Objective To explore the clinico-biological characteristics, treatment and prognosis of salivary duct carcinoma. Methods This study included 12 cases of salivary duct carcinoma treated in our hospital. Clinical data were retrospectively analyzed for patients admitted between April 1995 and October 2006. The clinical characteristics, histological features, imaging, therapy methods and prognosis were analyzed. Results Of 12 salivary duct carcinoma, there were 10 males, 2 females. The age of onset ranged from 53 to 73 year old and the average was 56 year old. Physical examination revealed a firm and unboundary mass accompanied by nerve infiltrating symptom. The histological appearance was characterized by solid cell nests with ductal structures and central comedonecrosis. Extensive resection and radical neck dissection was performed in 11 patients, postoperation radiation done in 10 patients and chemotherapy in 3 patients. One year survival rate was 83. 33% , that of 3 years was 41. 67% , and of 5 years was 25. 00% , the median survival time was 36 months. Conclusion Salivary duct carcinoma is a rare malignant salivary tumor and most patients are men. Regional extensive resection and postoperative radiation or chemotherapy are the mainstay of therapy. Lymph node metastases in level Ⅰ ,Ⅱ , Ⅲ are a common finding in patients with SDC and the prognosis is poor.

PurposeTo explore the left ventricle flow propagation process in patients with chronic heart failure (CHF) using velocity flow mapping. Materials and Methods Patients with CHF (n=25) were selected as CHF group. Healthy subjects (n=28) were chosen as the control group. Flow reversal interval (FRI), flow reversal rate (FRR), corrected flow reversal rate (CFRI) and flow rate in peak ejection (FRPE) were measured. Parameters related to the vortex in CHF group were compared with that in the control group. Results Compared with the control group, FRI was longer [(71±13) msvs. (113±30) ms, P<0.05], FRR and FRPE were lower [(46.85±21.35) cm2/svs. (27.90±16.77) cm2/s;(74.54±9.10) cm2/svs. (41.12±17.25) cm2/s,P<0.05] in CHF group. FRI and CFRI were positively correlated with the Tei index (r=0.812 and 0.849,P<0.01). FRI was negatively correlated with LVEF, FS, SV, CO, CI (r=-0.646--0.515,P<0.05 orP<0.01). CFRI was negatively correlated with LVEF, FS, SV, CO and CI (r=-0.685--0.456,P<0.05 orP<0.01); FRR was negatively correlated with Tei index (r=-0.604,P<0.05), and was positively correlated with LVEF, FS, SV, CO and CI (r=0.503-0.812,P<0.05 orP<0.01);FRPE was negatively correlated with Tei index (r=-0.734,P<0.01), and were positively correlated with LVEF, FS, SV, CO and CI (r=0.557-0.776,P<0.05 orP<0.01).Conclusion Velocity flow mapping can demonstratecardiac hydromechanics in patients with chronic heart failure. The heart blood flow direction reversal efficiency may be a new method for diagnosis and treatment evaluation.

Objective:To evaluate the role of Tg in diagnosis of lateral cervical lymph node recurrence in papillary thyoid cancer(PTC)after radioactive iodine(RAI) therapy.Methods:From Jan 2012 to Aug 2018, 22 PTC patients who received RAI therapy after operation were reoperated for lateral cervical lymph node recurrence. The clinical data was retrospectively analyzed.Results:The median recurrence time was 30.5 (5-86) months. All 22 patients received RAI therapy after the first operation, and the median dose of RAI was 250mCi(100-700 mCi) and the episode of RAI therapy ranged from 1 to 4. All 22 PTC patients underwent neck reoperation, among which 20 cases were identified to have lymph node metastasis. The median number of lymph nodes dissected was 31 (8-83) and median number of metastatic lymph nodes was 4 (1-19) . The diagnostic accuracy of ultrasonography in detecting lymph node metastasis was 90.9%. Before reoperation, the median Tg was 1.305 (0.10-99.51) μg/L, with the cutoff value of Tg being 0.2 μg/L, and its sensitivity and specificity were 80.0% and 100%, respectively. The median stimulated Tg was 5.89 (0.14-255.80) μg/L in the 10 patients, with the cutoff value of stimulated Tg of 2 μg/L, and its sensitivity and specificity were 88.9% and 100%, respectively.Conclusions:The serum Tg level is helpful for monitoring the recurence of PTC, but recurrence cannot be completely ruled out for those with low Tg.
