Objective To observe the short-term fusion rate of using osteophyte filled cage in ante-rior cervical disectomy and fusion. Methods From May 2007 to May 2009, 103 patients receiving anterior cervical disectomy, spine fusion by different surgeons were performed with cages containing exclusively au-tologous osteophyte collected from both anterior and posterior vertebral edges adjacent to the intervertebral space. There are 69 males, 34 females, from 25 to 77 years of age, average 53.6 years. 60 patients received one level fusion. 33 and 10 patients received two-level and three-level fusion respectively. Patients were re-viewed 3 months after operation and fusion was evaluated by X-ray film, reconstructive CT and MR. Results 1. Only 1.9% (2/103) of patients' X-ray films indicate non-fusion (internal fixation failure) while 31.7% (32/ 103) of patients' CT and 30.1% (31/103) of patients' MR indicate non-fusion or being confusing to make a diagnosis. 2. The diagnostic coherence between CT and MR as to evaluate fusion is good (kappa=0.686, P= 0.00). 3. The total fusion rate was 77.7%(80/103) while the highest fusion rate achieved by single surgeon was 90%(18/20). The total one level fusion rate was 80%(48/60) while the highest rate by single surgeon was 88.2%(15/17). The total two-level fusion rate was 78.6%(26/33) while the highest rate by single sur-geon was 90%(9/10). The total three-level fusion rate was 60%(60/100) while the highest rate by single surgeon was 100%(3/3). No statistic significant difference in fusion rate was found between any two of the three groups. Conclusion The method of using osteophyte filled cage can acquire ideal short-term fusion rate in one and two-level anterior cervical disectomy, fusion and plate fixation.

31 patients from Anhui province maternal and child health care with cesarean scar pregnancy ( CSP ) treated with UAE ( before or after uterine curettage) were analyzed retrospectively. 12 subjects with a definite diag-nosis of CSP were offered preventive UAE. 1 case of an emergency rupture of the CSP patient was offered emergen-cy interventional therapy. The other eight patients,who were misdiagnosed as having an intrauterine pregnancy,with the symptoms of active vaginal bleeding were treated with emergency UAE after uterine curettage. The results showed all the 31 patients with CSP were resolved successfully without hysterectomy and had a significant decrease on the data ofβ-HCG. 24 patients received preventive UAE combined with methotrexate followed by uterine curet-tage. 3 patients received a excision of the scar in the uterus after UAE. 4 patients had a UAE combined with conser-vative medication. Results showed that UAE might be an effective means of treating CSP, including treatment in an emergency setting. It decreases the incidence rate of hysterectomy.

Objective To improve the capability of diagnosing and treating renal chromophobe cell carcinoma (RCCC) and the recognition of this subtype of renal cell carcinoma (RCC). Methods The clinical data of 15 cases of RCCC (10 men and 5 women) were analyzed.Their age ranged from 47 to 74 years,with a mean of 57 years. Radical nephrectomy was performed in all these cases. Results Postoperative pathological findings confirmed the diagnosis of RCCC.The pathologic TNM stage of RCCC was as follows:pT 1N 0M 0 in 6 cases,pT 2N 0M 0 in 5,pT 3bN 0M 0 in 2,pT 1N 2M 0 in 1 and pT 2N 2M 0 in 1.The pathologic grade of RCCC was G 2 in 10 cases and G 3 in 5.Eleven cases were followed up.During the follow-up of 2 to 31 months (mean, 19 months),1 died of heart attack,1 had local recurrence and 9 were surviving tumor free. Conclusions RCCC is a morphologically distinctive uncommon subtype of RCC.Radical nephrectomy is the first choice for the treatment of RCCC.Compared with other types of RCC at the same stage and of the same grade,RCCC has a better prognosis.

Objective To improve the level of diagnosis and treatment of non-specific ureteritis. Methods The clinical data of 11 cases of non-specific ureteritis (6 men and 5 women) were retrospectively analyzed. Their mean age was 48 years (range,24～67 years).The lesions were detected in upper part of the ureter in 1 case,in middle part in 3,and in lower part in 7.All the lesions were unilateral strictured;of them unifocal strictures were found in 9 cases and multifocal strictures in 2.Open surgery was performed in 7 cases,biopsy and double J stent insertion in 4;of the 4 cases balloon dilation was performed in 1. Results Pathological findings confirmed the diagnosis of non-specific ureteritis.During follow-up of 6 months to 2.4 years (mean,1.6 years) for 10 cases,hydronephrosis was cured in 3 cases,alleviated in 6,unchanged in 1.Of these cases,2 underwent nephroureterectomy.No recurrence and canceration were found in the ureters of all cases. Conclusions Clinically,exploratory operation and biopsy are very important for suspected disorders of ureter before performing nephroureterectomy.

Objective To investigate the clinical features of anuria caused by pediatric congenital bilateral ureteral stenotic obstruction,and to improve the diagnosis and treatment of the disease.Methods This series included 7 infants(2 males and 5 females;age range,35-57 d) with congenital bilateral ureteral stenotic obstruction.The clinical presentations were characterized by sudden anuria or oliguria.B-ultrasound,cystography and puncture pyelography were performed in all of them,and magnetic resonance urography(MRU) in 3.Based on the definite diagnosis,resection of stenotic segment of the ureter or ureteral implantation was performed on them.Results The diagnosis was confirmed by puncture pyelography in all of the 7 cases.Six cases underwent phase I surgery and recovered.No ureteral stenosis and cystoureteral reflux occurred during a follow-up of 2-4 years.The renal function was normalized in them.One case had stenosis recurrence due to scar formation,and was cured by the second operation.Conclusions Anuria caused by pediatric congenital bilateral ureteral stenosis should be diagnosed and treated as early as possible.Definite diagnosis can be established by puncture pyelography and MRU.Resection of the obstructive segment of the ureter,protection of renal function,and ureteral implantation are the main therapies.
