Objective To analyze the clinical features of the uterine sarcoma with different histological types and improve the capability of diagnosis and therapy. Methods Thirty-four cases with uterine sarcoma treatment were analyzed respectively , among which there were 19 cases with malignant endometrial interstitial sarcomas (55.8%), 6 cases with leiomyosarcoma (18%), 9 with malignant mixed tumor (26%). Results (1) The average age of patients were about 46 , patients with endometrial interstitial sarcomas aged 28 ~ 60 were more common in relatively younger , and patients with malignant mixed tumor aged about 56 were more common in postmenopausal women. Incidence rate of patients with endometrial interstitial sarcomas were more common (55.8%). (2) The patients usually manifested with abnormal vaginal bleeding (76%). Diagnosis curettage were the most commonly used before operation, which the positive rate was 65.3% and postoperative pathological di-agnosis was 35%. (3) 26 patients underwent one stage surgical treatment.7 patients underwent two stage surgical treatment. Surgical methods were the removal of the uterine double accessories and pelvic lymph node dissection. The five year survival rate was 77.7% (14/18). Conclusions The age range of uterine sarcoma is more exten-sive. Preoperative diagnosis can be diagnosed by curettage, and may also be missed. It should be paid attention to the operation of the examination examination , timely delivery of frozen examination to improve the diagnostic rate. and the appropriate surgical choice are meaningful methods to improve the prognosis.

Extracellular vesicles(EVs)are membrane-bound vesicles released by cells into the extracellular environment and can selec-tively enrich specific proteins and RNA and mediate intercellular communication. Therefore,EVs have the potential of a biomarker for disea-ses,a therapeutic target,and a delivery vector. This article reviews the research advances in the role of EVs in viral hepatitis,liver fibrosis, and liver cancer and emphasizes the prospects of EVs in liver diseases.

ObjectiveTo explore efficacy,durability and possible impacts on life quality of carotid occlusion treatment to carotid cavernous fistula (CCF) patients.MethodsCCF patients since 2001 were retrospectively analyzed,the clinical features,2 weeks post procedure mRS score and ratio of carotid occlusion were recorded.Headache impact test (HIT-6) and Short form health survey(SF-36) were used to assess impact of sequelae in patients' daily life,by phone call,questionnaire and clinic recheck.Results Total 96 cases were studied composed of 81 direct CCF and 15 dural AVF.Thirty-two direct CCF cases underwent carotid occlusion during procedure and many ophthalmologic signs but visual impairment got recovery after 2 weeks,the mRS score less than 2 were revealed.The one year post operation HIT-6 score more than 50 was more likely found in carotid occlusion cases comparing with those preserved carotid artery while the 3 year SF-36 scores of carotid occlusion cases revealed inferior to those with patent artery,especially in body pain,general health and vitality subscales.ConclusionCarotid occlusion seems to be a feasible,effective and durable alternative for CCF treatment,but which could play a negative role on quality of patients' life in the long run.

Objective To evaluate the feasibility,efficacy and complication of early middle cerebral artery(MCA) mechanical recanalization(MER) for treatment of acute ischemic stroke.Methods Seven cases undergone MER of MCA for the treatment of acute cerebral infarct were retrospectively reviewed and analyzed,including the etiology,mechanism,Qureshi grading scale,location and size of infarcts,NIHSS score of pre and post procedure,endovascular technique and complications.Referring to the literature,the indications of MCA recanalization were further identified.Results A total of 7 cases with mean age of 48 yrs were reviewed,which included 3 cases of atherosclerotic thrombosis and 4 embolic cases with pre NIHSS score ranging from 3 to 22.Mechanical recanalization succeeded in 6 cases,but 2 cases of cardiogenic embolism died of intrac ranial hemorrhage postoperatively.Favorable clinical outcomes were achieved in 4 cases whereas 1 deteriorated.Overall complications seemed to be consistent with literatures reviewed.Conclusions Early MER of MCA may benefit to a certain subset of acute ischemia stroke patients,however,embolic cases,elder patients and those with severe neurologic deficits are often accompanied by higher complications and unfavorable outcome.

Objective To evaluate the technical feasibility,safety and treatment effect of endovascular revascularization of symptomatic sub-acute and chronic intracranial vertebrobasilar artery occlusion.Methods Twenty-one consecutive patients with symptomatic sub-acute and chronic intracranial vertebrobasilar occlusion underwent endovascular revascularization.Perioperative complications and recurrent events during the follow-up period were recorded. The modified Rankin scale ( mRS ) scores and blood stream thrombolysis in myocardial infarction (TIMI) scores for all patients preoperatively,postoperatively and at follow-up were evaluated.The results were analyzed using Wilcoxon rank sum test and Fisher exact test.Results All 21 patients but 1 (95.2％,20/21 ) obtained successful recanalization. After the procedure,9 patients showed improvements,10 were stable,and 2 worse. The decline of median mRS scores,which was 4 preoperatively [ inter-quartile range ( IR ) 2.5-5.0 ] and 4 ( IR 1.0-5.0 ) on discharge from the hospital respectively,showed significant statistical difference (Z =2.810,P ＜ 0.01 ).Three ( 14.3％ ) patients suffered periprocedural complications,namely basal arterial dissection,intra-stent thrombosis and postoperatively acute occlusion in each one.There was no death,stoke or recurrent transient ischemic attack (TIA) occurring 30 days after the procedure. During the 7 months after operation,which was the mean clinical follow-up duration,TIA and recurrent stoke occurred in one patient respectively,and two patients died of systemic complications. The median mRS scores were 2.0 (IR 1.0-4.0 )in all 21 patients and 1 ( IR 1.0-4.0) in the surviving subjects.Conclusions Endovascular revascularization for the recanalization of symptomatic sub-acute and chronic vertebrobasilar artery occlusion is technically feasible,and helps to prevent ischemic events and improve disability recovery. However,its exact effect needs further verification by future random controlled studies.

Objective To assess the safety, feasibility, short-and mid-term efficacy of wingspan stent for treating patients with symptomatic intracranial artery stenosis. Methods A total of 113 patients with severe symptomatic intracranial stenosis were enrolled and Gateway-wingspan stenting were performed on all patients. The technical success, the pre- and post-stenting stenosis, perioperative complications, clinical outcome and restenosis rates were recorded, and chi-square test was used for analysis of complication rate by comparing our results with the results of Warfarin-Aspirin Symptomatic Intracranial Disease (WASID) study and NIH multi-center Wingspan stenting trial. Results The technical success rate was 99. 1% ( 112/113). The mean pre and post-stent stenoses were (80.7 ± 9.3)% and (27.7 ± 9.7)% (χ2 =9.397,P < 0. 05 ). The total complication rate was 4.4% (5/113 ) during the follow-up ( mean 14. 5 months, range 1-28 months), and the frequency of restenosis was 12. 5% (5/40) at 6 months. The primary endpoint events, ischemic stroke, and lesion-related ischemic stroke were lower in our study (4.5%, 3.5%,3.5% ) compared with the results of WASID trial (21.1%, 20. 4%, 15.0% ,P<0. 05). For those with poor outcome in the three high-risk sub-groups which were with more than 70% stenosis, or last event from the treatment was less than 17 days, or NIHSS was above 1, a better outcome was observed in our group (4. 5% ,4. 7% and 2. 0% in our study, 19.0%, 17.0% and 19. 6% in previous study, P < 0. 05). The medium-term efficacy in this group (4. 5% ) significantly improved compared with NIH study ( 14. 0% ,P <0. 05 ). Conclusions Wingspan stenting for symptomatic intracranial arterial stenosis is with good safety,feasibility and low perioperative stroke rate and mortality. The incidence of primary endpoint events and the ischemic events are lower than those of medication group, and the efficacy of stenting is significantly better than medication even in high-risk population.

Objective To evaluate the mid-and long-term follow-up outcome of revascularization and stenting of nonacute intracranial vertebrobasilar artery occlusion. Methods Consecutive data of 27 patients who suffered from nonacute intracranial vertebrobasilar artery occlusion beyond 24 hours and underwent endovascular revascularization, were retrospectively collected and analyzed. Complications and recurrent ischemic events during the follow-up period were recorded. The modified Rankin scale(mRS) scores were used and compared between pre-and postoperation. Results All 27 patients except one(96.3%) obtained successful recanalization. After the procedure, 13 patients showed improvement, 11 were stable, and 3 worse. The decline of median mRS scores, which was 4(interquarter range-IR, 2-5) preoperatively and 3(IR, 1-5) on discharge. Five patients suffered from procedural complications and three of them resulted in aggravation. Nineteen patients received imaging follow-up during the median 10 months, 6 restenosis occurred and 3 of them were symptomatic. During median 55 months clinical follow-up after operation, 2 ipsilateral stroke and 2 ipsilateral transient ischemic attack occurred. The mRS scores decreased significantly in the first one year after procedure. Conclusions Revascularization and stenting of nonacute intracranial vertebrobasilar artery occlusion can prevent recurrent ipsilateral ischemic event and improve disability recovery in the first one year.

Objective To evaluate the technical feasibility,safety and mid-term effect of endovascular revascularization of nonacute intracranial vertebrobasilar artery occlusion.Methods Consecutive data of patients who suffered from nonacute intracranial vertebrobasilar artery occlusion beyond 24 hours and underwent endovascular revascularization,were retrospectively collected and analyzed.Complications and recurrent events during the follow-up period were recorded.The modified Rankin scale (mRS) scores were used to compare the symptoms before and after the procedure.Results All 27 patients but 1 (96.3％) obtained successful recanalization.After the procedure,13 patients showed improvements,11 were stable,and 3 worse.The decline of median mRS scores,which was 4 [interquarter range(IR),2-5) preoperatively and 3 (IR,1-5) on discharge,showed significant statistical difference (Z =3.116,P =0.002).Five patients had procedural complications,namely 2 dissection,1 in-stent thrombosis during the operation,1 thrombus disruption and translocation during the operation and 1 acute reocclusion after operation.During the follow-up period with the median of 21 months,3 death,1 stroke and 2 transient ischemic attack occurred.The latest median mRS scores were 1 (IR,0-3).The ratio of patients with mRS ≤ 2 increased from 25.9％ (7/27) before operation to 63.0％ (17/27) at the follow up.Seventeen patients received imaging follow-up during the 9 months,with restenosis in 6 and symptom in 3 of them.Subgroup analyses revealed better functional recovery (lower mRS) both in patients with vertebral artery occlusion (Z =2.111,P =0.035) and those with basilar artery occlusion (Z =2.333,P =0.020).Conclusions Endovascular revascularization for the nonacute intracranial vertebrobasilar artery occlusion beyond 24 hours is technically feasible,and improves disability recovery.However,the rates of procedural complication and restenosis are high.
