OBJECTIVE:
To discuss the diagnosis and effective treatment of cystic lymphangiomas located in head and neck in children.
METHOD:
Fifteen cystic lymphangiomas,diagnosed with pathological evidence, located in head and neck in children were retrospectively analyzed including clinical characteristics, diagnosis, treatment and follow-up data.
RESULT:
CT and ultrasonography were used to evaluate the size, shape and extent of lymphangiomas in all patients. All patients were treated with surgery. Complete resection was performed in 14 cases, and subtotal resection in one case. Two post-operative complications were found,one was paralyses of mandibular branch of facial nerve, another was Horners syndrome. Tracheotomy operation was done in one case,and the tracheal cannula was taken away before discharged from hospital. Fourteen patients were followed up. There was no recurrence during the follow-up from 6 months to 8 years, while one case who suffered from Horner's syndrome after operation was not cured.
CONCLUSION
CT and ultrasonography are effective to diagnose cystic lymphangiomas and evaluate the security of clinical treatment. Total or subtotal resection is effective to treat cystic lymphangiomas.

Objective:To compare the clinical features of patients with acute Vogt-Koyanagi-Harada syndrome (VKH syndrome) of optic disc swelling (ODS) and serous retinal detachment (RD).Methods:A retrospective clinical study. From January 2013 to November 2019, 212 patients with acute VKH syndrome diagnosed in the Department of Ophthalmology of Shanghai Xuhui District Central Hospital were included in the study. Among them, there were 105 males (210 eyes) and 107 females (214 eyes). The average age was 40.84±13.90 years. All affected eyes were examined by BCVA, FFA, and OCT. The standard logarithmic visual acuity chart was used for BCVA examination, which was converted into logMAR visual acuity in statistics. According to the changes in the fundus, the patients were divided into the ODS group and the RD group, 36 patients with 72 eyes (16.98%) and 176 patients with 352 eyes (83.02%), respectively. The independent sample t test was performed to compare the age of onset, visit time and BCVA of the two groups of patients, the χ2 test was performed to compare the count data. Results:Among the 72 eyes of 36 patients in the ODS group, there were 16 males with 32 eyes (44.44%), 20 females with 40 eyes (55.56%). The average age was 40.56±16.57 years, the average visit time was 22.47±19.98 days, the average logMAR BCVA was 0.68±0.53. Among the 352 eyes of 176 patients in the RD group, there were 89 male patients with 178 eyes (50.56%), and 87 female patients with 174 eyes (49.43%). The average age was 40.90±13.34 years, the average visit time was 17.25±24.40 days, the average logMAR BCVA was 0.80±0.56. The average age ( t=-0.116), gender composition ratio ( χ2=0.448), average visit time ( t=1.204), average logMAR BCVA ( t=-1.661) comparisons between the two groups showed no statistically significant differences ( P>0.05). There was no statistically significant difference in the average logMAR BCVA between the RD group and the ODS group of different eyes ( t=0.227, 0.810; P>0.05). There were 50 (69.44%, 50/72) and 272 (77.27%, 272/352) eyes in the ODS group and RD group with inflammation of the anterior segment. There were anterior segment reactions between the two groups. There was no statistically significant difference in the number of eyes ( χ2=1.003, P>0.05). There were 34 (19.32%, 34/176) and 2 (5.56%, 2/36) patients with headache and hearing loss, respectively. The comparison of the number of patients with headache and hearing loss between the two groups showed statistically significant differences ( χ2=4.015, P<0.05). Conclusion:Compared the patients with ODS acute VKH syndrome, the patients with serous RD acute VKH syndrome are more likely to have extraocular symptoms such as headache and hearing loss.

Objective:To analyze the distribution of clinically isolated fungal strains and their resistance to common antifungal drugs in Shandong province.Methods:Through the Shandong Children’s Bacterial & Fungal Drug Resistance Surveillance and Research Collaborative Network, a total of 1 030 fungi were collected in 46 hospitals of Shandong province from January 1 to December 31, 2018. The source and type of strains were analyzed, and antifungal drug sensitivity tests were performed by using the micro-dilution method. Whonet 5.6 and SPSS 22.0 were applied to analyze the data.Results:The overall main strains were Candida albicans (38.74%, 399/1 030), Candida tropicalis (16.99%, 175/1 030) and Candida parapsilosis (16.41%, 169/1 030); the main fungi strains in child patients were C. albicans (52.50%, 63/120), C. parapsilosis (12.50%, 15/120) and C. tropicalis (9.17%, 11/120); the main fungi strains in adult patients were C. albicans (36.37%, 331/910), C. tropicalis (17.03%, 155/910) and C. parapsilosis (15.27%, 139/910). The isolation rate of main Candida strains from January to March and August to December was much higher than that of other months. The drug resistance rates of C. albicans to fluconazole and voriconazole were 7.14% and 7.43%, respectively, and the drug resistance rates to itraconazole were 50.44%. The resistance rates of C. tropicalis to fluconazole, voriconazole and itraconazole were 29.05%, 23.29% and 48.65%, respectively. The sensitivity rates of C. parapsilosi to fluconazole, voriconazole and itraconazole were 93.06%, 93.75% and 94.44%, respectively. Candida glabrata showed a dose-dependent sensitivity rate of 2.33% to fluconazole. Analysis of 244 blood fungi strains showed that non-candida albicans bacteremia accounted for 70.08%. In the pathogen spectrum covering 92.22%, fluconazole was sensitive to 64.65% of the pathogens, voriconazole was 68.88%, and amphotericin B was 88.75%. After quantification, the effective rates of fluconazole, voriconazole and amphotericin B in the clinical treatment of fungal bacteremia were 70.10%, 74.69% and 96.23%, respectively. Among them, the sensitivity rate of voriconazole to C. tropicalis was lower than that of fluconazole. Conclusions:Candida is the main clinical fungus isolates in hospitals of Shandong province. The resistance rate of C. tropicalis to azole antifungal drugs is on the rise, and the sensitivity of other Candida species to clinically used antifungal drugs is basically stable.
