Asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) are main chronic respiratory diseases in adulthood,which bring a heavy burden to society and economy.The adulthood asthma and COPD originate from childhood.Atopy and certain respiratory viral infection are the risk factors of asthma.Some factors in childhood including premature,childhood asthma,serious lung infection,air pollution,active smoking will damage pulmonary function in adulthood,which contribute to COPD onset.Strategies such as preventing premature birth and controlling asthma will reduce the burden of chrouic respiratory diseases in adults.

In recent years, with being gradually developed, three-dimensional (3D) reconstruction based on pathology and medical imaging technology has shown certain value in the diagnosis and treatment of breast cancer. And with its advantages of providing the spatial location, morphological structure and 3D structure relationships with the surrounding tissues and organs, 3D reconstruction technology has played a key role in the early diagnosis, surgical treatment, and accurate evaluation of the treatment effect after surgery of breast cancer. Although the application of 3D reconstruction technology based on pathology and medical imaging is still inadequate, with the continuous development of science and technology, 3D reconstruction technology will play an increasingly important role in the diagnosis, personalized treatment and prognosis assessment of breast cancer.

Objective To retrospectively analyze the clinical characteristics of 5 cases with recurrence of congenital tracheoesophageal fistula (rTEF) and to further understand the diagnosis and treatment of this disease.Methods We totally diagnosed 5 cases of rTEF from September 2015 to July 2016 in the department of respiration of Shenzhen Children′s Hospital.The clinical materials,characteristics,risk factors of recurrence and diagnostic methods were analyzed.Results Two cases were diagnosed of rTEF at 8 years after the first repair,one case was at one year after the initial repair and two cases were at 1 to 2 months after their operations.Three cases manifested mainly in bucking after feeding,recurrent pneumonia and growth retardation.One case was admitted for vomiting and abdominal distension.One case was asymptomatic.Esophageal anastomotic leaks occurred in three cases and esophageal trictures occurred in four cases after their repairs.Three cases accompanied with gastroesophageal reflux and five cases with tracheomalacia.Four cases were performed esophagography,but only two cases were suspected of recurrence.All of five cases were performed bronchoscopy.One case was diagnosed of rTEF directly.Two cases were found suspected fistulas.And another two cases were only found surgical scars.But these four cases were confirmed by Methylene blue test observed by bronchoscopy.Conclusion Although the leading clinical manifestations of rTEF are respiratory symptoms and feeding difficulties,sometimes rTEF is asymptomatic.Because rTEF is usually complicated with the other diseases with similar symptoms,it is possible to miss the diagnosis.Esophageal anastomotic leaks and trictures are the risk factors of recurrence.Bronchoscopy is the first choice for the diagnosis of rTEF,and Methylene blue test is golden standard.Thoracotomy is recommended for the treatment of rTEF.

Objective To study the diagnosis and treatment of protracted bacterial bronchitis (PBB) in children. Methods Children with PBB conifrmed by bronchoscopy were recruited from May 2013 to April 2015 . The clinical data were retrospectively analyzed. Results All 31 cases include 18 boys and 13 girls were recruited. 28/31 were younger than 6 years old. They all complained of wet cough, some of them were reported with wheeze ( 17/31 ) and with ruttle in the lungs ( 16/31 ). White blood cell were in normal range ( 18/31 ) or slightly elevated ( 13/31 ). The C-reactin protein was in normal range ( 28/31 ). Chest X-ray test of 16 cases were normal. Twenty-four cases taken chest computerized tomograph scan, 5 had a sign of tracheobronchial stenosis. The purulent bronchitis without tracheobronchial stenosis were conifrmed by bronchoscopy. Four cases had tracheomalacia. The medians of proportion of neutrophil were 80% in bronchoalveolar lavage lfuid (BALF). The pathogens were identiifed in BALF in 17 cases, 6 with Streptococcus pneumoniae, 6 with Haemophilus parainfluenzae, 3 with Moraxella catarrhalis, 2 with Staphylococcus aureus and 1 with Haemophilus influenzae. The symptoms were improved in all cases and co-amoxiclav was prescribed to most cases when discharged. The course of antibiotics therapy was 2-4 weeks in 23 cases, and more than 4 weeks in 8 cases. Twenty-three ( 23 ) cases were cured but 8 of them relapsed. Another 8 cases were improved but not completely remitted, 7/8 were cured by further treatment for concomitant diseases such as nasosinusitis and allergic rhinitis. Conclusions Children with PBB are typically younger than six years old, and presented with prolonged wet cough and parent-reported wheeze, normal or with ruttle in the lungs. A conifrmed diagnosis was reached by bronchoscopy. The antibiotics therapy were effective, the course should be more than 2-4 weeks, however, relapse were common. When antibiotics therapy does not lead to complete remission, concomitant diseases should be considered.

Objective:To investigate the etiology, clinical characteristics and outcome of severe pneumonia-associated hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis, and to analyze the risk factors for mortality.Methods:Clinical data of patients with severe pneumonia-associated hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis admitted to Shenzhen Children′s Hospital from February 2009 to February 2019 were retrospectively analyzed.The data included clinical characteristics, etiology, clinical manifestations, laboratory data, treatment and outcomes of the patients.The clinical characteristics and laboratory data of the survival group and the death group were compared by independent sample t-test. Results:(1) Clinical characteristics: the patients were aged from 3 months to 8 years and 7 months, including 15 males and 15 females.Severe pneumonia-associated hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis accounted for 2.74% (30/1 096 cases) of severe pneumonia in the same period.(2) Etiology: Mycoplasma pneumoniae infection was found in 8 cases (8/30 cases, 26.67%), virus infection in 7 cases (7/30 cases, 23.33%, including 5 cases with adenovirus infection, 1 case with EB virus infection, and 1 case with cytomegalovirus infection), Mycoplasma pneumoniae complicated with adenovirus infection in 4 cases (4/30 cases, 13.33%), bacterial infection in 3 cases (3/30 cases, 10%), and fungal infection in 2 cases, Mycobacterium tuberculosis infection in 1 case.The pathogens were not identified in 5 patients.(3) Clinical manifestations: fever and hepatomegaly were present in all patients.Besides, 86.67% (26/30)patients had fever duration more than 10 days, 83.33% (25/30 cases) patients had cough, 76.66% (23/30 cases) patients had splenomegaly, and 33.33% (10/30 cases) patients had nervous system symptoms.Laboratory data showed varying degrees of reduction of binary and ternary systems in 80.00%(24/30 cases) of the patients.Liver function impairment was found in half of the patients, and serum ferritin and lactate dehydrogenase levels were elevated in all patients.(4) The mortality rate was 30.00% (9/30 cases). The differences in age, hypertriglyceridemia and high serum ferritin levels between the survival and death groups were significant (all P<0.05). Conclusions:Severe pneumonia-associated hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis is a disease with a high mortality rate.Patients with Mycoplasma pneumoniae and adenovirus pneumonia are more likely to suffer from secondary hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis.Younger age, hypertriglyceridemia and high serum ferritin levels are indicative of poor prognosis.

Cystic fibrosis (CF) is a multisystem disease caused by CFTR gene mutations, affecting the lungs, digestive system, and reproductive tract.Infectious lung disease is the major cause of exacerbation and mortality in most patients.There are specific pathogen spectrums in infectious lung disease and antibiotics application principles in CF patients.In this article, the application of antibiotics in clinical guidelines for care of children with CF in Royal Brompton Hospital (2020) was introduced.

Objective: To summarize the clinical characteristics of the diffuse parenchymal lung diseases in a child caused by a novel compound heterozygous ABCA3 mutation and explore the association between the phenotype and ABCA3 mutation. Method: The clinical material of a patient diagnosed with diffuse parenchymal lung disease with ABCA3 mutation in December 2016 in Shenzhen Children's Hospital was analyzed. The information about ABCA3 gene mutation updated before April, 2017 was searched and collected from the gene databases (including 1000Genomes, HGMD, EXAC) and the literatures (including Wanfang Chinese database and Pubmed). Result: The girl was one year and nine months old. She presented with chronic cough, tachypnea, cyanosis and failure to thrive since she was one year and three months old. Her condition gradually deteriorated after she was empirically treated. Physical examination showed malnutrition, tachypnea and clubbed-fingers. Her high resolution computed tomography (HRCT) revealed diffused ground-glass opacities, thickened interlobular septum, and multiple subpleural small air-filled lung cysts. The second generation sequencing study identified a novel compound heterozygous mutation (c.1755delC+c.2890G>A) in her ABCA3 gene, which derived respectively from her parents and has not been reported in the database and the literatures mentioned above. Conclusion c.1755delC+c.2890G>A is a new kind of compound heterozygous mutation in ABCA3, which can cause children's diffuse parenchymal lung disease. Its phenotype is related to its genotype.

OBJECTIVETo study the pathology, imaging and clinical features of a child with trisomy 21 syndrome associated interstitial lung disease.

METHODData of a case with trisomy 21 syndrome associated interstitial lung disease confirmed by lung imaging and pathology were collected, analyzed and the related reports in literature were reviewed.

RESULTThe patient was a one year and 7 months old boy who suffered from severe pneumonia and recurrent infection during his hospital stay. When his disease was stable, he did not have shortness of breath and cyanosis, but a chest computed tomography (CT) showed ground-glass opacity, regional emphysema, band-like change in lung parenchyma, which indicated interstitial lung diseases. Unequal air inflation in bilateral lungs and diffuse over-distension of peripheral air spaces in lung surface were seen through thoracoscope. Pathological examination indicated that alveolar, alveolar ducts and alveolar sac were enlarged, alveolar septa was expanded. There were two reports in lung pathology of trisomy 21 syndrome, alveolar growth abnormalities was seen in 86%-88% cases. The multiple subpleural cysts in chest CT was characteristic. Clinically, trisomy 21 syndrome had high morbidity of respiratory tract infection and progress to respiratory failure frequently. Prolonged postoperative desaturation was constant which required long duration of respiratory support.

CONCLUSIONTrisomy 21 syndrome associated alveolar growth abnormalities were confirmed, which manifest as alveolar simplification in pathology and interstitial lung diseases in imaging. The risk of respiratory failure in these cases caused by infection and surgery should be considered.
