal hemorrhage in aged patients was peptic ulcer(39% ) ,but the rate of hemorrhagein gastric ulcer(24. 00% ) was higher than that of duodenal ulcer(15. 00% ). However, in the non-aged patients,duodenal ulcer caused higher chance of upper gastro-intestinal hemorrhage than gastric ulcer. Aged group has higher complications ( 70.00% ) , which was significantly higher than that in non-aged group ( 24.75% ) ( x2 = 41. 27, P < 0. 01). Haematemesis occurred more frequently in aged group ( 28.00% ) thanthat of 7.92% in the non-aged group(x2 = 13.78 ,P <0.01). Most patients in aged group received NSAIDs and anticoagulant to treat complications. Conclusion The primary cause of upper gastrointestinal haemorrhage in aged patients was peptic ulcer,with relatively high incidence in gastric ulcer patients,and frequent incidence of haematemesis and complications. Aged patients were recommended to receive PPI therapy.

One hundred seventy of patients with cervical esophageal carcinoma (30 cases were treated by pre-operative radiation and surgery (combined group), 27 cases by surgery alone, 113 cases by radical radiation). The doses of the preoperative radiation and the radiacal radiation were D T40 Gy/4w and above D T 50 Gy/5w, respectively. The 5 year survival rates were 40% in the combined group, 15.3% in surgry alone, and 28% in radical radiation groups. The difference of survival rates in the combined group and surgery alone was significantly different statistically. Factors affecting the survivals were lymphnode metastasis in radical radiation and recurrent larygeal nerve paralysis in the combined group. The main causes of failure were local residual and recurrence (71%) in radical radiation and lymphnode metastasis (81%) in the combined group. The authors believe that pre-operative radiation combined with surgery could improve the survival of cervical esophageal carcinoma. Radical radiation is also one of effective treatment methods for cercical esophageal carcinoma.

Objective To explore the feasibility of using unilateral continuous spinal anesthesia (CSA) in elderly patients undergoing hip replacement.Methods Forty-two ASA Ⅰ-Ⅲ patients (14 males, 28 females) aged 60-93yr were randomized to one of two groups: group 1 unilateral CSA (n = 21) and group 2 continuous epidural anesthesia (CEA,n = 21 ) . The patients in both groups were all premedicated with oral diazepam 5 mg and intramuscular scopolamine 0.3 mg. In group 1 unilateral CSA was performed at L2,3 or 3,4 interspace with the patients in the lateral position with the diseased leg upper most. The patients received a 27 gauge continuous spinal catheter, which was threaded through a 22 gauge spinal needle into subarachnoid space. Hypobaric 0-375% bupivacaine solution (0.75 % bupivacaine: sterile water = 1:1) 0.5-1.0ml was injected. If analgesia did not reach T10 after 5-10 min the same dose was repeated. In group 2 epidural catheter was placed also at L2.3or3,4. A test dose of 3 ml of 2% lidocaine was injected and then a mixture of 2% lidocaine and 0.5% bupivacaine (1:1) 8-10 ml was injected into the epidural space. The level of sensory block and degree of motor blockade were measured and recorded. The intraoperative and postoperative complications associated with spinal or epidural anesthesia were recorded. Results The demographic data, duration of operation and intraoperative blood loss were comparable between the two groups.In group 1 sensory block was confined to the diseased leg and no motor blockade of the healthy leg was observed. MAP was slightly decreased after initial dose of local anesthetics as compared to the baseline MAP in both groups. There was no significant change in SpO2 during operation in both groups. The incidences of hypotension, which needed treatment with intravenous ephedrine and shivering during operation and nausea and vomiting after operation were significantly lower in group 1 than in group 2. Conclusion Unilateral CSA produces satisfactory sensory block with stable hemodynamics and less complications and is anesthesia method of choice in elderly patients undergoing hip replacement.
