There was significant difference between above two groups (? 2=37.25 P

Objective To analyze clinicopathologic features and treatment strategy of postsurgical incidental papillary thyroid microcarcinoma(PTMC).Methods A total of 305 patients undergoing surgery for thyroid diseases from Apr.2012 to Mar.2013 were retrospectively analyzed.Results Among the 305 patients,19 patients(18 females and 1 male)showed PTMC incidentally after surgery.The mean age was (43.2 ± 12.8)years (ranging from 23 to 67 years old).All patients underwent subtotal thyroidectomy,including 17 endoscopic surgery and 2 open surgery.All frozen sections were benign during operation while pathologic results were PTMC after surgery.The average size of tumors was(2.2 ± 1.5) mm which all was unicentric with no lymph node enlargement intraoperatively.Immunohistochemistry showed that the positive rate of cytokeratin 19,galectin-3,mesothelial cell,and CD56 was 87.5％,43.8％,81.3％ and 18.8％,respectively.There were 4 cases of B-raf V600E mutation found in 6 patients.All patients discharged 1 to 3 days after surgical treatment with no complication and received levothyroxine therapy with a suppressive dose of thyrotropin(TSH).131I therapy was not given.Conclusions PTMC is found more common in female and younger age under 45 years.Tumor is usually unicentric and less than 5 mm.Lymph node metastasis is rare.Immunohistochemistry and B-raf V600E mutant test can help the diagnosis.Initial endoscopic subtotal thyroidectomy is effective.There is no need of further surgery and 131I therapy.

The recent development and wide application of ultrasonography and ultrasonography-guided fine needle aspiration biopsy have greatly facilitated the detection of papillary thyroid microcarcinoma (PTMC).Currently, the occurrence, development and pathological features of PTMC are not clearly understood.Therefore, no consensus on the diagnosis and treatment has been reached.Patients with PTMC are suggested to be closely observed and periodically examined with ultrasonography in some countries such as Japan, and these patients are to be operated when the tumor enlarged or new lymphatic metastasis are found.Operation is the first choice in the European and American countries, and the long-term survival rates of these patients are nearly 100％.For the PTMC patients with the risk factors such as thyroid capsule invasion, lymphatic metastasis,multi-focal lesion, higher degree of malignancy, thyroid stimulating hormone suppression therapy was given after operation, which may reduce the local recurrence rate.In China, we should hold well thelimitation and choose the best way for different patients according to the personalized principle in clinical practice.

Objective To compare the different methods for treating aerobic vaginitis and mixed clinical effects of infection.Methods A randomized controlled method was used,298 cases of aerobic vaginitis and mixed infections were randomly divided into control group(149 cases):the use of combination anti -infective therapy,the treatment group(149 cases):the use of combination anti -infective at the same treatment plus lactobacillus vaginal medication.And the therapeutic effect was evaluated.Results The difference of the clinical efficacy of aerobic vagi-nitis treatment of mixed infections was not statistically significant (total effective rate of 95.3% in the treatment group,92.6% in the control group).With the time of treatment extended,the effective rate increased,the use of com-bination anti -infective therapy at the same time plus lactobacillus vaginal administration group of aerobic bacteria vaginosis and recurrence rate was significantly reduced in patients with mixed infection (recurrence rate was 6.0% in the treatment group and 12.8% was in the control group,χ2 =3.941 3,P <0.05).Conclusion The combination of anti -infective therapy at the same time plus lactobacillus vaginal drug treatment aerobic mixed infections and vagini-tis has slightly higher effective rate than the use of combination anti -infective treatment,the former relapse rate was significantly reduced.
